Oh my god! Oh my god! Such a good shot the background, it's perfect. So, look at that! I think this is the most beautiful spot I've ever filmed. Hey, welcome to another video. In today's video we're going to do a portrait shoot at one of the most prettiest beaches of North New Zealand. Or at least, that's what I've read on the internet. I've never been, I actually tried to go to that beach last year but there was a cyclone so I couldn't enter. Still, got some pretty cool shots of the cyclone but didn't get the chance to shoot there. So that's exactly what we're going to be doing today. Ding ding ding! Ready for round two in this video? I arranged a model, her name is Natalie and I've actually photographed her as well last year when I was in New Zealand. I'm going to shoot during sunset. And if you're watching this and it is wintertime where you are, hopefully this way I can bring the summer a bit more to you. So sit down, relax, watch me shoot and yeah! Before we head off, I'll just quickly run you through what I'm bringing to the photo shoots. My Canon R6 with a 35mm f1.4 from Sigma on top of it already. The 50mm f1.4 from Sigma. The 105mm f2.8. Okay, so I got a whole bag of snacks and this is honestly a life-saving trick for your photo shoots. Because there's nothing more annoying than you getting hungry or the moto is getting hungry. So always make sure you've got some snacky jay! Hello! Embedded! Natalie here doing the makeup. Beautiful. Look at that rock! That's so beautiful! What the heck! I don't know where... Okay, so I actually brought a towel just so I can put my camera back on top of that because I've had plenty of times the sand got into my gear or into my laptop. And it was in Bali and the sand got into my laptop and now it just makes this really weird noise. Okay, so I'm going to start over with my 50mm. I think that'd be great for the first location. Wow! Beautiful! Okay, so I'm sort of looking for a bit more of a compressed look. So I'm going for the 105mm from Sigma as well. I'm gonna stand very far away. My lens is very zoomed in. I reckon I'll walk over there. Ah! It's really beautiful. My might swap lenses but I love the... Oh my god, the top is... Oh my god, that's such a good shot. The background is perfect. Maybe whilst the sun is still going sort of lean against this rock. Nice! Oh no! Oh my god! Oh! Okay, the sun is going down so fast so we have to hurry but now I'm just going to get some wide shields with the 35mm. I think that would be so nice really shoot the surrounding so let's do it. If you stay there I'll just walk back. If you can do a really big movement again I'll just use this whole rock formation behind you. Okay, the sunset's getting pretty and pretty every second. I'm literally vlogging with the tripod still on the camera. It looks so stupid but we have to be quick because look the tide is coming in as well and the sun is going. Ah it's so gorgeous! Use a little sun flare. And I can frame Natalie exactly behind the sunshine. Maybe we can try like maybe sit here. Wow! I think this is the most beautiful spot I've ever filmed like a photograph like what the heck. I'm going to be switching for my 50mm to the 105mm just to get some nice close-up shots of Natalie's face. Let's do it! Wow! Yeah, nice! That's beautiful! Now it's only your head and a bit of your hands. I'm going to ride you now. I might take a stroll from very far away but your whole body is going in at the foot. Wow! We'll just be quick. Yeah, nice. So as you can see I'm sort of like shaping the rock around Natalie. It's really pretty if that way she stands out because the background is dark. Great things never gone from comfort zones. Is it a ride for you just to climb? Do you see it as a rock here? Yeah, like you sort of like sit on top of it. Okay as you can see it's still like such a beautiful sunset. We just finished up shooting but we sort of we had to stop because the tide was coming in so high and this beach is famous for it's like extreme rips and ties and stuff so yeah I think it's a good cold that we left but we got some amazing shots. How did you think we did? Amazing! Yeah right? I was always a bit cold now though. I can't wait to eat some food and get a jacket. Yeah, my favourite food. Put the heater on. And that's the end of the photoshoot. I really hope you enjoyed this photoshoot as much as I did. So we shot for about an hour and a half and I feel like we got a nice variety of shots. When I came down to the editing of these photos I used my preset pack which you can find in the description down below. My pack consists out of 25 presets, 3 bonus presets and I've also added 28 editing tutorials as well. So yeah and if you're ever in North New Zealand 100% check out this beach it looked like something from F-Tar. It was so beautiful as you've seen. I really hope you enjoyed watching this video and I also hope to see you in the next one. Okay bye bye! Doi! You thought I was gonna end the video but as I promised in my latest YouTube video I am giving away three fog machines of balancees. So one of the rules of this giveaway was is that you had to share on which photoshoot you would use the fog machine and it took me ages to go through all the ideas and I've seen so many good ones. And the first one is couldn't w and I'm sorry if I'm butchering all the YouTube names. It's sometimes so hard to pronounce and here's the idea was to use the fog during a portrait shoot of firefighters and fire trucks which I think will be so cool. It will be the fog will be such a cool addition to this photoshoot so congrats! Then the next one is MMCaptina. And here's idea is to shoot during a mountain bike photoshoot so he shoots mountain bikes with friends and he wants to put the fog machine in the place where the mountain bikers come through but there are ferns around it which apparently only grow once a year and I don't know I can really envision how this is gonna turn out so make sure to send me your photos as well I'm very excited to see it but congrats to you and this idea is very well thought out which I really appreciate it's cool to see. And then the last one is AppsFric 1 videos 535 congratulations and his first idea is cool but then I read the second idea and he wrote that he has a full astronaut suit which he wants to shoot in a crazy landscape with the fog rolling from behind the rocks and orange lights walking into the fog sort of a desert five I think it would be really cool it reminds me of a movie but I cannot get the name of it but so congrats to all the winners and I am so sorry if you didn't win and it doesn't mean that your idea was bad but it was just so hard to pick three I wish I could give a fog machine to all of you but I can't. So make sure to send me an email to this email address with your address maybe your phone number and just some information that I need to ship the fog machine to you so yeah make sure to send me an email to this address and yeah thanks for participating and I cannot wait to do more giveaway so bye do it!
