Last night it was very cloudy and raining a little. Perfect time to get out the camera and work with my speedlites outside. Speedlites are the flashes that go on top of a pro camera. This picture was done with two Speedlites off camera. The main light was to the camera's right and a kicker light from camera left behind Dylan. I usually do this kind of lighting during wedding receptions but recently I decided to use them when I do portraits. I really like the way images look using off camera light and the Speedlites are small and very portable. I usually use my studio flashes but that requires an outlet, bigger stand and me lugging it around. I'm planning to use this method for senior pictures this year. Now don't get me wrong, I do prefer natural light and will continue to do those type of pictures. Using the lights give my clients a different look.
