  • In this video, I will be giving you some tips and tricks to start your Off-Camera Flash Journey. I start if off by discussing the Basic concepts you need to know about your flash system, like Manual or TTL mode, Flash Sync Speed and High Speed Sync (HSS). Then, I discuss the 5 Exposure variables for Flash Photography. Lastly, I share my thoughts and the process on how I apply these concepts in how I light while showing you some Behind the Scenes Photos and the actual output of those BTS.
    Camera Equipment: Sony A7R MarkII and MarkIII
    Lenses: Sony GMasters and Zeiss Batis Lenses
    Flash Units: Phottix Mitros+ for Sony and the Phottix Indra500

    Just something about me…
    Since prior to my entry into the wedding industry, I have been considered to be one of the most reputable lighting specialists in the Philippines, conducting workshops nationwide and have been featured in various photography magazines. I was also a multi-awarded portrait and advertising photographer.
    My expertise is in manipulating ambient and artificial light to create clean and classic photographs which naturally led me to the genre of portrait and wedding photography. Since then, I have shot numerous weddings locally and overseas exhibiting my signature style.
    I am also a Sony Philippines Brand Ambassador,
    Zeiss Camera Lens South East Asia Local Ambassador and International Phottix Pro Teamer.

    THE BEST video I have ever seen explaining the concepts of off-camera flash.

    Loved the photos. I think it may be the best video on the subject I've seen so far. Good job. Plus: I'm really impressed with the light control in the video recording; so many photographers (who shoot amazing pictures) have weird lighting in their video narrations - you're in full control of it. Wonderful.

    Wow, truly stunning imagery. Thank you so much. This is exactly the type of video I love. The before and after with explanation of settings really helps close the disconnect between how my "properly exposed" (aka boring) looking pics look and how other photographers are able to create such impressive dramatic art. Please continue these videos. You are awesome

    I have been photographing for a few years, had exhibitions, watched online courses and videos but nothing gave me so much clarity as your videos. And also, I really hated flash photography until this video here! I followed you on IG as well, learning a lot from you even though we have very different styles!

    VERY useful! Now that you explained that the shutter speed controls the ambient light, & the aperture controls the flash, I bet I will have more successful off-camera flash images, & will also succeed with experimental ideas. Also helpful: all the properly exposed vs flash examples. Thank you for this video! Salute!

    Your timeline around 1120 you mentioned your assistant took the picture, and you preferred your pic. I Myself choose his as it more of non common photo, and you can crop in if needed. Your chosen pic doesn't really set a tone other than just a standard picture, with the shadows directly behind them. However both images are cool. Thanks for your provided info.
