  • Heh. I don't use a studio. The majority of my stuff is window light if taken indoors, though I own a couple of cheap lights. I might use foam core as a reflector and a translucent white shower curtain as a diffuser or reflector if I'm not doing candids.

    My mind works a lot better as an observer rather than a planner, so I tend to work by observing the light and using or modifying what's there rather than setting something up. I have a hard time coming up with something from scratch that looks natural enough to be pleasing to my eye.


  • Thanks...guess this won't be the ultimate anything...lol.


  • Three halogen 1500W floods with theatre blue gel mask mounted on heavy duty G-clamps. DJ lighting T-bar. Big old sheet stained grey with Woolworths dye, tripod, imagination.

  • The idea is to light the subject the way that you perceive it. Some shots may require harsh light. Some are better super soft.

    Personally I start with a bounce or soffbox as a main. Position that until the shadows are agreeable. Then I bounce a light off the ceiling to open said shadows. Also like to have a lot of reflectors.
