Hi,

Hopefully someone can help!

I'm a graphic designer putting together a new website featuring some of my printed pieces.
I want to photograph the pieces myself using various backdrops, coloured paper, wood etc.

I have a DSLR and tripod but no other equipment, ie. lighting.

I wondered whether I could get good results using a cheap flash gun and mini diffuser.
Mainly so I don't have to buy more expensive lighting setups.
I also don't have the space for lighting really.

I have read about using standard desk lamps but I thought a flashgun and diffuser would give a nicer look?!

Any help is appreciated.
cheers
Nigel

What is the average size of the printed
pieces you want to digitalize?

What is the surface
finish to these prints?

Are they framed and/or glassed?
