Ask Dr. LiveJournal: photo lighting

[beowabbit]

Hi. If I want to take indoor pictures with my digital camera (photo-shoot style rather than candid-snapshot style, but not professional-grade), and I don't want to be dependent on the flash or on sunlight through windows, what do I need in the way of lighting, and how much should I expect to pay for it?

(By the way, I'm not looking for something that would talk to my camera like a flash; I'm looking for something I would turn on and leave on while I was shooting.)


Oh, then you should look into hotlights...those you just leave on. Check out some rental places and the will be able to show you some options.
