Recently getting into Photography, I wanted to experiment with taking portraits of people. I found with the help of Amazon, I could build my own in-home studio at a low cost!

1) Limo Studio Lights ($63.99)

These 700W lights are my FAVORITE accessory to my in home studio; it really helps my pictures come out bright and my subjects faces stand out. It also comes with a carrying case so it makes traveling hassle free if you have to take the lights to someone’s home to take pictures. Very easy to set up, and for the price I was very impressed!

2) Backdrop Frame ($32.50)

If you don’t have a nice wall or background for your subject, I highly suggest a backdrop. They make your pictures look like they were taken by a professional! A backdrop frame is a definite! While you can hang a backdrop on a plain wall, it’s just easier for me to have a frame I can just set up and break down and travel with. It’s not too expensive and does the job quite well! Plus it’s extendable for different sized backdrops!

3) Kate’s Backdrops ($33 - $54)

I recommend Kate’s Backdrops because her backdrops are made of high quality microfiber cloth. Some backdrops on Amazon I found were to be made from the same material table cloths are made of. Now depending on the size you get, the price may vary. I recommend a plain color. I own three of her backdrops and wouldn’t think of buying backdrops from anywhere else!

4) External Flash ($31.99)

This isn’t a MUST for your in home studio, but it definitely helps fill in lighting for different angles. I also love the external flash not just for studio portraits, but for low lighting events. This external flash isn’t nearly as harsh as the flash attached to my camera and this flash comes with different settings to make the flash brighter.

While there are only four products here, I find these four key items are great for beginners. such as myself, looking to get into photography. The products are cheap, quality is great, and it really enhances portrait pictures to make it look as if a professional took them!

Don't believe me? Well here's my work done with these products!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
