Home Photography Studio by Wranglerbarn

There are many things which separate a professional photographer from an amateur photographer. When it comes to photographing people, perhaps nothing stands more in the way of the transition to advanced photography than a studio. When it comes to studios, it can be easy to get lost in the myriad of features and equipment that can be included. However, at its most basic level, a studio is about just one thing: light. A studio allows the photographer to control the lighting of the subject which allows the photographer to get the best possible shot. Everything else, from props, to backdrops, is extra, something that a photographer might like to have, but not something that will stand in the way of a great photograph. Controlling light comes down to just two things: blocking out unwanted light and adding in desired lighting. The first step in creating your home based studio is to evaluate potential sources of light. Assuming a standard room, this will be the windows, and potentially the door. However, this may also include a skylight, or other light feature.

Depending upon the source and quality of the light, there may be occasions when using the light is warranted. This is particularly true in the case of a window that receives indirect sunlight. Many photography resources mention a north facing window for this purpose, but here in the northern hemisphere, most windows spend at least part of the day receiving indirect sunlight (western windows in the morning for example). However, we want using that light to be a choice, not a requirement, so it is necessary to have a way to block out the light coming from the windows and doors.

If possible, consider installing light blocking shades to eliminate undesirable light sources. Closing the door should be sufficient for most doorways. Keep in mind that there is no need to make the room pitch black. As long as no significantly bright light is cascading in, the man made lights installed in the studio should overwhelm any diffuse light entering the room. Once we have eliminated all the unwanted light, it is time to setup our studio to provide all the light we do want for our home-based photography studio. When it comes to choosing what type of lights to use in a photography studio, there are hundreds of opinions. For the home based studio, any of the various types of lights will work as long as you make the proper adjustments to your photograph techniques and settings. However, keep in mind that a small room will get hot very quickly with hot lights. Also, high powered strobe lights have a tendency to trip circuit breakers which get confused by the sudden surge of power. If youll be using such lights, it will be necessary to provide some sort of power conditioning to avoid this problem.

The more lights available, the more options a photographer has. But, within the limitations of a home studio it is important to realize that great shots can be taken with just a few lights.
