Kristina Vatne Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 I just purchased a 24" tabletop photo studio kit to help me with my Etsy site, only to find that the included lights are too dim for even a sunny afternoon in a Tillamook, Oregon pottery studio. I plan to order better lights, and this time I want to be SURE they'll be bright enough for me to showcase my work. I've been pottering for over a decade, but this is the first time I've been serious about photographing/ selling my work, so any and all feedback would be very much appreciated. Here's the studio I purchased: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RDQ99HY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 And here are some of the lighting kits I'm considering (please speak up if you have suggestions other than these!!): https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07VDNHYX7/?coliid=I2JBRET66N5NOD&colid=IMX9TIP77PUR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00L5TGT82/?coliid=I2RTJ8XYAODGQW&colid=IMX9TIP77PUR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07ZYFBBFF/?coliid=I3U2ESH30XLYGM&colid=IMX9TIP77PUR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07HHVDW1V/?coliid=I37429CKMLP92K&colid=IMX9TIP77PUR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07BF81K3B/?coliid=I336LP85YXQ1N4&colid=IMX9TIP77PUR&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it Thank you in advance for sharing your wisdom! -Kristina Vatne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liambesaw Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 I use these lights on the side and spot lighting https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FNMHPBJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_gd3bFbKN49WRS No white box, just a white muslin drop cloth backdrop hung on the wall. Can use flash if you need to that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilestrick Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 Get something that allows you to use regular screw-in bulbs, like the second one on your list, and also get two clamp-on reflector lights that you can clamp onto those tripods. 4 bulbs will light better than two, so you can light high and low. Then get 15-20 watt LED bulbs, which are equivalent to 100 watt incandescent bulbs. You can adjust how intense they are by how closely you set them to the cube.
