A quick note on gear:

I am well into my late photography career. I am at a point where I can and should (for write offs) buy the best gear available to me (for the most part). However there are plenty of alternatives for getting the job done with varying budgets. If you need specific advice on buying gear, feel free to reach out.


In this video I discuss how to use flash at an event. I get into a lot here, including some more advanced flash techniques. But I also discuss when to use flash, when to use flash when you might not necessarily need it, how to make your flash seamlessly blend in with your available light, and so much more.

(one correction I need to make: you can wirelessly trigger an external flash if your camera has a built in flash. But otherwise, you will need some sort of trigger)

If you have not already watched my video on using flash in TTL mode vs Manual mode, then I strongly recommend you check it out:
