The Ultimate Flash Photography Guide
Original price was: $79.00.$29.00Current price is: $29.00.
The Ultimate One-Light Flash Photography Guide is a 100-page, 37 lesson, downloadable guide that teaches you how to understand, position, and control one strobe to create the results you want.
I cover everything from light distance, softness, feathering, and flash power to balancing flash with ambient light using HSS. You’ll see how I light individuals and groups at wide apertures, work in full sun, open shade, and indoor environments, and troubleshoot common lighting problems. You don’t need to have an assistant to hold the light to achieve the same results.
Throughout the guide, I share actual photographs, behind-the-scenes examples, lighting diagrams, camera settings, and explanations of WHY I made certain decisions.
The goal isn’t to have you memorize my lighting setups. It’s to help you understand what your light is doing so you can make those decisions for yourself, regardless of where you’re photographing.
The Ultimate One-Light Flash Photography Guide
100 pages and 37 lessons of real-world lighting examples, behind-the-scenes photographs, lighting diagrams, and explanations of why I made the decisions I made.
Sometimes when you're learning flash, you want to have the information readily available on your phone and not on a YouTube Channel. You need to see immediately what's the first step you should take.
I've spent nearly 25 years photographing people, and one thing I've learned is that understanding light is far more important than memorizing camera settings or lighting setups.
I created this guide because I wanted to show photographers how I actually work with one strobe. Not just where I position my light, but WHY I put it there, what I'm looking for, and how I make adjustments depending on the environment I'm working in.
And everything in this guide comes from my actual photography.
One of the things photographers ask me about most is how I photograph groups at wide apertures. You'll see how I photograph groups of four, five, and even eight people at apertures like f/1.2 and f/1.6, using just one strobe! I show you the finished photographs, where my light was positioned, and why I made those choices.
But this guide goes well beyond photographing groups.
I cover working in full sun, open shade, blue hour, and indoor environments where there may be very little available light. We get into light distance, softness, falloff, feathering, flash power, and balancing your flash with the existing light.
I also show you what happens when things DON'T work! When your subject is too bright, your background is too dark, your light looks harsh, or your photograph simply looks too flashy. More importantly, I explain what I would change and why.
Throughout the guide, you'll see actual behind-the-scenes photographs, lighting diagrams, camera settings, flash power settings, and finished images. You're not just seeing the result. You're seeing how I got there.
This is a downloadable 100-page guide featuring 37 lessons
My goal isn't to teach you to copy my lighting setups. I want you to understand what your light is doing so you can walk into your own locations, recognize what you have to work with, and make decisions that give you the results YOU want.
One light. Different environments. Different challenges. And a whole lot of intentional decisions.
Understanding light. Making decisions. Creating with intent.
