Lights, Camera, Action: How to Light Your Photos and Displays

2 Comments

Whether you're having trouble lighting your photos or lighting your displays at art fairs and craft shows, I can shed some light on solutions.

The goal for photography and video is to get as close to Mother Nature as possible because full spectrum light (daylight) gives us the best images.

The older we get, the more important having enough light to see becomes.
