Lighting and Props

Soft Box

Soft boxes are used to soften lights, you put it onto the light and face it on the background or the subject you are photographing to give a softer light. It also diffuses the light so it covers a wider space. If you use a few soft boxes, the photograph will turn out evenly lit, soft boxes can also appear to give a photo a more 'clean' look. 

Beauty Dish

You can get beauty dishes in many different sizes and lights up the subject directly, because of it being round in shape it creates a more even light all around rather than creating shadows. This light is very bright and is good for covering up imperfections if there is any. 

Small Reflector & Honeycomb Grid      

The small reflector is like a spotlight and focuses just on the subject, it is good for low key lighting as it creates a lot of shadow and only creates light where you want it to. The honeycomb grid allows the light to create a focus on the subject of the photo.
