Ever had questions about Studio Lights & Accessories..... - 08-10-2009, 07:17 PM


Hi All,
Have you ever had questions regarding Studio Lighting?
Have you ever wondered what type of lights you should purchase?
Have you ever wished that you could view, touch and operate Studio Strobes?
Have you ever wondered what type of accessories (Beauty Dish - Soft Box - Umbrellas - etc.....) you would need?
Have you wondered if you need Muslin or Paper or Painted Walls to use as Backgrounds?
Have you ever asked "What is a Light Meter used for and is it necessary?"

Well, why not come and have those questions answered.....
I am in the last week of having my Studio remodeled and am going to open it up to all you guys who have ever wondered about having a Home - Garage - Warehouse or even a small studio space and was indecisive in what you should purchase regarding Studio Lights and Accessories.

This is for the "Serious Amatuer" who does not have a studio but wondered what it takes to get one going.....
If you you already have a studio with strobes, you may find this pretty boring or redundant, but you are still more than welcome to attend.

This is NOT a Workshop.....
I will NOT be teaching lighting.....
There will be NO Models or Photography happening.....
This is ONLY for you guys to view Studio Strobes and accessories in hopes of answering some of your questions before you go to purchase your own.....

Date: Sunday - August 16, 2009
Time: 5:00pm - 8:00pm
Place: 101 Crawford St. - Suite #202
Houston, TX 77007
Contact: Mark @ 281.793.9634 (you'll need this number in order for me to let you into the building)





If you have any questions, feel free to post your questions here.....
Oh, and one last thing - Please RSVP here if you are going to attend by stating: CONFIRMED or if you think that you could probably attend by stating: MAYBE
This will at least give me some type of heads-up of what I can expect..... Thanks!

Mark -
I'm definitely interested. Things are kind of up in the air right now with when my husband goes back to work - so I'm not 100% sure. Put me in the 'Maybe' category.
Thanks for the offer!
Donna

I'll try and make it by. Unless my Boss (wife) overrides me.

All I can say is Mark is an excellent guy and his studio is pretty nice and big at a nice location just behind Minute Maid ball park. This is a great opportunity. Thank Mark!

Just a Reminder about tomorrow.....
Looks like we'll have about a dozen people or so.....
Remember, the time is from 5:pm - 8:00pm :: You don't have to arrive at 5 and you don't have to stay until 8, those are just the times available to come and hang out.....

AND ONE LAST AND VERY IMPORTANT THING..... DO NOT PARK IN ANY OF THE PARKING LOTS - YOU WILL GET TOWED - INSTEAD PARK ALONG THE STREET - SINCE IT'S SUNDAY, PARKING IS FREE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY THE METERS - AND DON'T FORGET MY NUMBER SO I CAN LET YOU INTO THE BUILDING - 281.793.9634 - BUT IF THE DOORS HAPPEN TO BE OPEN JUST COME ON UP TO THE 2nd FLOOR AND I'M IN SUITE #202.....

See you all tomorrow!!!

To far for me too!
Can anyone closer to my house do this?
Maybe bring all their stuff to my house?
