Used Photography Backdrops And Lighting

October 13th, 2009 by admin

Usual supplies needed for a photography studio?

Moved into a new house and my room is huge. I've been planning for a while now to make a small studio in my room, what would I need? Backdrop, lighting lamps, and what else? What variations of backdrops should I use? And what's the basic lamp I would need? I have a small window so there's not much light, and the lightbulb I have is really weak and gives everything an orange tint. Any suggestions?

For backdrops you can use bedspreads or sheets or for small still life shots poster board. If you have a North facing window that is great for natural light. For lighting, if you are on a budget you can get a photo flood bulb from any drug store or hardware store. If you have got some money to work with you can get a 2 light studio kit with stands and bulbs for around $125. Also you will need a tripod, and if you going to do portraits you will need a stool for your subj to sit on, I use a bar stool and seems top work out pretty good. Also a large poster board(white) to use a reflector,, to open up shadows.
