A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Small business headshots (alien.top)

I’m doing some corporate headshots for a small law firm near me, but as I usually do videography I don’t have photographic lighting. I have a speed light that goes on top of my camera and im a confident photographer - do you think this is adequate? What would your tips be for corporate headshots?

What do they want for a backdrop? Here's a good resource for your situation. "Self Headshot with one Speedlight featuring Seth Miranda" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcOXIC6xgu4

I don’t think they know having a backdrop is a possibility other than just a wall. It’s for a SMALL small business in rural England. They’d be doing the photos with their phones otherwise, it’s not a big corporate job by any means
