Remember folks. Underexposing is WAY better than overexposing. You lose a lot more information on an overexposed image, and it'll be hard or impossible to bring that information back in post.

For a quick revision. <br> <br>Mistakes: <br>1. Confusing overexposure with harsh light. <br> <br>2. Thinking many lights = better photos <br> <br>3. Thinking you need expensive lights for great results <br> <br>4. Thinking that the lights need to be on full power.

Man I need to learn how to use flashes. Natural light photography is dope but as a pro imo you have to offer more. Great video

I have a paid shoot next week and today finally bit the bullet on a Godox AD200Pro and soft box with a wireless trigger. Definitely going to set it up and test it before the day of, but these tips definitely made me feel more confident in reducing my chance of messing up. Thanks!

I definitely was a victim of number 1. I would get so frustrated with the harsh light thinking how does a softbox break 🤣

Great video. In my opinion, one of your greatest assets is your honesty. Seldom do you see pros opening up like this. Good job mate!

Great video and points. I also just love to shoot with one light or 2 most of the time
