Most of these talks dont get me engaged right from the start and I click off. First time seeing her and she is excellent!

Is Good For you
You need a Little from Sun

None of them should be on the same plane (5:10), is the simplest no bull explanation I have heard about the issue.
Aw man her tone of voice is aggressive not something I want to hear talk for 16 minutes sounds like I'm listening to my drill instructor..
Amazing! Thank you for this!
👍
Very well explained. 👍
Didn’t know this was focused on infants, but really enjoyed it. Concern for all subjects came through strongly. Thank you.
You bring up so many great points regarding newborns that I’ve never heard addressed in the Public Health community that I’ll be sharing with my former colleagues at a state health department. Portraits with a newborn are so common, and, as you illustrate, they present opportunities for problems that need to be addressed.
This is an amazing video and she presented well. I’m glad I came across it
Julia you're amazing
Very helpful. Thank you.
At 8:25 I thought the problem was her neck and bad posture.
Make it clear in the title this is targeted for maternity photography. Some generally useful tips, but a waste with all the maternity specifics.
Thank you so much for telling people to get vaccinated.
Great video! Not a bunch of technobabble that puts you to sleep. Just great presentation of technique. Learned more about posing in 16 minutes than I did in a 4 hour workshop
Excellent visuals in this tutorial, thank you. Simple and to the point.
Awesome
wow i like that safety part, when i first saw the poses with a baby i asked myself how did she get these poses safely. thanks for reminding us that. awesome presentation.
#slrlounge style. Just bad.
THANKS !!!
Great, thorough presentation.
Annoying voice sorry
Funny someone else mentions this too, as soon as I saw her I was thinking Bambi jr. I love how a lot of Creativelives guest are starting to wear their best clothes, not! What is it with these torn up jeans and stuff. Jen Rozenbaum does it too. I think it's silly and and unprofessional, especially if your not a teen. I get it, your trying to look cool and hip and down with the peep's, but you also want to look like you know what your talking about. Would you like a family to show up for a shoot and all be dressed like this, not me. Also as nice as she seems to be, she is just re saying stuff that has been said by Bambi, Sue and many of the other guests.
45 landscape photographers hated this video!!
I Just loved it!
I don't know why people are calling her a b** or saying this was a terrible presentation… I think she is flipping awesome! Straight to the point, informative and articulate…Better than the infinite many tutorials of 20 something year olds who have been shooting for maybe a year and say "like" and " or whatever" every 3 seconds and raise their voice as though asking a question every time they explain a camera setting….
2:18 The pause, the helplessness, the frustration… "posing does not have to be perfection"…. That's when i stopped watching. She was, is and always be right….. Care more about the light than about posing.
