I've destroyed my two starter shoot through umbrellas. To be fair, they lasted over a year secured safely in my home studio.
I've evolved from "natural light" photographer (really, I didn't know what I was doing and I was intimidated by flashes/strobes, triggers, etc), to an on-camera fill flash photographer, and now, I am in LOVE with using OCF diffused with a shoot through for my outdoor sessions.
The problem is that when I have my OCF set up with the umbrella, any slight breeze will catch the umbrella and send my unit to the ground. This has damaged and broke my flimsy little starter umbrellas.
So now, I'm looking for 1) a more durable umbrella, or 2) another option/suggestion for me to try out.
Thanks!!
