"spot holder" is like a person is booking me for 4pm - 7pm. I block that time frame out. if someone else hits up to shoot, that time frame i cant shoot in because the 1st person asked for that time. if you dont get a fee/down payment to hold that time, and the 2nd person wants it also but you say "no" and the 1st mufukka flakes and you got no money... you just lost bread. :sadbron: hopefully i explained that correctly.


and you dont NEED all that shyt, you can get a decent studio set up with 2 speed lights, remote triggers, 1 large soft box (if you doing full body shots), a reflector/ big ass piece of foam core, and a white backdrop with some gels for your 2nd light.



watch this


:wow: man i'm watching these youtube videos on using gels for photography like you mentioned and this shyt looks beautiful.

I live in new york so being familiar with Manhattan already i know that the style of imagery with photography gel would definitely be well loved in that area. thanks for telling me about this breh i would never have known about that.

When i do start a year from now, ill still do the regular method of the background paper first just so i learn the organic way first and then ill try this and then switch it up

the gels seem really fun though

my brain is more logically based and i never dreamed i would find an interest/hobby that combined logic with being a creative... :mjcry: but thanks to yall i may have found that. i always wanted to be well rounded with being logical while being a creative

:to: i love yall
