Hello friendshappy
I'm not new, but not exactly very good with photography. To a point I can do it. I've been taking photos of clothing I make outside for the summer, and have been quite pleased with the turnout. However, winter is just around he corner and I need to take photos inside.
I'm looking for lighting tips for indoor photography. I take indoor fashion shots and need something that gives me decent light. Not regular lighting that makes everything look yellow/orange.
Also, There are not many windows here so light from outside is limited.
Any help would be GREALY appreciated. thumbupcool

Unfortunately I don't really know too too much about lighting, but I'll try and help out the best that I can!

My first suggestion would be to use a good flash. I personally use a Nikon SB-800 speedlight. But a decent flash can go a long way! You can also use multiple flashes to light your subject matter from different angles.

I'm not sure if it's in your budget or not, but you can always look into studio lighting. I know at Adorama.com they have "Budget Studio" light kits for under $100.

And also, be creative! Use whatever lamps you can find to light your subject. You may even want to use flashlights or spot lights as well! And if you're still getting that yellow/orange look, adjust your white balance to compensate!
