I recently got a Nikon D3000. This is the first DSLR camera I have ever owned and I'm still learning. My question is, if I want to do professional portraits from my home or someone else's, what lighting equipment do I need to start? What is travel friendly and durable? I have looked at lighting kits online but I don't know where to start, some only have umbrellas, etc and then others have strobes, filters, umbrellas, etc. There is also different watts and I don't know what the minimum I need is.. What do I need to get started? And what is budget friendly? I was hoping not to spend more than $200-$300 to start off. I also plan on buying backdrops. Thanks for any help!!
