The POWER of HIGH SPEED SYNC- An essential tool for every portrait photographer!

My name is Manuel Ortiz and I am a portrait photographer from Chicago,IL. Today, I wanted to make a small demo video for beginner strobist on HSS and why it is so essential for on location portrait work. For the more advanced photogs, the way I balanced the ambient with flash in this video was purposeful. I didn't want a dark background but more of a naturally balanced look. I hope you guys enjoy the video and subscribe because more content is on the way!
