Studio lighting kits are an excellent way to get started in studio lighting. You will find the most value in purchasing a lighting kit that has everything you need together in one place. Most manufacturers also include handy carrying cases and protective containers as a part of the kit. Listed below are some kits that we’ve selected as good all-around packages for someone that wants to get into studio lighting for wide variety of photographic uses.
< via From the upper deck >Hot Wedding Photographers from Baltimore, MD. This is the third installment of our Hot Wedding Photographers feature, where we originally started in Houston, Texas. The project highlights 10 Wedding Photographers from randomly selected cities around the world which show exceptional creativity/originality and have a great web design I feel is a cut above the rest.
As always, I start by acknowledging I probably left several awesome wedding photographers off the list, so here’s your chance to let me know which ones also merit consideration. Kindly leave your suggestions or comments at the end of this post.

“For the last four-plus years I have been blogging under In Soul, writing about my everyday life in Atlanta, GA, as a retired, 64-year-old woman, mother (of 2) and grandma (of 1), and about my travels around the world. Because photography has become increasingly important and soulful to me, I have wanted to highlight some of my travel photos in another context/format. Thus this account with SC! I want this to be a way to “see” better and learn more about photography and my camera from others who, too, are curious.”

“Inspired by the documentary photography of Alfred Eisenstaedt, Cartier-Bresson, Eugene Smith, Sebastio Salgado, James Nachtwey, and Josef Koudelka, I approach a wedding as an interested observer. My goal is to capture a visual record of a wedding and its emotions while creating as little distraction as possible, remaining respectful of your privacy and sensitive to your needs. After photographing in diverse cultures and in sensitive situations around the world, I have learned the advantages of being discreet and unobtrusive.” <via A Beautiful Day Photography>
