I almost never use flash or artificial lighting and noticed that this guy wasn't using them either during his shoot.

10 Steps To Becoming A Better Photographer
by Virtual Photography
Understand Lighting
Where will you primarily be photographing? If its in the studio, creating the perfect lighting is easy. Use lights, umbrellas, soft boxes, gobos, reflectors and mist machines – anything you can to get the perfect quality of light for your subject matter. When you head outside, study lighting from a natural perspective. Yes, you can use fill flash to make your images pop. But also learn to watch how and where light falls to create truly dramatic images without the necessity of external flash. And when you go on location, use a hybrid of the two to create the best light for your situation.
