15. Portrait Shoots with One Flash
Photographs taken with an on-camera Speedlight look better than those taken using the pop-up flash, but the direction of the light can still turn your portraits into mere passport pictures if you’re not careful. This chapter shows you how to get the best shot possible with a single flash still attached to your camera. For example, using small light modifiers, such as the Rogue FlashBenders or Rogue Grid, can help you change the quality of the light produced by the flash. Likewise, a reflector or plain sheet of white poster board can bounce light where you need it most, creating a softer light.
