[QUOTE="STM, post: 328968, member: 12827"] You haven't done much portraiture work, have you? To do it [I]right[/I], 4 lights is the [I]MINIMUM[/I] number of lights you should have. At times I have used as many as 6 depending on what I need to do. And when you need to adjust lighting ratios, you WILL need a flash meter. Camera meters can't help you there. Try shooting something like this with 1 or 2 lights. Not that you have to get this sophisticated right out of the bucket but only one strobe for a home studio is woefully inadequate unless you want to do very amateurish looking work.
