Indoor Shoots

This weekend we did a fitting and some test shots for an indoor photoshoot. I don't have a studio, just large areas where we can set things up. For this shoot, Danielle and fellow model Lulu were trying on outfits and I was seeing if the natural lighting was adequate for the shoot.
Sadly, the lighting was not up to speed. No, I did not set up my lights because I prefer not to use them. I didn't take the diffuser off the flash, so that could have helped somewhat. I don't know.
Instead, we moved the shoot outdoors (where we had much better lighting) and then moved downstairs, where this pic of Danielle was taken.
I learned a valuable lesson, always set up the lights for indoor shoots, even if you don't use them.
