How To Improve Your Flower Photography with Wireless Flash
Dramatically improve your flower photography by adding light from a wireless flash. If you photograph flowers, you can make them standout by adding light from a wireless flash.
While it is not difficult to photograph flowers, like all outdoor nature photography, we are at the mercy of Mother Nature and that means we don’t always get the light we want. You can this solve this problem by using wireless off camera flash. It can in many cases dramatically improve your photography.
When I know I am photographing wildflowers I will take my Canon 580EXII and the NPT-04 radio triggers and the Fotodiox mini light box to soften the light on flowers. Also, several light stands for multi-flash setups.
My strategy for lighting flowers is I want it to look REAL and not flashed because contrast looks really ugly. I usually use a 100mm macro lens for smaller flowers but today I am using a 28-70mm lens because these flowers are so big. I have set my aperture to f/5.6. and my ISO is 100.
The last thing is when you have a grouping of flowers instead this little mini light box won't cover it. The solution is a larger lightbox like this 18x18 inch one. I am holding the light box over the flowers and the additional light brightened up these foreground flowers nicely. On this final photo I darkened the background by changing the shutter speed from 1 second to 1/4 second and that makes the foreground flowers stand out nicely.

Professional Nature Photographer Thanks 😊. Moved on a lot since my comment. Now have 3 flash units which operate on my micro 4/3rds system. Metz 64 AF-1 with only cable attachment possible for OFF camera use. A cheap ring LED flash for macro shots - manual mode only but good - and Nissin i60A Flash with wireless Air10s for OFF camera use without the need for cables. If anyone ever needs a wireless flash system for micro 4/3rds then Nissin is one of the few that operates. (Note: The Metz Flash wireless system does not work for micro 4/3rds !!) Just bought extension arm unit to use the Nissin Flash OFF camera but physically attached enabling overhead flash light and extra stability due to solid mounting system. All now ready to go with wildlife shots. Only need some good rain free weather in London ha ha !!

Ive been thinking for a while of using flash but haven't done so and have been using ambient light which is fickle. This video makes the process seem very straight forward and easier to understand. I'm interested in how the background can be lit to provide highlights for a few tasteful bokeh balls. I have so far been able to achieve this by my background being tree branches with tiny patches of bright light shining through which give white bokeh balls but have seen photographs where bokeh balls have been a complementary colour and have thought how this might be achieved in shot if not in post processing. I'd rather do as little as possible in post processing.

@jasonluciano8817 4 года назад

Great video! The ambient light for the lupine by the river looked pretty even. Why did you choose to light it from the side vs. front? General thoughts on the position of a flash?

@ProNaturePhotographr 4 года назад

Jason- When you move a light to the side of the subject, you are creating highlights and shadows and that creates shape in the subject. Like a portrait of someone. If the flash is on the cameras hot shoe, it is on the same plane as the lens so the light effect is very flat. All highlight and little shadow as far as shaping the subject with light. But move it to the side of the person and one side will be highlight from the flash and one side will be shadow and this shows shape of the subject. Works the same in nature as well. Charlie

Hi Mike- I use full power on a lot of my subjects without issue, to keep my ISO low. But it depends on the subject and subject-to-flash-distance. I have not heard about avoiding the use of 1/2 or full power so i have no idea why others suggest that. Thanks for the question. Charlie

@AgNO3Shooter 4 года назад

Using a radio controlled Canon 600EXII or Canon 430EXIII would negate the need for a third party radio trigger. Either of these Speedlites may be used on camera instead of the Canon ST-E3_RT to trigger the Speedlite being used to illuminate the flower.

@ProNaturePhotographr 4 года назад

Hey Bruce- Yes, you are absolutely correct. The 600exrt is an awesome system. I had one 600exrt and rented another when i wrote my ebook: Outdoor Flash Photography and included that in the pdf version. I liked it a lot but found it too expensive to expand the system to 3-4 flashes. Since i already have 4 580 series, and then discovered the cheap triggers, i chose that route and it works great.

@AlOne-xg6dv Месяц назад

Just one question : what rules to apply for the distance between the flash and the subject please ?

@ProNaturePhotographr Месяц назад

Two ways to look at this. If the flash is set to TTL (thru the lens) then when the flash-to-subject distance changes, the flash automatically adjusts the flash output level to compensate for the change in distance. So, moving closer to the subject tells the flash to output less light or moving further away, the flash metering knows to output more light for good flash exposure. The other option is setting the flash to manual flash output where you have to manually change the output level on the flash when moving closer or further away. This can be more challenging compared to TTL. So you take a test exposure and evaluate it it. Too bright or too dark? If too dark, then increase the flash output level, such as 1/4 power to 1/2 power. Too bright, then lower output level from 1/4 to 1/8th. Evaluate again and if 1/2 power is perfect then exposure will be good on the subject, but if the subject moves and becomes closer or further away, then retest again. If you are shooting a moving subject, then TTL is easier and a stationary subject, then Manuel may be better. That's it! Cheers.

I'm confused - I've two Canon cameras, one activates a flash when the shutter speed is set to 1/200 of a second, the other at 1/250 of a second, so how does the flash activate when the shutter speed is not either of those?????????????

@ProNaturePhotographr Месяц назад

Wow, sorry, I never got a notification that you posted this question. Different cameras can have different sync speeds in each. You have one at 1/200 and 1/25oth and my Canons are the same. In each case, you cannot use a faster shutter speed than what the camera is capable of syncing with. Like 1/200th on one camera is the limit. In both cameras, you can use a long shutter speed without issue, like 1/100th or 1 second, but nothing faster than those sync speeds. With today's advanced cameras, when you set a sync speed faster than the designated speed if often automatically reverts to the designated sync speed cuz it knows speeds faster wont work. If you want to use a faster speed than sync speed, you would use Slow Sync Mode and that comes with most cameras. But there is a challenge there and it can create major technical challenges because of the rapid decrease in flash output level. There are many videos on that topic here if you are interested. Best wishes, and sorry I missed your message. Charlie

1/60? why such a slow shutter speed? I use iso 400 and increase the speed. But I go handheld so I am fighting wind and my own movements. But taking all that equipment into the field? Nope. You are better off just doing it in a studio

@ProNaturePhotographr 4 года назад

Photographing in the studio is an option and I have done that, but that look would be different and its a completely different approach. You cant easily replicate grass and twigs and that out of focus background in the studio, that you can get in the field. 'Taking all that equipment into the field' is a personal choice. I get asked to do outdoor portraits from time to time and I take all that equipment because adding light to many subjects makes them look better than simply ramping up ISO.
