Studio Lightings

First, let's talk about studio lightings.

Even with the highest quality camera, bad lighting can ruin a photo session. It is important to find

lighting that creates a bright, but natural effect. Speed lights, the technical name for a flash, produce a

quick burst of bright, focused light. This is appropriate for portraits and other settings where shadow

and depth are necessary. Continuous lighting, which produces a consistent illumination, is appropriate

for photographing objects like products.

Photography lighting is significantly brighter than any household fixtures. It must be diffused or

reflected to create bright light without washing out the subject. An umbrella or softbox is a valuable tool

that can do just that. Most are white and may include a removable cover in black or silver. Each

produces a different effect.
