I am a fan of your photography and writing and I am very interested to know how your shooting process in the crowded dark places with the off camera flash goes. May be there is an article about it I have not seen yet.
I do shoot dance and music events that have similar circumstances like yours, and I like the OCF, but for this one either needs to have an assistant and have a very good connection between each other, and experience of doing that together. It also more expensive client. When I try doing it by myself, with the flash in my hand, it slows things down, and I miss shots. Also, there is lot of missed shots as the handhold flash is not always lights what I hope.
I think it is a very interesting topic. You did touch it a little in the article about the high society parties. Thank you for the valuable insights 🙂
However, in my humble opinion, this topic of shooting in dark crowded environment with off camera flash deserves a separate article :)
