Headshot Booth

 Headshot Booth

Explanation: I use this setup for headshots in my family room because it fits well with my furniture. I got the idea from a book called “Headshots – 101” it’s a free eBook from Photzy and built it around my equipment. You want to start with a totally dark frame. In my small studio with the overhead light turned on, my camera set to ISO-100, shutter speed 1/160 and aperture at f/8, a test shot gives me a totally dark frame. So that’s the base exposure for my main light ISO-100, shutter speed 1/160 and aperture f/8. My fill light is set to f/5.6.
