Nice studio setup, Chris! Looks like things are going great in Redding! Hey - I notice the studio's surround by plate mirrors like a dance studio or gym. I like the idea and convenience of it, but wonder if you've had control issues with bounce/reflection light? Can't tell from the image how much separation there is between the walls and set so there might not be much impact. What's your experience with it so far?

Thank you Jason!
The mirrors are all left behind by the previous tenant-an exercise gym. At first I just knew I would have to spend boo-koo $$$ on curtains to cover them (they're glued on, and can't be removed without destroying them), but although i've only been in there a short time, I've found them to be ok as is. I may change my mind later, but currently, the mirror issue is bumped pretty low on the ol' priority list. There is some outside ambient that is constantly trying to sneak in, and to combat that, I use a portable black cloth back-drop and stand.
Hope all is well in Reno.
Chris

Thanks, however I was asking about the model at your site who is featured on your on location video? Everyone should check out your site but particularly that video presentation. Just great! Thanks.

Oh Gotcha. That's Korin Smith. Isn't she great? Here's the video (external link) and thank you very much. I'm glad you liked it. This is exactly the kind of thing that floats our boat.
