I'm at least keeping an eye on guide numbers. I can get either for about the same price (going cheap).

So one for speedlights.

And one for studio flash.
Is that unit higher output than a speedlight?
Does it impede mobility?

And do either of you prefer to bring your clients to you, or to go to your clients?

>that picture: my face is so ugly I have to hide it
that looks like absolute trash by someone who doesn't know how even the most basic of correct lighting

Headshots are a bright and clear introduction, not a campy horror movie scene from alley shadows. It not only shows bad judgment and doesn't serve the purpose, but it shows low self-esteem "Hey it's the edgy hide-in-shadows queerbag who hopes if there's no light we won't see how bald he is!"

terrible bait.

OP here.

I will consider all suggestions.

Unlike >>3115268
that faggot, I can see some very good uses for moody lighting for certain headshots.
