New Lighting Equipment
Yesterday I just bought a whole bunch of lighting equipment that in my opinion will give me much more flexibility in the type of photos I can take.
Here is the list:
1. Light Stand (Studio Lighting System) - A 10ft-tall stand to which you can attach a wide-variety of lights.
2. Umbrella (Aurora) - A 42inch, silver umbrellas for bouncing light.
3. Umbrella Mount (Opus) - Attaches the umbrella and flash to the light stand.
That is the main set-up, and here is what it looks like when it's all together:
Now #4 is a bit of a different story, it's a reflector very close to this one. Both are silver, both are about 30 inches across, both reflect light. However mine, I bought from Canadian Tire, not a camera store, it cost me about $15 instead of $85, and also I received 2 reflectors for that price instead of one. Thus instead of spending $170, I spent $15!! If that's not a sweet deal, I don't know what is.
Here is a photo of the two-reflectors:
I'll put up some photos using the new stuff soon, as well as some comparison photos, of with/without reflector and umbrella.

Changes
Sorry for the lack of uploads, I'm just crazy busy at the moment.
I've recently left my job at Black's (Wednesday is my last day), so I'm strictly doing freelance photography right now! Pretty big change, we'll see how it all works out. I currently have work lined up until the beginning of September, and am working on getting a few more jobs. Also I'm buying some new lighting equipment, but I'll post that up later.
On another note I just saw Superbad and it has to be one of the funniest movies ever! Go see it, and let me know when you do cause I definitely want to watch it again!

Lean Back
Working 13 hours almost everyday this week, makes me miss the time where I could just kick back in a lounge chair and read a book. Freelance photography is tough.
