Hey I’m Pinky, thanks for stopping by! My friends call me Pink, some won’t address me because they’re not sure if it’s actually my name, Starbucks cant get my name right on my cup (kiki, kinky, binki, hiki, rebecca). It’s ok, as long as you don’t call me thumb, I’m good. Browse through, give me a call or message me with any questions you may have. Talk soon!

FAQ: Light Gear I use
posted in:
Photography

I've had this question a few times now, what lighting equipment do I use?  Some ask about my  big set up, do I use couple alien bees, softbox, etc... but honestly I actually just use one light when I'm out doing my sunset shot.  Most times one, sometimes 2 speedlites.  In the beginning, when I didn't know lights, I got the alien bees set up, but I don't ever use it.  It's not very mobile, big to carry around and I'd need a battery pack.... HEAVY!  I tried it once, I was exhausted...really.  I was also worried about the wind knocking it over.

-Canon Speedlite 580exii

-Light filter, I use the photoflex blow up softbox

-Scott Robert Lim's trigger system, one on hotshoe of your camera, one on flash

-One light stand

I usually have my lightstand 3-5 feet away from the subject.  I don't use an umbrella or huge softbox because it's windy here, which can cause some damage to your lighting gear.  It could work if you bring sand bags, though I can just see the umbrella blowing inside out.

Its my easiest setup.  Ofcourse I can add more if I wanted to, but on location I like to bring just 1.  If you don't have a lightstand, bring an assistant.  Or you can shoot & hold it yourself....up and to the side....it might work ;)
