Photography Lighting Kits Canada
What is a good affordable 3 point light kit to purchase for studio photography in Canada?
I’ve gone through media training so I know all about journalism photography but want to start my own studio. I know the basics of 3 point lighting but not what brands are the best. Can you guys help me out?
What is the best bang for my buck essentially in Canada and where can I find it? Thanks!
Check out Ebay. There are tons of strobe kits on sale there, with and without background stands and backdrops. Prices are affordable, not a lot of big name recognition, but compared to Alien Bees or something like that, you can get a whole kit for the price of a simple strobe. Its kind of a disposable type kit. Look for replaceable bulbs and flashes, its usually in the listing if it does have them. Really starting out, you can find something that won’t break you but will give you the capacity to do some decent portraits. Its not about the name on the lights anyway. Good Luck.

The Cultural Work of Photography in Canada (Hardcover) $98.85 The Cultural Work of Photography in Canada is an in-depth study on the use of photographic imagery in Canada from the late nineteenth century to the present. This volume of fourteen essays provides a thought-provoking discussion of the role photography has played in representing Canadian identities. In essays that draw on a diversity of photographic forms, from the snapshot and advertising image to works of photographic art, contributors present a variety of critical approaches to photography studies, examining themes ranging from photography`s part in the formation of the geographic imaginary to Aboriginal self-identity and notions of citizenship. The volume explores the work of photographs as tools of self and collective expression while rejecting any claim to a definitive, singular telling of photography`s history. Reflecting the rich interdisciplinarity of contemporary photography studies, The Cultural Work of Photography in Canada is essential reading for anyone interested in Canadian visual culture. Contributors include Sarah Bassnett (University of Western Ontario), Lynne Bell (University of Saskatchewan), Jill Delaney (Library and Archives Canada), Robert Evans (Carleton University), Sherry Farrell Racette (University of Manitoba), Blake Fitzpatrick (Ryerson University), Vincent Lavoie (Université du Québec à Montréal), John O’Brian (University of British Columbia), James Opp (Carleton University), Joan M. Schwartz (Queen’s University), Sarah Stacy (Library and Archives Canada), Jeffrey Thomas (Ottawa), and Carol Williams (Trent University/University of Lethbridge). |
