    I'm going to try this with the basic home lamps I have here. The placements are amazing and I think even with no budget at the moment, I can do way better. Thank you for the inspiration. I love your content, Ben!

    I’ve binged watched a lot of your tutorials and I will say, I’ve seen a lot of tldr videos about lighting and yours is straight to the point, concise, just what I was looking for. I’ve been shooting since 2017 but to be honest I haven’t gotten down to the nitty gritty of lighting basics so I’m grateful for your content. A lot of people including myself want to get down and dirty but never go back to basics or take the time to learn them because we’re all so used to getting things fast. Thank you.
