How do you guys perfer to use your umbrellas for your Wedding shoots. Do you shoot through the umbrellas or do you bounce the light?

I use Mono lights and bounce them.

I use both shoot-thru and reflective umbrellas. Reflective umbrellas are a little more efficient (so you get more light with less power) and afford a bit more control. Shoot-thrus spread the light all over. Just depends on what I need the light to do.

only use umbrellas when it rains
