Learn how you can save money and take amazing photos with off-camera flash—the new, easy, inexpensive, portable way to take professional photos without expensive studio gear! |
| |
|
 |
Discover the four crucial, inexpensive pieces of equipment you need to get the flash off your camera (and don't worry, if you don't have a flash yet, I'll tell you which kind to buy to avoid over-spending). |
| |
|
 |
Watch me go through 4 photo shoots with live models, revealing all my off-camera flash secrets. |
| |
|
 |
Learn advanced techniques using multiple flashes, colored filters, reflectors, and other optional equipment, for creating photos that make viewers say "Wow!" |
| |
|
 |
Watch over my shoulder as I edit the photos in post-production, adjusting them to look their best. |
| |
|
 |
Learn from my mistakes! I show you the reality of each shoot, including what goes right and what goes wrong and how to fix it. |
|
Note: If you already own a hot-shoe flash—and you are shooting with it on your camera—you are wasting your investment in that flash! For a small fraction of its price you can get it off the camera and transform your photos from amateur-snapshot to professional quality.

"I can't believe how much I learned from this course! I've actually done a lot of flash photography, even shooting weddings professionally, but you just opened my eyes to a whole new world! Your videos were easy to understand, informative, and even entertaining! I'm going to recommend this to every photographer I know!"

Here are Some Screenshots from the Videos
It's not a fancy production (I'm no Hollywood type), it's just a personal conversation between me and you—with plenty of fun toys and some great models. |
| |
 |
First, you get a hands-on tour of every piece of equipment I use—right down to the part number!
I also describe inexpensive, “bargain basement” alternatives for some equipment, to help you get started for the least possible cost. |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
| Then I show you exactly how to set up and position each piece of equipment. |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
| I even show you exactly which buttons to push to configure your Canon 580EX or 430EX flash (if you shoot Nikon or some other brand, don't worry, the basic principles will be the same, even if the buttons are a bit different.) |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
| As we shoot with our models, each time I snap the shutter, I overlay the photo on the screen, along with all the camera info like Shutter Speed, Aperture, ISO, and other settings, so you can see exactly how each shot was created! |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
| We shoot both indoors and outdoors, with four different lighting setups. |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
| For each lighting setup I provide a diagram showing exactly how everything is arranged. |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
 |
| After each photo shoot, we do a post-production analysis in Adobe Lightroom. I point out what went right and wrong during the shoot, and show you exactly how I process photos to make them look their best. |
 |
|
 |
|
| |
| By the time you finish this video course, you'll know exactly what to buy and exactly what to do to start creating professional-looking photos in your own home right away! |

"I got a TON more out of these videos than I thought I would! I was really happy to see that your video had a lot of great photography tips in addition to the flash topics. And you did a great job of explaining why the shutter controls the ambient and
the aperture controls the subject. That was worth it to me right there. Thank you!"
— Robert B., Napa, CA

| Don't Waste Money Like I Did |
| |
I spent a lot of years and a boatload of money learning exactly which equipment was required for off-camera flash—and what wasn't.
Now, I'm going to help you skip the expensive learning curve by showing you exactly what I learned by purchasing and using damn near all of the available options for small-flash photography.
By the time I was finished, I was shooting headshots for actors and making good money shooting portraits—all with equipment you can buy very inexpensively, if you know exactly what to buy, and exactly how to use it.
But watch out, because if you follow the advice of many "experts" out there, you can waste tons of money and get results no better than what you can get on a shoestring budget. Believe me, I did that myself before figuring out what was essential and what wasn't. |

"Anyone who wants to quickly master off-camera flash could not find a better resource than this. Great information, well presented. Even professionals like me can learn a thing or two from this!"

This fun, 4-minute video gives you a complete "behind the scenes" look at a full photo shoot, from hair-and-makeup to the finished photos.

| P.P.S. If you're not convinced yet, consider this: For the cost of a mediocre restaurant dinner, this information could save you hundreds of dollars on equipment, and probably hundreds of hours of trial and error. Not to mention, it will pay for itself many times over the first time you take a professional headshot, where you'll be charging $100 per hour or more. For just $47, how can you go wrong? |
