  4. Laura Bednarski says

    HELP. Dom this does not work for me at all. I use the same setting you do and am perplexed.

  5. tony Rigg says

    where do you get that small beauty dish from ?

  6. Matt Howells says

    Great concise video. Thank you.

  7. Taimur Ali says

    Hey great shots. My question is when I take pictures with my speed lite in the smellier manner they are very harsh in lights how to create more softness?

  8. SuperLitherland says

    She is so hot! do more with her

  9. Balu says

    Oh yes yes, let's see you doing her in her bedroom. Booyah!

  10. Ignacio Conde says

    Is there any way to know what beauty dish is that?

  11. roger gavin says

    i tried the same settup and my model ended up so blown out io was unreal..i had to turn my power setting down to 1/64 power ..can you explain why it didnt work when i set the settings u used…the only thing i changed  was the iso to 100..u mentioned you used an omni bounce in the beuty dish ..is this true? i coundnt put n omni bounce through attached to the flasht through the beauty dish if i wanted too..please help..only thing that really made a diiferance was if i feathered thre light..not pointing the beauty dish straight at her

  12. Aki says

    Having the same type beautydish, I was wondering if you have found one that works better? Cause I find it to be better then bare flah, but fare worse then a studio beautydish. Tried one at a pro studio once and it was pure magic compared to this one.

  15. Charles Kraskin says

    I just had an "I love the internet!" moment. This is just what I needed to see. Thanks so much!

  16. Dombowerphoto says

    The tamron 28-75mm lens will work find on that camera. its a great lens for a low price, highly advised.

  17. Dombowerphoto says

    had it set to commander mode so it does not affect the image at all. read up on nikon CLS for more details regarding that

  18. Albina Rasmussen says

    I have nikon d 5100, is that lens gonna work with it? or because its not full frame camera its gonna be like 100mm on my camera? thanks

  19. Lloyd Ledrew says

    I know you can't show someone photos without their OK, but if you have not see this one, check it out. She is a non pro in the US with a population of 400 in her town. Regina Pagles will get you to regina pagles photography

  20. leon scaife says

    you didnt mention what power you have your on camera flash at! I assume its set really low

  21. Dombowerphoto says

    just from some guy in a carpark in edinburgh.
    check my blog, (samyang 85mm review) even took a photo of him and put him on the blog.

  22. ANTON says

    were doing it in the bedroom 🙂

  23. nickynunn says

    another good video,is f8 a shallow depth of field though? how do you trigger your flash? i cant afford pocket wizards,what one are you using,is it expensive?thanks for the vid by the way

  24. Tony H Robinson Jr says

    Love what you do bro! Simple and right to the point! Thanks!

  25. Dombowerphoto says

    yes, either is good, the umbrella will send more light all over the place so may be more difficult to control that you dont get any spill light on the background.

  26. Huajun Daniel Sun says

    I see you are doing two light setup. If I only have one light, would you suggest me using a beauty dish or an umbrella?

  27. paul boo says
