Thanks for the kind words Robert, the backdrop is not to bad for some black material hanging over a clothes airer.

My motto is: What they don't know won't hurt 'em :blah:

Very cool, how did you light her??

I'm not sure this is really you shooting though... not enough motion blur!!! LOL

Thanks Mark, Used two flashes with umbrellas (silver reflective main and white shoot through fill) black material backdrop set up in the lounge room.

Got myself a cheap Chinese studio light kit (comes with 3x 150w flashes, stands, 3 umbrellas, trigger and bag). Great for learning without spending a lot of money initially. Setup a bit of a home studio in the garage.

Not used to shooting people, got a lot to learn. Any tips for me Mark:-). What do you recomend to use as a hair light?

I'm still a beginner under the lights in a studio, trust me I make it up as I go along and not had the tools to be working with a hair light as yet. With all you have along with willing models you will soon know a lot more than me so I will be after advice.
