Aly in studio

Tried my hand at wired, old school studio flash with a film camera -- suffice to say, lots of difference between the digital/wireless incarnation! Fun, but wow do I have a learning curve ahead. It's good to be humbled and drop yourself into a situation where you don't know what you're doing!

@TheFlyingCamera Excellent point, and yes -- one of the first things I bought when I set out to try learn this was a flash meter. Makes a huge difference! And happily I can use it for metering ambient, too.
I'm just starting, I know I need to refine this a LOT -- more lights, more modifiers. I'm very inspired and respectful of photographer Tariq Tarey and the work he does with medium format and even 4x5 in a studio...fabulous stuff.

Mmm, maybe more lights, maybe not. It really depends on what you want/need the light to do. As @TheFlyingCamera suggests, you can learn a lot of different ways to use a single source, and I would guess that that's a far easier way to become proficient than multiple lights.
I really like the light falloff in your photo.
