Scott Kelby, author of the best-selling
The Digital Photography Book,brings to life
his “Photo Recipes” chapter—not just from this book, but from his
smash best-selling follow-ups, volumes 2 and 3. In this two-hour
video, Scott shows you exactly how it’s all done, from scratch,
without holding anything back.
If you’ve ever wondered how the pros use natural light, studio
light, and even direct daylight to get those amazing shots, you’ll
see it all here, live, as it happens. Most of the shoot takes place
in an amazing New York City loft photo studio as Scott re-creates
the looks he describes in the book, along with some bonus lighting
set-ups that aren’t in the book, to create a very special learning
experience you won’t find anywhere else.
Everything is put together from scratch (from studio shots to
location shots to product photography), all while the cameras are
rolling—you see it all from the very beginning so you’ll be able to
re-create those same looks without spending thousands on expensive
high-end equipment. Best of all, Scott explains everything in
simple, plain English, just like he’d tell a friend, using the same
casual, conversational style that made his series of books a
worldwide sensation. If you’ve ever wondered “how they do it,”
you’re about to find out in this amazing DVD/book combo that shows
how easy this all can be—once you know the secrets.
