Not every photo benefits from strobes.
True... but there are many, many shots that could benefit from strobe. Often, there is not enough light, or the wrong light.. to obtain the photo you (or your client) wants... if you are a "natural light photographer".. you (and your client) are screwed! Agreed?
I agree.
I do have to say, though, that I think it also depends a lot of style....
So a style that utilizes only natural light.. is going to have an extremely limited clientele (willing to wait for decent light), and extremely limited times that they can actually shoot, correct? lol! So they are like part time photographers.. whereas a person who understands flash, as well as "natural light" can utilize both to their advantage... mixing them (or not) as he chooses!
What is that "natural light" photographer going to do in a dark building at 1am to get shots of his model wearing black on a black background? The light is still natural, there is just a lack of it! (yes.. I know that is ridiculous.. but it happens!)
