DIY Photography

Why purchase, when you can create it yourself for a lot less? Start-up photographers should really think about alternative solutions before purchasing photography equipment right away. If you inherited a lot of money and starting out as a photographer, then be my guest! But most of us who want to tap into this photography sickness, don't have a lot of money to burn.


Bare Necessities:

1. SLR Camera

2. Lens (prime or zoom lens)

3. Curiousity


DIY (Do-It-Yourself) Equipments:

1. Lighting

2. Back drops

3. Soft boxes (for product shoot)

4. Reflectors

and the list goes on!


Great sites that offer step-by-step instructions are, http://diyphotography.net, http://diynetwork.com, http://strobist.com.
