[MLlanes]

well, i want to get into some stock photography. i have a "lighting setup."

its two 250w lamps on a tripod (image below)

the diffuser is a air conditioner filter.( lol, ghetto.)

this is the result. i still have to work on the shadows and getting rid of the background shadow.



im gonn move the lights closer and up higher on my next try.

What they do with more pro kits is they light from below, behind, and the sides to get rid of the shadows. There are some boxes or diffuser cubes you can buy to do this type of product photography. It looks good though, aside from the shadow.

im gonna try it again in a bit with a light on top too, to try to get rid of that shadow. ill post the outcome later tonight
