I agree to disagree with you Marvin about using a single source of light in a photo shoot. I have gotten some spectacular shots using only a white cardboard reflector.

I've tried it both ways but I dearly love the subtleties of the effect of a single light source and that works well for me.

I've visited your website and can clearly see by your beautiful work that your method of lighting works very well for you...and many people feel the need to experiment with both. Any guidance we can give (or get) is good.

However, we definitely agree that it is one heck of a lot of work to take a good photographic reference for a painting.

The harder you work, the better the result. There are no shortcuts here and mastering this is not for wimps.
