Really glad you’re here to watch the thread, and thank you very much for the compliment and kind gesture.
Yes you’re correct, I never use flash. Something about the flash doesn’t look as good in my opinion. I use a Paul c buff Einstein 640 strobe set up usually on high, but don’t use the onboard flash on my camera so it doesn’t trigger the secondary main flash. It’s set up on a tall tripod stand so it comes from above usually. There’s an above dining room light with 3 bulbs. Then I’ll use about 3-4 and sometimes 5 lights on each side, sometimes a light angled from below. Out of those 7, they are all types of bulbs. All range from very cool to warm, one is led that is really white, theres clear bulbs that are probably the warmest. Then I use a back light that has a very small cool t5 in it, and it’s filtered with a psychedelic looking colorful mushroom and gnome picture. Works good with the water droplet magnification background technique I use. A lot of the light I change around constantly so photos are always experiments.
