Love this room.
Hired the studio out for a daylight shoot, so all the lights and other stuff are (almost) out of shot. Took this quick photo before putting it back to normal for Monday's hire session.

If you've use the studio here and you're not that confident with using the lights, this workshop is recommended.
I'm running this studio lighting workshop on Saturday 18th August. 3 places to fill. This is the only workshop I know of in NZ where you can learn this stuff - hands-on -experience, not a demonstration and not a YT video. Email me.
