First of all, Kay is GORGEOUS! When I hear people say that they are a 'natural light photographer', I feel so sad for them. If you're shooting landscapes, that's okay. But for portraits, fill flash, done properly, will give photos that extra boost. As Roberto Valenzuela calls it, "a little hot sauce." Great illustration, showing how the sky was blown... out. An addendum to fill flash could be high speed sync, often needed on bright days, to allow a faster shutter speed to get the sky not blown... out. Thanks for sharing another helpful video - and the outtakes.

Question: What if I underexpose the face and lift the shadows in post? Won't that lead me to a similar result?

[priyotoshmandal.]

Which metering mode you used in this shoot...???

[peterjonesdelacruz]

I prefer that picture at 0.33 to the pictures with flash.

[ifeanyiorji]

I thought we don't use direct flash even in outdoors.. this getting interesting

[superemesean]

The flash looks nowhere near natural 🤣 the whole point of using flash is to make the light look normal.
