I have recently started my own studio out of my home and have done 20 or more sessions. While the pictures are good, I know they could be better. I need help or suggestions with lighting. Right now I have two continuous lights with umbrella attachments on them that I bought when I first started the studio, but now I hardly use them. I tend to shoot more from natural light now (well, there are florescents in the room). The lights I think give off too many hot spots no matter how I angle them or adjust them (believe me - I have tried a million and one setups with them). I would either like some suggestions - or any of you know of any good books on lighting - I would love that too. I mostly shoot babies, kids, and families. Would softboxes be better to give a softer all around light. I dont want anything too complex of a setup as the studio room right now is only about 14X15 so I dont have a lot of extra room.
Please honest opinions and suggestions as I need to get this fixed. Thanks!
