Table Top Photo Studio

3

My project photos have always been a little so-so and it frustrates me. I usually try to go for natural lighting and compensate with Photoshop. Yesterday I decided to make things easier on myself and construct my own table-top photo studio. It has made a ton of difference!

In general, I followed these instructions with a few small modifications. I used two clamp lights from the home improvement store with Ott-Light light bulbs. I am thinking the light bulbs are not quite white enough (I corrected the photos below), but that’s something that is easily compensated for.

Here’s a photo of the set up, plus a before and after project shot.

I’m still learning about the lighting and the best adjustments to make after the photos are taken, but I am very very pleased with the results.
