I got a set of lights just in time to be volunteered to shoot the staff. It was my first time using lighting. C&C welcomed and appreciated.

You did a good job. I'm sure they'll be satisfied with your shooting abilities.

I hope this makes up for all the times you clogged the company toilets. ;)


Thank you. bw!

Nice shots Jaime. Looks a little flat though. How many lights do you have?

Thank. I have 2 lights. The flatness could be a result of the moniter I am using

The ratio looks pretty even. How did you meter each light?

manually, in my head, trial and error. I chose f/8 for what ever reason and ISO 100 since I was using the lights. 1/200 seemed to expose properly while 1/250 seemed to over expose.

looks good Jamie. In future, I might put a small light (as separation from the background) behind the subjects.

lol...this sounds like my method!
Were both lights set to the same power/distance etc? This could be why they seem flat.

This too. Once you get a 3rd light, it will help to seperate the subject.

Distance yes or at least close.
the light camera left was set in the middle and the one on the right was set to full.
