An easy natural light studio set up - samples

just a few from a quick natural light studio I set up in my lounge room (also used as my studio) today.

Window behind me, black material hung behind my daughter, stool with lambswool over it.

Backdrop is about half a meter away from my subject.

Light was low - shot late arvo, so had to use 800 iso.

Beautiful and simple. Always works for me. Well done.

very nice

beautiful! what backdrop stand do you use? Id like to get a portable backdrop stand for when I go to clients homes but I am not sure which one I should go with, any ideas?

Thank you so much for the behind the scenes info. Makes things feel more in reach (I really don't want to get into lighting - I've had my speedlight for a year and still don't understand it.)

nice shot

i like the poster picture on the wall behind btw
