I got given a Lighting Kit to play with over the holidays. So I decided I'd start the New Year doing the things I love, training and taking photos. Being New Years Day it's not easy to find suitable models so I figured I'd use myself for the photo shoot after my training session.
Here are some of the photos that I took
(I also left my tripod at home so had to use a lighting stand which worked but limited the angles at which I could shoot).
Here are a couple other photos that didn't involve me as the subject.
