My Alien Bees

written by dav.d

They say that a photo is worth a thousand words – and there are thousands of ways to take a photo.  A simple camera phone can capture moments.  A photographer may need nothing more than a camera and the light that god is providing with a gorgeous sunset.

Other times it is up to the photographer to create that light – or at least give god’s light a fill light.  Anyway, before I sound too cheesy here is my currently lighting set up that I love! It is an Alien Bees 800 with portable battery pack and a huge honking beauty dish.  The battery alone weighs 20 lbs but you get some cool light.

When I was taking photos of Tad the other day I figured I would take a photo of my gear.  Cause I am that much a geek.
