    3. What size tent, aimee? And are you planning on using the lights in other ways as well? "Affordable" may still run you at the minimum about 100 usd.

      I don't shoot much "high-key" work, but several of our members do! I am a bit surprised that this question hasn't been addressed yet...

      Have you gone to ritzcamera.com and researched the several photo tent kits they have put together? I know you can buy pieces seperately there, as well!

    4. the tent is a bit taller than an sd13 boy and is square. ^_^ I know it might cost me a bit, but I'd rather not buy like $600 worth of lights you know? also, I'm low on space, so I can't get the really big professional lights.
