Hey, Guys! And greetings from Bulgaria!
I was searching aroung the web for a good forum where I can ask you something.
I really hope if you can give me some clue I'll appreciate it so much!
I bought Nikon Speedlight SB910 and I wanted to shoot some direct harsh light on a white wall portraits.
But when I turn the camera to portrait view the shadow goes really on the right of the model, which I don't like. There are many fashion photographers such as Terry Richardson for example who shoot portrait view and the shadows fall of directly behind the subject creating very thin line of contrast dark.
So I found during a behind the scene video a guy who makes such photos that used some gear for bringing the flash closer to the lens - directly above it so there are no angles for the shadows.
Here it is:
And I am not sure I know what are exactly those wires, one connects the speedlight to the camera and the other I don't know.
So can you give me some advise, what should I buy, what he uses?
I looked through ebay but I couldn't find anything. In Bulgaria there are no such things like that..
Thanks before hand!!
