Investment for Photo Studio Equipment

Hi guys!

I have a slight problem need your inputs. Im planning to establish my own photo studio.

Any one would suggest a good brands and set up for studio photography equipment?


Thanks

that's good news! we'll soon have a venue to shoot studio portraits
i think the most important and most expensive equipment is the studio lights. check the actual flash output power against declared or advertised flash power. Consider also actual recycle time and constant color output, modelling lamp, slave/master function. check this links first before looking at the brands: http://www.studiolighting.net/

popular brands: broncolor, visatec, bowens, elinchrom, alienbees, aurora
our office use aurora for product shots. personal ko, i use alienbees happy naman ako with it.
sana naka tulong

hey! i just remembered you are from laguna, i hope the studio you are planning to set up is in metro manila...

uy ok yan bro thats good news nga

Bro magkano budget mo ?

kasi yung mga binangit ni bro renegade nasa high price yan. Pero if you have money to burn go the best brand na wala ka talo sa quality ng lights na ito. ( i like alienbees din..... hanapan nyo ako ng sugar mommy para makabili ako nito )

Pero bro if may budget constraints ka medyo consider mo kung anung yung immediate need mo na equipment just enough to start your own very own studio (e.g 3 light setup with modifiers and a enough space to start up). then pag may additional budget ka dagdag ka na lang ng more equipment).

At maganda pwedi mo gawin bago bumili ng equipment is to try to rent out other studio to try there lights and equipment para may comparison ka sa performance. Most studio nowadays hindi ganun ka highend yung mga ilaw nila just enough power output lang ok na.

Kung canvass ka ng studio equipments try mo itong sites lahat ito local sites para madali ka maginquire sa pricing.

sana matuloy studio mo para makikishoot kami

thanks sa mga comments,


Bowen and Aurora is a good brand.

3 factors need to established

1. Lights set up
2. Background Pattern including the stands
3. yung studio location.

Nakita ko nga sa Art Movement Studio very nice yung setup nila for glamour and practice setup.

proposed location mo?

Hi mga master im manuel from cagayan valley ahm gusto ko sanang maginvest sa photography business meron na akong cam and meron kasi akong computer shop kaso mahina na dito sa lugar namin kaya naisipan na pasukin ang photography, konting renovation nlang sa shop ko... can you help me mga master....

hi manuel

bro check mo previous post ko mostly yun din itatanung mo sasarili . Then isipin mo sino target market mo anong klaseng studio are you catering. from there you can set you priority sa mag setup ng stuido mo .


if may question ka post mo lang dito marami din sasagot sa iyo.


HTH

Sir Hayok... ang naiisip ko mga target ko sa mga events like wedding, birthday parties ETC. ok na ba ung 150k na budget? for lightning and other materials??do i need another option?

Hi manuel. same question we have.

Basically naisip ko magtayo ng studio for renting purposes then I asked myself again kung mababawi ko yung inputs ko sa ganun business. I think tama yung ideas mo to expand the studio to cater wedding, parties and etc relevant event.

Also we need to ready sa market about pricing and the services included.

I personally studio rental + production sa mga client namin which can be added sa services namin here as product shoot and company brochure setup.

I think 150K budget is enough for investment. isama mo na yung print production which yung mga printer continuos ink.

then kung malaki yung place mo pwede ka mag handle ng funshoot sa mga photographer all you need to do is gather models directory and MUA.


Best wishes sa plan mo bro.

tnx master but the set up of the studio? ano pa kelangan na bilhin po
