I'd taken some of my favourite and best loved photos on these lights, but they had a bit of a reputation for overheating. They're now discontinued and have been replaced with other budget strobe options new to the market, but at the time and for the price point, they were fantastic.

In today's 101, I cover the first strobe lights I ever bought! They're small, they're basic, but ultimately they can do what you need them to do. I always say this, but a light is a light is a light, and what you are paying for is consistency, convenience, build quality and of course, adaptability in the long run.

Don't waste 20 minutes watching a video.. get to the point in 1 minute! And if our 101's haven't covered what you're looking for, then lets us know via a comment. We can't promise we've covered it, but we can promise we haven't made you sit through 20 minutes of waffle to find out!

Learn essential tips and techniques to effectively work with models in a studio photography setting for stunning results.

Here I talk about shooting two models on the other side of the world in Tokyo, Japan. You're just making it up as you go along, essentially. This is when experience comes in to play as you'll inevitably be limited by a lack of local knowledge, equipment, and other major variants like the weather.

How do you go about finding someone to photograph on the other side of the world, and what options did I use to find models in Japan? I discuss my fails and philosophies about TF collaborations, and throw in a rant about Meta and its algorithms for good measure!
