The lighting was set up by the studio techie. I just tried to ensure that the exposure was correct for the image shot and that I captured what I was seeing.
Not having a studio space or studio lighting myself I tend to rent out with lights included. In those cases things are preset (backdrop, light layout with proper ratios, props, other equipment, etc.) I just come in with my camera and lenses, set up the model and go at it. I really would like to learn more so that I can come into a completely bare space, set up everything and know that what I've done is correct. I guess that only comes with practice but practicing in a rented situation is expensive. Luckily I'm getting better with consistency with what my part in the shoot is all about.

You don't ever need to fear posting images here. Nobody is really " Out to get," other people.

It's not so much I fear postings (I know I have room for improvement but I *am* getting better and better with each shoot) but rather I guess I am what would be considered a Part Parttime photographer. That is to say that I'm lucky to get one shoot a month. Mostly this has to do with time available to me (I do have a fulltime job during the week and a life after work) but often it's a matter of first finding willing models (ie. willing to do TFCD) and co-ordinating my schedule with theirs. As long as I shoot outdoors or locational the costs keep reasonable. Moving inside a studio does rachet up the costs and severly limits my shooting numbers.
So I am, as I said, still trying to put together some good images to post here. It's not a matter of quality as quantity. I do have some from earlier times but the quality is suspect.
Thanks for the encouragement though.
