Attention all you "natural light" photographers, now is the time to expand your photographic skill set by adding flash photography to your tool kit.
It's not difficult. With a few rounds of experimentation your photography will elevate itself to new levels and your work will stand out. These photography lighting tips will work for all genres of photography - wedding photography, portrait photography, senior photography, fashion photography, boudoir photography and more.
In this step-by-step flash lighting tutorial I will explain techniques like dragging the shutter and how you can use that technique to allow more ambient light into your portraits and add more depth to any shot.

I was worried about blurry pictures because you dropped the shutter so low , but now I understand the flash staying at 200

Great lesson. This is one of the points of contention with many beginners who don't realize that the key to mixing ambient and flash is the shutter speed. The speed limit analogy is very good and I'm stealing it.

i promise you it will never matter... unless your ambient is exact to mine, and the distance of the light is exact to mine and the models skin is exact... etc it will never help you recreate. id rather see you learn the techniques and experiment to grow that way. trust me... its how i learned. :) but i will work harder in future videos to try and bring that up.

Good.. but if 1/60 is still to much and we do not want to close aperture? Nd filter or hss?
@SalCincotta1
@SalCincotta1 5 месяцев назад
both options have the opposite effect. they are going ot let LESS light in. your goal here is to let MORE ambient in... so the solution would be to increase ISO. hope that makes sense.
@SusanneGeert
@SusanneGeert 4 месяца назад
Thanks for this great video! I am a bit confused after seeing another video recently: The photographer there explained that even though the flash freezes the motion on the subject you still can't use too slow/low shutter speeds since there can be created blur (as I remember he said from the ambient light). So, is that because it's so dark that you can photograph at shutter speeds of 1/60 and 1/20 sec. (and would you not ba able to to this is daylight even if you wanted to create a more dramatic look with less ambient light and more flash light)? Thanks a lot in advance and thanks for all your great and super helpful content 🫶
@SalCincotta1
@SalCincotta1 4 месяца назад
Not sure what video watch, but that video is probably someone accurate. It depends on overall brightness of the scene so because it’s so dark here we get away with it and you can’t see any of that blur because we frozen the action however, if it were a little brighter you wouldn’t be able to get away with it, but if it were a little bit brighter, I’m more than likely wouldn’t be shooting at 1/60 of a second. Does that make more sense?
@SusanneGeert
@SusanneGeert 4 месяца назад
@@SalCincotta1 Thanks for such a quick reply 🙌 Yes, it does make sense. Just to be sure I understand - how low a shutter speed would you typically expect to be able to shoot at images like these in day light (with an adult model standing still or moving slowly)?
@SalCincotta1
@SalCincotta1 4 месяца назад
@@SusanneGeertso... you have to apply more context to what you are trying to do... so for this example... im shooting in very dark conditions.. if the shutter goes at 200/sec she would be on a BLACK background and we lose the environment... so the flash hits her and then the shutter remains open (because its slower) allowing all that yellow light in fromm the background. if it were brighter... this wouldnt be used at all. you would start moving into whats known as high speed sync. a different technique all together.
@MyWorld-bu4ib
@MyWorld-bu4ib 9 месяцев назад
Will the 1/50 or 1/20 prevent motion blur if the flash was on camera instead of using a large softbox?
@SalCincotta1
@SalCincotta1 9 месяцев назад
will more than likely have the same effect of freezing the action - assuming your flash exposure is correct.
@DmitryBrodsky007
@DmitryBrodsky007 9 месяцев назад
Great video. I understand the flash will still hit your model at fast speed and freeze her. However, is camera shake still an issue under these conditions?
@michiuno2238
@michiuno2238 9 месяцев назад
It's a a question of what your proportions of ambient vs flash are on your subject. If you're blocking out almost all your ambient, you're freezing the foreground. The background is purposfully out of focus (F1.2). What little camera shake might happen, it will influence the background only where you don't care whether it's a bit more out of focus. However, if you capture a lot of ambient and only brighten the shadows on your subject a little bit with your flash, your subject picks up a lot of ambient light as well which means camera shake is visible on the subject.
@DmitryBrodsky007
@DmitryBrodsky007 9 месяцев назад
@@michiuno2238 make sense. Then we are not only talking about a camera shake but also about a subject 'shake'. I remember learning long time ago that generally people just naturally move and it is hard to get a perfectly still photo of a person at shutter speed slower than 1/60. When I say hard I mean it is possible if your subject is perfectly and I mean perfectly still but it is hard. Going back to Sal's example, if he lowers the shutter speed to 1/25 or 1/20 as he said at the end, you introduce enough ambient light that can capture the model 'shake' at such speed?
@michiuno2238
@michiuno2238 9 месяцев назад
@@DmitryBrodsky007 That would depend on so many factors: focal length, distance to object, ratio of intensity of ambient to flash, distance to flash, and probably many more. As a general principle: If the portion of ambient is significant in relationship to the light from the flash on the subject, the impact of camera or object shake can be significant. Whether it is or not depends on whether you would observe motion blur on the subject without flash (how steady are you and the subject, distance, focal length, IBIS, shutter speed)
@SalCincotta1
@SalCincotta1 9 месяцев назад
shake can always be an issue... but if you follow what im showing you - the flash freezes them. of course... its all relative.. if they are moving like in sports - there is going to be some action blur, but that might be the look you are going for. my advice is to get out there and play with this technique to learn its limitations!! enjoy!

@SalCincotta1

How does hss solve this problem? Hss is used when your shutter speed is OVER 200th of a second. So if you make your shutter speed faster what happens to the ambient light? Gone.
