Flash Photography for Beginners

Flash photography is challenging, especially for beginners.  Professional photographers may shoot in studio or outside but you can bet they have some great equipment that makes the most of the available light and they know all the tricks of the trade regarding flash.

Today I’m sharing a link to two videos that discuss various techniques you can use to make your photos look better when using flash.  I especially like the first video which compares the different looks achieved with a variety of flash choices.  I like that he uses people and different surroundings and lighting situations.  Both videos have great information and I hope you find them useful.  Check out the videos here.  Leave a comment if you think these tips will help you.

Use It All Challenge at The Digichick

The Use It All Challenge at The Digichick is always one of my favorites.  What’s not to like?  You get a free mini kit to create a layout and you get to take part in a challenge.  I’m always up for that.  In addition to the mini kit, I added a couple of elements from the full-size kit that was released this week.  I’ve included links to the challenge and the new kit which is on sale.
