What kind of strobes?
Give me more info man! I teach model photography so I'm sure I can be of assistance. Tap my knowledge Fine, If you have two, make one so it fires at about f8 the other, at f4 that'll give you a 3:1 ratio. This will give you great photos but keep the bd in focus. Its the setup most used in glamour photography and majority of what is shot now days is a glamour mix. Feel free to pm me your finished work I'd love to see it. |

Don't do it! The WORST thing you can do is go cheap when it comes to model/portrait photography. Those lights are cheap lights and you'll be on the market in about three months looking for something better. Those lights you posted, I got as apart of a cheap lighting kit bout four years ago. You can't change the light intensity so they're shit. If you don't have a lot of space, you'll be stuck as the only way to change light intensity is by moving it front and back. Take 300.00 and get one GOOD light http://www.alienbees.com/b400.html learn how to light with one light, then go from there. |
