Hey thanks a lot for your reply BarkerPhotography. Since my last post I have managed to make 1 big soft box which uses 5 25W CFLs and a reflector. This is however the only ‘professionalish’ light equipment I have. Would I be able to use something household for the top main light? Based on the examples, do these main top light(s) require diffusion? Perhaps I could make another box and mount it to the ceiling from chains.
