Thanks for showing us "My expensive photography equipment" instead of your title

Today I learned: to take a dramatic photo, I should use one strong light from the side and take a photo. Wow, thanks.

I thought I was going to learn "how to create dramatic one light portraits". Turns out it was just a commercial. The bait and switch makes me not want to buy your products.

es increíble como los fotógrafos al principio queremos comprar todos los accesorios, pero luego nos volvemos minimalistas, un solo flash wow ....que buen trabajo

Sal, with all due respect this was nothing more than a quick sales pitch for the Profoto A1. I believe these kind of snappy videos actually create more questions in the beginning photographers mind then they help to answer. Hey, but I get it...it's your job and everybody has to pay the bills somehow.

nice shot! this is brilliant, I pick godox v1.

[philippmonihart]

I love the sidelight. Looks totally dramatic. Does anyone know, which tilt head Sal is using? Looks really practical with the A1.

[HarleyLunar]

what is that tripod you're using for that A1? looks really great!

[stanleyprendergast]

How would this work if you are using a steady light source with no flash?

[dorozina]

What's the point of using Dome Diffuser in this setup?

[luuk]

But why not in TTL and than adjust flash compensation in camera or is that the same:)

WHere did you find your backdrop for this shoot. Ive been looking for these kinda backdrops for some time now

[rafaelpinheiro]

Though I was gonna learn something here

[neeldesai]

crazy how all of that can be done on an iphone.

[mickcooper]

Piss poor explanation.... More like an advert for the kit he's got... He all but reached for a tissue

I will NEVER by anything by Profoto after being duped by this video. Shameful!!!

[BryanMiraflor]
