>>4213315To me, I want to learn the philosophy and the rules first, don't plan on running a studio, maybe I'll get a friend or two to help with a few things for sure, both in front of and behind the camera, but I'm just doing it because it's fun. Again, photography is not my livelihood, it's my hobby.
>>4213316Alright, will keep that noted. I think I'll just stick to friends for now since I know them well and it'll be a little easier reflecting their expressions onto a photo. Natural lighting is something else I think I somewhat understand how to use effectively, but will definitely be practicing it more. Artificial lighting is where I'll be struggling the most as I don't know a damn thing about it nor do I even know where to begin with that
