  i am going to shoot some of my work and i am a total noob when it comes to lighting. i'd like to achieve this effect on the shots
  

  

  i have white seamless, lots of clamps, 2 worklights with reflectors, an abundance of tissue paper and whiteboards, a tripod and a g9 that can shoot in raw.

  where would be the best place to shoot? next to a window? any advice on how to position my lighting or where to ad fills? anyone else done something with such a ghetto set up? can i macgyver this thing or should i ask a pro?

  • getting the right angle is hard, 2 light stands + a tube + clamp camera + tethered may workvaxorcist
