Photospam! Since some of you guys went for the wireless flash workshop in KL recently, I thought I would like to share some wireless flash photos with you guys. tongue.gif

We shot this as part of a photoshooting session with our model Kay. There is this nice classic car parked at the porch of the location which suits Kay's retro looking Kebaya outfit. We used 2 HVL-F58AM to light up Kay from the left & right (slightly behind her). Another 2 units of HVL-F58AM was used to light up the car, also from the left & from the right. All 4 units of HVL-F58AM is on TTL and triggered wirelessly. The transmitter / controller is a HVL-F20AM attached to me camera's body.

Below is my 2 cents. Just saying it like it is so dun angry wokeh? smile.gif

Are you using direct flash? Can see harsh shadows in most pics behind the subject. You should really be using bounce flash. This is where I found the need to get the F58AM. brows.gif Not having enough flash power resulting in a not so good shot is really frustrating.

I noticed that in some pics, the background is dark while the subject is lighted (by the flash, I presume). This makes for an uneven pic in terms of lighting. You should try to up the ISO setting to let your cam capture more ambient light to balance the lighting.

Watch how you crop your shots. In the first pic, you've cut off the end of the pillow (it is a pillow right?). Would be nice to show the whole pillow. In the second pic - it would be better if you have shot landscape orientation so that you won't have to crop the person fixing the bride's hair out in such an unflattering manner.

Pic #7 could use some space around the couple. As it is, it is too tight for my liking.

Having said that, shooting a wedding is really difficult. You have to be on your toes at all times. You have to know the whole event's flow and how it unfolds so that you can position yourself for the best shots.

You also have to be an organizer at times and order the couple or their helpers to round up their family members and/or friends for group shots. Yes, sometimes the couple DO FORGET to take a group shot with their OWN PARENTS after getting group shots of all their friends. If you do not keep track of this, it would be bad when you deliver your pics and there is NO shot of the happy couple with their parents! Or there are pics of the couple with either one parent but none where both parents are present in the shot!

Wedding photography is not just about clicking the shutter. It's much more than that and we will be taken to task when certain 'unmissable' shots are not there - like when the couple forgets to take pics with their parents! It's a learning experience each and every time.

Newbieeeee : What diffuser you using? The white ones that cap onto the flash head? Should really throw it away lar... It makes your shots look like direct flash shots!!

Better to leave the flash as it is and strap a small namecard sized white card to it to throw light in front. Stupid diffuser eats up your flash power and don't work correctly.
