Lesson two: Equipment
In this video I go over the different options you have for studio equipment including power packs, continuous lighting, and monolights. We also discuss light modifiers, reflectors and gobos.

Lesson four: Setting up your lights
In this lesson, I show you how I set up my lights in my studio, the equipment I use, and how I adjust lighting and settings.
Lesson five: Working with 1 light and a cat
In this video, I show you how to work with one light in studio (which is usually my set up). Our model is also a cat, so we talk about how to work with cats, what tricks to use, and how to best light his black fur.
