So, naturally I prefer sunlight to artificial lighting.
After doing some research on the web, I decided to go a DIY way instead of shelling out a lot of $$$. I have 3 clamp lights, w/ CF full spectrum light bulbs. I also have a reflector, and white poster board.
I use a portable clothes closet as my rig for backgrounds (which, I only have one of, to be honest).
I'm having trouble getting the best of my lighting, though. Is there a correct way for positioning these lights? I usually try one slightly behind me and above my head for backlighting. Then two off centered in front of me.
I don't feel like I'm getting the best of my lighting, especially when I'm trying to capture my eyes.
May I get some tips/suggestions please?
