Here’s a behind-the-scenes video by photographer David Iliyn showing how he recently did an outdoor photo shoot with a musician with 12 separate off-camera flashes.
The Oregon-based photographer used affordable Godox VT560 universal flash units, which cost about $35 each online, so you can pick up a dozen of them for $420.
Here’s the portrait that resulted from the shoot:
“The Godox flashes performed surprisingly well,” Iliyn says. “Kudos to Godox for creating a really, really cheap affordable flash. If you need something like a backup, this would definitely be the flash.”

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work. I also do Video Editing.
