Hi /p/
I've been a photographer for about 2 years now, mainly focusing on street for fun but event for profession. Because I shoot events (by this I mean local shows and festivals) I don't have any lighting gear or setup for portraits, but I would like to start to get in to a more professional setting of business portraits and eventually wedding shots.
I do have my first business portrait shoot coming up here on July 13th, and I'm not sure what to expect. I went and took a look at the place and it seemed to have decent lighting but I'm thinking about renting some lighting gear just in case. Do you have any tips/advice on what to rent and what to expect?
TL;DR: doing a business portrait for the first time and I only have a general idea on what to expect/what I'm doing.
