Trying to light like a college student (on the cheap) becomes a zen how to project for me. I love taking the most basic materials to make striking images. For instance, this shot is lit with 1 light and duct tape(the type you would use to repair AC duct work)and a makeup mirror . I thought that foam board made cheap reflectors, this duct tape I just don't feel bad about throwing out after I'm done with it. 3 or 4 pieces of tape bent and crinkled to order for just this shot. for what less than .50. It really is shots like this that remind me that my motto for photography (much like the rest of life)"think like a poor college student" still holds true even after being out of class for nearly 10 years now.
