| I have a Canon Rebel Sii (EOS 1000) that I just bought second-hand. I know that 35mm is old and tired but I really want to get back into it. I want to setup a poor man's studio in my house to take portrait shots of my friends and family (mostly the kids). The camera has a built-in flash, but I know that will ruin most portrait shots. Any tips on cheap lighting tricks, backgrounds, and photo settings for indoor shots?How about outdoor shots when the sun is finally shining this summer... any help will be appreciated. |

| You could still shoot with natural light indoors - near a big open window. Be sure to use a Large reflector (Any big white board will also do) or a small flash gun to fill in the shadow areas a bit! |

| I have the same problem. Fortunatley I found a really simple cheap lighting package for a small studio:http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/447443-REG/Photoflex_DPFSPTKT_First_Studio_2_Light.htmlIt's inexpensive and perfect for a small house type studio. |

Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.

Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake

The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
