Latvian Rock band “Dziļā Nemaņā” photo session.
The farewell photo session with Roman Lukjanenko few days before he went to the States.
Yesterday I wanted to try some new techniques, and we had a 15-20 minutes express shoot with my friends. I used a bare flash on the left and a big silver reflector on the right.
For some time I tried to think how can I combine a studio softbox and a small studio flash. Today I found a good tip how to use a studio softbox with a small camera flash Yanik’s Photo School demonstrates how you can make your own flash rig using standard studio equipment, it’s really easy. Only one more thing I want to figure out is how can I use my studio reflectors with my small flash. If you have any suggestions drop a comment.
I decided to share another set of photos, my “Playing with light” small strobes lighting practice.

Today I want to share some basic portrait setups. These setups don’t require expensive equipment or fancy techniques. All you need is a softbox or umbrella, fill cards, and some strobes.
