In this How I shot it tutorial video I talk you through exactly how I created a simple off camera flash portrait by balancing the natural ambient light with my off camera flash.
A good off camera flash portrait is all about first exposing for the highlights, the brightest part of the scene, then placing the bride/subject in one of the resulting dark areas of the composition, then lighting them with an off camera flash - which is exactly what I do in this video.
To light Liv, my model in this video, I used the MagMod MagBox with a Godox V860 ii speedlight. I used the focus diffuser on the MagBox as well as a 8x ND filter. All shots were taken on my Sony A9 with Sony 85mm 1.8 and Canon 50mm 1.2 lenses. When using the Canon lens I use the Sigma MC11 adapter.
A huge thank you to Liv for modelling, who was fantastic to work with!

@@NeilRedfern You deserve it man, you are our inspiration.
Thanks for sharing. I don't have magbox. Can i use other type of softbox?
My pleasure - and yes of course!
If you are up to it, changing the flash in to TTL and reducing the flash exposure compensation will reduce the flash power below 1/128.
Really?? I didn't know that, great tip! I will have to try that - thank you
@@NeilRedfern the least I can do.
Great video as always Neil. I'm sure you have mentioned this previously but is there a reason you rather not use high-speed sync? And if you did not have the ND for the flash would you have just moved the flashback a bit? ( I know this would also probably increase light slip a bit. ). Your content is always so valuable, thanks.

Thank you very much - and great question! There is no real reason for not using HSS, it's just that I don't tend to do so if I don't need to, but you are right, I could have done. I wouldn't have wanted to move the flash back though because that would do two things which I wouldn't like - it would increase the spread of the light (which could have made the photograph look a bit messy) but it would also have reduced the softness of the light too - the closer the light the softer the light. It would however have solved the brightness problem. I hope this helps? Great questions!! Thank you again
Fantastic video. Neill I don’t have an ND filter. Is there an alternative should I encounter the same issue with 128th being too strong? Many thanks.
Great video. For me most flash tutorials have way to white of a light. Don't know how much of the photos out come was done in post but, I like the more natural skin tones you end up with. PS, your model has beautiful eyes. What light stand are you using please?
Thank you very much! I really appreciate that. I use Manfrotto Mini Stands when shooting indoors
Is the 8x ND filter. still made? I couldn't find it on the magmod website nor on your Amazon link.
Good question, I'm not sure I'm afraid
Where did you that filter from, I didn't see it on MagMods website?
It comes in the MagBox Pro kit, but you can also buy it from the MagBox website within the MagBox Correction Gel Set
@@NeilRedfern oh ok thank you. I have to get that gel set
I haven't used many of the gels as yet but the ND filter was really useful on this shoot!
@@NeilRedfern I definitely like that idea, magmod makes things so much easier
Why not use light meter and start adjusting from there
I don't use light meters - in reality I find that they take much longer than just taking a couple of quick test shots
Bro i wanna meet with you. Is this possible????plz give me positive ans....
