I am going to be photographing a model at a tanning salon today. I unfortunately do not have soft boxes and access to off camera flashes and all that. I do have a flash attachment for my Canon Rebel XT. Also have my stock lens and a 50mm. I wish be in a kind of low light area and also inside a room with tanning bed.

If any info/advice can be given, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thank in advance.
Heather

Welcome to POTN. A challenging assignment with your equipment. How did it go?

Ehh. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either. Got a few good images that I am going to give to them. We'll see how it turns out...

Even though I haven't seen your images, if you have a few $ to get your flash off your camera you'll see a dramatic difference in your photography. The 50mm that you have plus an RF-602 transmitter/ receiver + a small umbrella and stand is all you need. Of course you'll need to learn to set the flash manually, but photography is all about learning....
