You want a polarizing filter that fits the lens she uses. You twist it and adapt it to glare so it disappears.

For small items, you can get them a small lightbox on ebay for under $25. For the larger items, a couple of ideas.

You need better lighting setups. Two things you could do. Buy some speedlights. There's generic ones for around $40 that work just fine. Need to make sure they have the slave/master relationship. Get some help buying the right gear.

The other thing you could do, buy one speedlight, and get a bounce source with a way to keep it upright.

You're paying for me, you're getting me.

I don't know, and I'm also gonna assume it's not exactly the easiest thing to collect a debt from half way around the world either. There's also the real possibility you could lose.

Enforcing that right is often expensive, far more costly than money you would receive, and the risks for people on the infringement side very often have near-zero risk, and low cost in the rare case they are caught.

I came here to bring this up specifically. Tony Northrup had a video about someone across the globe stealing his content and brought up how extremely costly it was. He was mad, could afford it, and was gonna fight cause they did it to him twice, from what I recall, but I do remember a point in the video where he was talking about how it became a matter of principle over money at a certain point because of the cost in money and time sink. I can't remember if he said $50,000 or $500,000, I lean towards the 50, but either way, that's a lot of money to fight for one picture.

So i’m a relatively amateur photographer and right now I’m starting to build my portfolio by an instagram account.

What that said, there is no chance in hell you're ready to shoot an NBA game.

You want to get there, start by getting good and not considering yourself to be an amatuer.

I'd tell you to shoot small basketball stuff, but from what little I know of sports photographers, that's not a way into that world. Being really good, becoming an assistant to an NBA shooter, and then when they bow out, you being in the position to get that spot, is how you get it, last I knew.
