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?

I shoot corporate headshots with 3 strobes if I'm not lighting the background, and 5 if I am. I would never roll into a headshot job with a single speedlight.

This is for a small business in rural England who would otherwise be doing it with their phone - but I will give it a go and if they don’t like the photos o won’t charge them
