P.S. Extreme Vignetting - sounds like a great new sport!!
Sounds better than pilates.
if you ask me pilates sounds like something you might catch from the water in Mexico....
"You coming out to take some photos Don"?
"Heck no, I gotta stay here at the hotel, near the bathroom....I got the pilates!!!"

if they do manual (or have a sensor built-in for Auto..not ttl) and you can find a slave (optical or radio) that connects (some flash units have built in optical slaves) then yes, they will work with any camera.
get a couple umbrella stands, and have fun!

do you have a graphics tablet?
get a wacom bambo and get elements for free.
90% of the tools for 10% of the price. elements is good.

I have elements 3 and cs2 and use elements 10-1 for work projects.
in fact I'm just about to install elements 4 that I got free with my wacom intous tablet.

it's fast, easy, and if you take the money you save you can buy some plug-ins that will be a better value long term.

here's a hint....
women tend to do the opposite of what you ask them....
so if you stock your studio with bulky winter parkas, and ask them to wear them....

seriously the best way is to offer a class or join a club and hire a professional model through a professional agency.

I wouldn't do nudes, unless the customer approached me, and there were staff members of both sexes on the set.

Got some new lighting equipment in today (too late for that video).

I've posted a video tutorial on how to make/use a cheap light tent.
this is a trial, and not quite a finished product.
please feel free to critique my video and let me know if you have any requests for future podcasts.

the video is listed under podcasts in my website.
