While at a family function this past weekend, I was asked to take a few quick pictures.  Quick was the key word because the girls were much more interested in playing than smiling nicely for a picture.  Knowing this, I planned ahead on keeping it simple.  I put my 35mm on the X-T1 and set the aperture to f/4 to keep the balance of the light coming through the window, shutter speed to 1/125 and ISO to 400.  For my main light I had a speedlight attached to my camera via a TTL cable and had an Fstoppers Flash Disc on the flash.  I normally like to use flash in manual mode, but I didn’t have the time to dial it in right.  TTL came through.  In the first picture, I wanted more directional light so I held the flash to camera left, which was close to the same axis of light coming in from the window.  Once I had multiple subjects in the frame, I held the flash to camera right to try and balance the light from the window (left) to give a more even lighting situation.  Given this was setup in two minutes and I shot the pictures in another 3, I’m happy with the results.
