Dear Pro photographers,
I read many postings about the first Photo Studio Kit for the Beginners, and many of you don't advise cheap lights from Amazon etc. However, not everyone can afford pro lights right away. Yes, we should save for the better equipment, but in theory if we have the budget below 500$, what can be done to set up a nice home studio? I have a few questions and really hope you can help. This forum is just amazing, and your help so much appreciated.
1) For the portrait photography (at home), why many people suggest strobe lights? Can one start the studio without strobe lights?
2) Can one simply purchase 2 continues light umbrellas, 1 softbox and a reflector?
Recently, someone did a photoshoot for me at a home studio with the set up I just described... The photos came out good.
3) Are these options okay? Which one will be acceptable? (or even a combination of umbrella and softboxes):

THANK YOU very much.
