[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 469713, member: 14443"] the hardest part is when things change when u have a set plan. when I do the ktuba (the agreement between bg in jewish ceremonies) they know they need to call the video and stills guys first. it has happened in the past when I was shooting film that they didnt call me and half way through I find out they were doing it without me. usually its done in a different part of the venue and im shooting guests arriving and mingling and im waiting for someone to let me know its starting. we have weddings here with that are on average 300+ people so they are quite big and get hectic. you should invest in sync cords. when the flash doesnt want to fire, connect the flash with a sync cord to the slave and that USUALLY will work. they cost peanuts on ebay. coiled is better than straight so you can wrap the slave around the flash body if you need. buy 4-5 and throw them in the bag. setting up and testing gear is important and im sure you did that. next time you could have tried to put it in slave mode by using the optic slave built in the flash itself. maybe it went into sleep mode and when you can to use them they needed to wake up and the slave doesnt have wake on command the newer slaves have like the yongnuo 603II.

I shoot a lot just so I can get that great photo. your situation isnt so bad like mine but we have venues here that are like night clubs. I can shoot two people standing in front of me for a picture 6 times and get one good image. the lights are all over and the flash tries to cope but a ray of light comes in and it drives the ttl crazy. its thinking too bright, too dark too bright too dark. and the lights shine in their face for a second then another comes in. the lights are moving all over the place.
