I\u2019m absolutely thrilled to welcome you to my new series of videos for Adorama TV<\/a>. The name Take and make great photos<\/em> should give you a clue as to what I\u2019ll be doing in these tutorials. For me the photography doesn\u2019t stop once I\u2019ve taken the photo and I wanted to show that in the videos, so the Take + Make series will feature both photography and Photoshop.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re kicking off with a simple but powerful off camera flash technique. In this case I\u2019m using just a single speedlight to over power the ambient to create the hard, edgy portrait you see in the photo to the right. Then it\u2019s into Photoshop for a bit of RAW processing  to achieve the end result. <\/p>\n

Equipment used in the video:
<\/u><\/strong>Canon 5D Mark II<\/a>
Canon 24-105mm L f\/4 IS<\/a>
BlackRapid RS-7 camera strap<\/a>
Canon 580 EX ii<\/a>
Canon ST-E2<\/a>
Photoshop CS6<\/a><\/p>\n

By using a dedicated flash trigger I could maintain TTL communication between the camera and the flash. That means no flash meters and no cap on the maximum shutter speed I could use. <\/p>\n

Many camera\u2019s have the the technology to remote fire a flash built right in. For example, Nikon users have CLS for off camera flash and on cameras like the Canon 7D and 60D the popup flash has the same ability as the ST-E\u201d remote I used,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
