I Like New Toys

This is one of the exciting things I got on my birthday:

A Square Perfect SP500 Platinum Photo Studio!!!!

Everything was tucked in so neatly inside this huge zippered case!

This whole kit includes:

• 2 Photo Tents 
• (one in size 12 x 12" x 12") <-- great for quick and small items :3
• (one in size 30 x 30" x 30") <-- HUGE!!!
•  4 backgrounds (Black, Red, Blue, White) for each of the Photo Tents (8 total)
• 2 lights (with stands)
• 1 Tripod for camera

 

Hehehe... The smaller tent all set up. (I think I might have put the front photo-tent flap the wrong way though -__-;)

I don't think the tripod that comes in this set works too well for the smaller photo tent so I use my GorillaPod ;)

SOOOOOOOO EXCITED!

Haha, I can see why I got this gift though because look at my old "photo studio" setup; I made it using cardboard, tissue-paper and lots of tape:

Hahaha! Kind of pathetic huh! I was using my room lights and desk lamp as lighting. :P It still worked though. The old "photo tent" was just a bit bulky because it doesn't fold up as fancy as the new one I got. :)

(Just in case you were wondering, that item I was taking a picture of was for my ebay store)

How does your photo setup look like?
What kind of equipment/accessories do you use when taking your pictures? :)
