Thank you. It's not much, wish I had real people as patient as those two were to shoot.

Whoa: Save the money you can do lighting in your studio which I guess is your home : By use ing the lamps you have in your home  may need to spend money  on the bulbs  and maybe some filter to adjust the light if your using color film :  when I started to do in home studio work  I just changed light bulbs then a little later went with some cheap smith victor lamps  with stands , then I made my own umbrellas simply bought a couple of cheap ones  and sprayed them silver  for reflectors : But along the way you will learn how to place your lites and how to blend them with day lite Etc.,Etc.. go to the libaray look up studio lighting books and read up with them and follow some of their set ups  and try them yourself :  and from there you proceed at your own pace : good luck and keep plenty of B&W on hand  so you can have fun shooting  and processing:\\

I for one, am looking forward to seeing more of your studio work in the future. As Lauren says, you can get a good setup fairly cheap; then it is is practice, practice and more practice. I've always been fascinated by this type of photography, but never got around to trying it.

An old Hasidic story says we should wear a coat with two pockets in order to receive God's message. In one pocket, the message is: "You are nothing but one of billions of grains of sand in the universe." In the other, the message is: "I made the universe just for you."
