I have watched many videos on flash and I go away from it frustrated. You broke this down so simple yet super informative. Your sense of humor is the best!
Glad it helped! Practice is the key!!
Not a flash person - always been intimidated. This was, by far, the best and clearest explanation I have ever heard (or seen)! Thank you!
Yes, well done Omar!
LMAO!! This is the funiest and most easy to understand the concept..
I am a visual learner, and this tutorial made my day!!
I am going to watch it again just for fun..
Well done,
😂😂😂😂😂
I must be honest, it's the most exceptional photography tutorial I've ever come across, seamlessly blending learning and laughter into a single experience 😄👍👌👏
I hereby declare Omar Gonzalez the best tutor EVER! 😌
Omar, you're able to make complicated things simple and does that with a great sense of humor. Thanks. Again!!
This is Gold Omar!!! I used these techniques in my event shoot tonight, and my confidence level went through the roof! I was hyping groups while taking their photos, and I got more "peak moments" than I ever dreamed off 🎉
You're naturally funny lol, and a great teacher.
who wants to see Omar doing stand up comedy ?
I like how you explain the practical side of things, like actually what do you do when you're in the thick of it. Thank you so much! I was the lady fiddling with her flash last night at my first attempt at event photography lol. I usually do landscapes and studio portraits and other things that aren't so on the fly
One of ‘the’ best descriptions on how to properly expose subjects with flash (manual) I’ve ever seen. Thanks!!
I kinda do this differently, because I rely on auto exposure very often. I usually set the flash ttl metering between one and two stops lower than my ambient exposure, so it is both on Auto with the set difference. I then use the excomp-dial for ambient exposure and the flash dial for needed difference between ambient and flash exposure. Less control but more flexibility when switching rooms or when suddenly the lights change. Canon does a great job with auto everything, other brands less so. Thanks for your tutorial!
Excellent video!!!
6:08 I love you for this
As a event photographer i totally agree. Like Omar said, look how's the light around to get the moody environmet and then set the flash to manual. All these new modern TTL flashes haven't given me any improvement which works for me in nightlife / dark environments. I use an old Nikon flash (SB-800) which does the job a nd has not so many settings to mess around. As seen in the video the flash bounced back from the ceiling and fives a soft light. that's good in locations with not so high ceilings, but this doesn't work in big dark clubs. you can use a little refector, or plastic softbox / cap on the flash to get a more soft light.
You saved me from agony. Thank you for this tutorial. I’m a food photographer but a client asked me to shoot an event and now I can go in with confidence knowing actually what I’m doing. A pleasure to watch this video!
NO! Your NOT nervous, because in your room you practice with a dummy! 🤪 Funniest and most helpful video I have watched in a long time.
Oh my god, this video is incredible Omar. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with so much humour. I laugh at all your videos !
Oh wow, this is actually a super useful way to conceptualize flash settings. Very well done!
This is the simplest explanation of how to use a flash. Thank you! Now it’s starting to make sense. Until now I’ve avoided taking pictures of people indoors. Maybe now I’ll give it a try.
Love the videos, one of the best videos explaining flash along with your other videos as well. Thank you.
The best part of this is that he is being literal about the dancing over to the subject. 😂 The topics get my attention, I stay for the enthusiasm.
Best video I've seen about flash. Thanks for the tips. Really clicked with this one.
relatable and good from theory to practice of engaging the subject. 🎉
OHHH MUH LORD this was tremendously helpful. THANK YOU OMAR

Good stuff! Great teacher! Thanks for sharing!
LOVE YOUR WORK!!! This is a fabulous tip. Thank you so much Omar, game changer!
"Best In Class" explanation of "Stops" and "Clicks"! I will never achieve your level of proficiency with a flash, but it's nice to see that it can be done. Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.

Oh em gee. I just LOVE your videos, Omar!!!! You teach so well…the beginner (me!!) can totally understand what you are saying and doing without a lot of technical speak that confuses and loses someone new to the game.

Wow Omar! Even I feel more confident using my flash after this video.
Que grande Omar!! What a great way to explain people how to achieve their goals in photography 👊
Love your videos like this! So practical and simple. 👏
With bounce flash technically you need to consider the distance from the flash to the walls and ceiling to the subject. That's why the room got brighter when the distance doubled but actually the bounce distance didn't change all that much.
You're very silly. I like that. I also like this vid, I love taking dance floor shots so the part at the end about not fiddling with setting while you're talking to people really resonated. Cheers!
Thanks . these r great tips. Post more on flash photography
God, you're so funny. I always enjoy watching your vids!
Omar that was soooo helpful and goood
Hey Omar, this video is fantastic!!
I’ve always been afraid to use flash at any family event, but I used your instructions from here and did an event, and boy!!! I’m so happy with the results. Combined with a larger flash bender, I managed to get more decent images than not.
Many thanks.
Oh man, I love this! It makes me laugh at the same time as learning valuable stuff! Thank's Omar! Loved it!
So good tip
Brilliant Omar. I love how much practice you put into your craft, and how well you know your tools. Such an asset to aspiring photographers!

I try this last weekend pointing directly using double diffuser and it works very great! Like when I use umbrella beauty dish in studio. Colors was so awesome in edit
