i will be the onli one shoot for her. it is my first time doing it. i am going to start shooting at after 5pm. i was wondering if i should bring reflector too coz it help to get more shadow on her face. give her more tone look. any suggestion.

keep suggestion coming
 

u will need two hands for the camera and a third hand for your reflector....

better get an assistant if you want to do a proper shoot..... ;)
 

depends which angle you wanna point your reflector... but after 5pm meaning you may only have about effectively 30-45mins of a low angle lighting... maybe can use your flash to reflect...

in any situation, any shoots... if u are comfortable of bringing all the barang barang you have around the place, feel free to bring... no ones stopping...
 

Question to ask yourself,

1) (during the shoot) dam, I should have brought .........
2) (after the shoot, when you see the result) would it have turn out better if i use .........

Can you live with a/m regrets?

If yes, dont bring.
If no, bring.

3) can you do magic with ps and dont mind spending the time to do it?

If yes, dont bring.
If no, bring.
 

Bring in case you need them. :think:
 

Bring them along.

I tried once - set the camera on the tripod, adjust everything, used the build-in timer. Then I hold the reflector to play with the light. Worth the effort if you don't have assistant.
 

eh....i tink tripod is useless.... too much of a hassle for a model shoot...

wat i tink u need is the reflector and prob a good flash....like said prob a good pair of hands to help out lo...

ya first time doin a shoot?????
 

bring everything, and get an assistant
 

indoor or outdoor shoot?
If indoor, it is quite common to use tripod.
But agree that it may be a hassle to setup in the first place.

If you have cable release, or remote trigger; set up
the tripod, observe the model's expression, and
fire the shutter when u deem fit.

The result can be unexpected but satisfying and definitely fun.
 

i think maybe i should just use agd pair of hand first. i still have alot of creativity of shooting thati have use. hehe. actaully u are god damn rite abt the time. that how short time i can shoot.

any great idea to shoot? or great theme
