Lighting Portraits with Strobe Lighting
Strobe lighting is an awesome way to light someone in a portrait session. The flashes from off-camera devices are able to help you to bend and warp the light in ways that produce fantastic results. Once you understand your camera and camera settings you may be able to place light exactly where you want in relation to your camera and your model.
