Note: The lighting techniques you see me using in this video are exactly the same ones I teach in my flash portrait photography course. While the other photographer at this shoot was using big high-powered studio lights, I'm just using little battery-powered Speedlite flashes. By the end of the day, he was so impressed with my easy, portable, flexible setup that he was asking me for gear recommendations. If you want to learn how you can shoot like this with just your digital SLR and your hot-shoe flash, check out my flash portrait photography course.
