Ask away Questions 3

Today part III of the “ask Frank”.
I’m gonna combine a few because so many questions have come in.

1.
I have been shooting for a few years now and I believe that I have a pretty solid portfolio. I’ve showed it to several pro photographers and have received very positive feedback.
My question is: What would you do if you were in my position and your goal was to start working professionally in advertising or fashion?Thank you!!

 

2.
I would love to hear anything on your marketing and business strategies. You are consistently putting out killer work but how did you go about getting the world’s attention with it? More precisely, what are the top two or three methods, disciplines or strategies that you feel have contributed most to your success?

Ask away Question 2

Today a question about small flash.

I have a question about small flashes. What do you think, I have 2 Nikon flashes SB600 and SB800. What is the best way to trigger them. Buy a Nikon Commander or use Skyports. With the commander I can control the flashes, if I use skyports I’ll have to set them manually. Advantage with skyports is that I can use my RangerRX and maybe use the Nikonflashes as well (just to give some accent light if needed). Also I do have multiple transmitters and receivers already, just need 2 universal receivers for the Nikonflashes. The skyports are working with a radiosignal and the commander is working with infrared.  My first tought is go for the skyports, maybe you have some arguments not to?

Ask away Question 1

Today the first question from our “Ask Frank” blog post.

I would like to ask you about the setting that you use usually for the skin tones in your images. how do you do to get this skin tone in PS or using any filter?

 

Another question is related to Photoshop. if I use a color calibration for the monitor (called it ABC ), I will get a new profile. this profile is different than the profile in the camera (SRGB for example). if I change the profile for the picture from SRGB to ABC i will get totally washed color how can I fix that?

 

thank you for this chance to let us ask you some questions.

 

Regards,
Mohammed
