Let it rain! Studio sessions are not affected at all by the rain. I use studio lights which consistently create light that looks like window light, regardless of what is going on outside.   Will it affect my outdoor session? Well, yes. : )  If you have an outdoor session scheduled, we can either reschedule or make it […]
