Flash Photography For Headshots and Portraits | Course Module 2 of 4 

My premium courses are available at veroskycourses.com

Hands down. Your tutorial is one of the best on RU-vid. People pay money to get such information. Thank you for sharing this with us. This is a million dollar info for a hobbyist like me. Thanks once again! I will definitely print out this tutorial

One thing that's great about RU-vid is so many resource videos. One bad thing about RU-vid is weeding through the crap. So many people blow through and blow over subjects just to show you an overview of their style or what they do without the technicalities of what's actually going on. Thus, as a viewer we really don't learn anything we're just wasting valuable minutes. I just wanted to really say thank you thank you thank you for making a true tutorial. One that we can actually learn and absorbed from. One that we can use for the rest of our lives from the knowledge that has been given. This for video tutorial that you put together has changed the course of my photography for the rest of my life. Thank you

Finally for the love of God!!! A comprehensive and excellently presented video on flash...Thank you Ed !!!!

I can’t belive you gave all of this for free, thank you ED❤️

You are in a roll this evening (21:30 here). Everything covered in a perfect logical way, it made total sense all the way through. What a wonderful Christmas present to give to your viewers and I wish this had been available quite a few years ago. I did watch your other series though when I first started using a studio setup which was incredibly helpful.

Loving this series. Thank you 🙏

How does this very competent and effective man not have a million subscribers? He is a great teacher, does not try to be funny or always “on”, and does not make us listen to him talk over music.

What a great series. This puts it all together in one place. I’m watching this four-part series as fast as I can digest it.

Ottimo lavoro , grazie dei preziosi consigli

Thank you so much Ed, tried your advice on lady freind Lindsey, a lot of trial and error, but eventually really good portrait,s, with catch light,s in her eye,s. Bit of work in post, I reckon pro standard. Trying to standadsize camera setting,s iso, f-stop, etc so it,s second nature, you know it work,s.

Obrigado!

Wow great

Tnk U

If i may ask. What were u settings in camera for exposure? Because im having a hard time with that and thank u for the knowledge. Much appreciated

thanks ed, yours is one of the few channels i subscribe to. i always use my speedlight for bounce , but want to try umbrellas. given the small, directional flashtube of speedlights, how is the light spreading to cover the circumference of the umbrella? is there something in the softbox you introduce at about the 7:30 time in the video that bounces the light around the softbox?

I would suggest you also recommend beginners to get a sturdy S type (Bowen) clamp/mount as it's much safer and protects flash somewhat in the event of a fall

Ure the best

hello Ed, thanks a lot for great tutorial .. noticing your backdrop here .. I was wondering if you could suggest a good backdrop stands that i can order online? I am trying to turn a little bedroom into studio my space for backdrop is limited to 2.5 M wide and 3 M height . thanks a lot.

Thanks Stallone

I'm confused. In the first picture the one off camera is the one with the shadows on her face and on camera looks great

My question is : if we are using a TTL flash on camera then flash itself adjust the exposure according to the flash but when we use same flash as a off camera the how TTL system works or how flash read or take a correct exposure reading according to the flash In short my question is : when we use the off camera flash we don't know how much of light flash give on the subject

Is this series what you were working on during your sporadic posting or is it from one of your courses that you just decided to make public? It's hard to tell as you really look no different than your videos from 6 years ago. Not that it matters, I still enjoy seeing how others handle these tasks.

Did anyone else noticed Kraftwerk's Florian Schneider head used as a prop?

From umbrella flashlight how long distance can I stand away from the model

👍🥂
