How to select professional studio lighting equipment?
Hi all: I am pretty new to studio lighting. I have been using my 3 Canon speedlites and homemade snoot/barndoor for my studio photo. I am planning to start a businesss in this field. Would you guys recommend on how to select lighting equipment? I have seen flash heads with price range from 150 to 1200 and I am getting a bit lost.
All you need to know at the link below. But simple is best .. I still use incandescent lighting for everything except some glamour photography.

Only 4 of the shots shown on my profile link here were shot with studio strobes … the rest were either natural lighting or shot with one 750 watt Lowel Tota-lite with umbrella. In the studio, I use one 1000 w/s head with a softbox.
