Off Camera Flashes
 
So today I shot with the beautiful Albastra in Lafayette in a random parking lot.  The objective of the day was to use my off camera flash (430EX) positioned on a light stand and triggered by a RF Remote.  The results were awesome once I figured out that the photos can be more dynamic and dramatic if I position the model in a shaded spot and lit her up with the flash and some bounce to fill.  Resulting in the photo above.  Now I use strobes all the time in the studio, but this was actually the first time I set up an on location shoot like a studio shoot.  I don’t think I’ll be do much of the typical on camera flash fill anymore.  Hope you like it!
