Hi Joel,

If a client is willing to pay Php 5k extra for the studio lights for their group portraits either at the church or reception, I bring the following:

2 - Visatec 600 Watts Strobe Lights
1 - 80X80 Softbox
1 - Umbrella & Reflector
2 - Light Stands
1 - Background Support System
1 - Background Canvass
1 - Infrared Flash Trigger or Radio Remote Transmitter & Receiver
1 - Flash Meter

The above-mentioned items would cost you around Php 150k. You can buy good lighting equipment at Aperture Trading Corp. at half the price and even 1/3 for a 600 and 300 watts strobe lights package. If you want to try it first and experiment, you can rent the basic lighting set-up from Island Multi-Industrial Sales Corp. Hope this helps, Happy Shooting.

anybody use battery powered power packs?

a lot of photographers ive shot with on weddings bring a PHOTON... a hand held flash gun with a rechargeable battery.

never liked bringing my lights to weddings. did it once though, but got paid an extra P15k.
