I think the assumption is that to get into shooting portraits with strobes, it's going to be a very expensive and technical pursuit. But in my experience you can actually achieve some great images with very little gear. In this video I share how you can create dramatic portraits using only one speedlight and a cheap modifier.
Share this video on if you found it helpful.

[@seantuck]

Some of you have pointed out that I mentioned changing exposure with shutter speed, and the fact there is a rough rule that aperture controls your flash exposure, and shutter speed controls your ambient exposure. This is technically correct, but not absolute, and often varies when using the longer flash durations of HSS with different shutter speeds, as well as the fact that aperture obviously increases both your ambient and flash exposure to some extent, so you still need to be careful when following this rule (for those who don't understand the rule I will get into it in future videos, especially an upcoming video on mixing strobe and ambient light). What I should have said to be more accurate in this demo is that I was trying to balance the exposure and using the shutter speed to make sure that no ambient light influenced the exposure in the shot, and then using the flash power to get the correct exposure for the portrait. Those settings ended up being ISO 100, F2.8... then 1/200 meant that I had no ambient light in the shot, and I then turned the flash power up to 1/16 power for a correct exposure from the flash only. I hope that clears things up.

straight rad content. unlike other photography channels. sir, i salute you.

[@matthewwoodhouse238]

Sean Tucker Hi Sean I’m new to strobes and have been practicing the past few weeks. I initially heard on KelbyOne(I think it was!) to set up the camera with ISO100, f8, 1/125 and work with the lighting from there adjusting as you go. As you mention you shot these pics at f2.8, so for me to do the same is it just a matter of the same principle, set the aperture then work the lighting power around this setting?

[@jimdavies]

Indoors there is no need to use HSS? Just put your flash power down. When you have ambient light in the image HSS can be used to control that when shooting with wider apertures that don't let you keep inside synch speed. Indoors shooting like that HSS is just a waste of flash power. You can shoot wide apertures with low flash power - No need for HSS that will kill your batteries

[@FraiseRaboteuse]

or a 3 or 4 stop neutral will control the ambient, then you 'dose' the subject with flash.Depends how bright the day is. ;-)

[@BobGarlick]

I often crank up my Flashpoint 600's (Basically a rebranded Godox at Adorama) to 1/4000 or even 1/8000 to bring the overall watt seconds down so I can shoot at 1.4 or 1.8 when in studio. It's a lot faster than tweaking your trigger settings.

[@wenkangcuisine]

I’ve seen this videos several times in my photography career. It got me inspired lots of times from different types of angle view, portrait, flash gear, lighting style. Today when I see it again, I think it’s a fantastic video for beginner photographes. Everything is well thought in the explanation. The only drawback to put a small softbox in a small space for portrait ,it is the ratio on the left and right face when it’s side lighted or rambrandt lighted, since the light is so closed to the face, the light falls off very quickly, therefore, one side of the face is so much brighter than another side. For sure it can be adjusted in post production , but it’s just a remark I’ve got. Again really great video, thanks for sharing !

[@johnhaller4868]

Sean, you have no idea how overwhelmed I am after watching your series of videos (shadows, highlights and manual mode). I am overwhelming relieved to see that it is possible to take portraits without having expensive gear. Thank you so much, you are a blessed soul sharing so many secrets that photographers normally hoard. It is a hobby for me and I am not doing anything commercial. I am cracking away on the Pentax K50 I have and have started saving to buy a full frame camera. Thank you so much for all the time you invest in spreading this knowledge to people like us. As you put it, I was one amongst the many who think that expensive gear = good photographs. I was able to apply your principles and get a good shot from my mobile phone. I am sure I can get many more once I start applying your teachings to the gear I have. I have started writing down your points like I used to do in school. So simple to follow and learn from your videos. May you live long and strong Sean. Now, your KZbin feed streams on my laptop instead of Netflix; whenever I have time away from work.

[@bthemedia]

CostaMesaPhotography do you understand why he is using HSS? I thought that was a significant gap. Otherwise - yes, he does a great job at presenting! (Just a little long winded sometimes/always in his intros)

[@CostaMesaPhotography]

@@bthemedia My sense was that he covered this fairly well, but based on your comment I went back and looked again. At about the 13 minute mark he mentions HSS and 1) the importance of making sure you have a flash that supports HSS, and 2) explains that HSS allows you to use shutter speeds above sync speed. To your point, he doesn't really explain WHY you might use a shutter speed that fast. Again at about the 14-1/2 minute mark he demonstrates that he wants to cut out all ambient light and only light his subject with the flash....he shows that with the flash off, his exposure produces a black frame...classic HSS, but again to your point, he doesn't explicitly say that to achieve that you might need to raise your shutter speed above the sync speed, but with an HSS-capable flash, you have the freedom to do that without worry. And of course he didn't mention the downside of HSS (and there are few), and that is that it eats up the batteries quite a bit faster. It's a downslide, but it's not a reason you'd avoid HSS...you use HSS because you have to (i.e. when you're trying to achieve a particular result which requires fast shutter speeds...cutting ambient light, freezing motion, etc...). I still put Sean Tucker's video as very high on my list of must-watch, and must-subscribe channels.

[@Bassbarbie]

bwvids yes, it’s so that he can go to any shutter speed without worrying about flash sync times as he explained.

[@Mickey58D]

Thanks Sean! In 2016, I watched a similar video on the use of lights and as if by magic, my images went from flat, lifeless ones, to OMG ones! I don't use anything fancy; a D7000, a Neewer (manual) flash and cheap Chinese flash trigger(s - I always carry a back up!), and home made modifiers, absolutely transforms simple photo's of flowers and landscapes (exposing for the sky, and using the flash to light some plants in the foreground) has my girlfriend saying it looks like a magazine photo! But really! Using a flash for us, now is essential rather than a novelty. When we shoot portraits out of doors, the subject holds the flash set to 1/16th power. The shooter composes the shot; fill the frame, expose for the speedlight (160th sec., f9) - if it needs adjusting, just do it! There's nothing to be afraid of! Product photography is a breeze! We use reflectors to fill in the very dark shadows. But the icing on the cake has to be Headshots! My daughter's old room was transformed into a studio, I bought 2 softboxes, another flash, etc, and a backdrop! Job done! Simplicity is overstating it! We shoot in Manual mode & RAW format, and develop the files into monochrome! You don't need to spend a fortune to transform your images. Your most powerful asset is your imagination! And let failure be your kindest master! Failing in itself is not a problem; failing to learn from failure is! Now there's no turning back! LIGHT IT UP! A Great Vid, Sean!
