Well well well… We transformed our second bedroom into a mini home studio. We’ve got a sweet 3-point lighting system with black and white back drops!
I was very excited to get in there and take some photos so I immediately got to work. Got everything set up and positioned correctly. And… we’re off!

Yeah… Kyleen didn’t wanna be a test subject so I resorted to the first stuffed animal I ever bought her! It was for Valentine’s Day 2009. This lil guy is almost 3 years old! Believe it or not, Who lost one of his eyeballs within the first 24 hours of his ownership. Thanks to an AWESOME black lab mix. Do you feel the sarcasm?
She thought it was cute that I was taking pictures of ^ that lil dude, so I convinced her to let me take pictures of her!

I love that face. Not too mention the lighting on this one is unique. With our Key Light being full force, the back light being at about 40% and the the hair light turned on angled downward it gives the our subject, the lovely Ky, a very strong black n white look. Fellas, this is a married woman. Slow your roll.
I think this was my FAVORITE of the test run.

With the Key light being full force, the back light being at 0%, and our hair light still on Ky we get a beautiful black n white photo.
And, but of course, I was thrown into the mix!

I was SO surprised with the detail of this photo (it was so detailed, when zoomed in at 100% you could totally see black heads! Gross! Wash your face bro). With a controlled lighting system, it makes it much easier on the photographer to capture their subject.
Proof: I should probably remain BEHIND the lens.

Yeah, I’m lame. Yes ladies, I’m married.
We thought we would give you guys just a quick preview of our new in home studio! Keep checking back for more updates!!

Looks like you are ready to get to work and add some studio shots to your portfolio. I am so proud of you for putting some much time and effort into your dream. Photography can be a very good money maker. Good luck and keep me posted.
Love you both,
Gigi
