Romantic Ideas for Valentines Day: lighting

<div style="text-align: center;">I got 2 new photo lights and a new backdrop and I am so excited about it. I set them up yesterday and shot some of my beautiful daughter who sang at her school's talent show last night. Afterwards, she wanted to pose and shoot some of me. She's a pretty good photographer for only 9 years old!</div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWyIMp5dFHSQGywvr4-8iN985B6nr2mEDmtMYHqVbrWHnggIMY3hpPuccoo16l8WWmY96d-Fgk3P-V52N0mo_e-VzqmKq_ufBbMOqONBbcsnFqQLWJFxCNiJk_7F99AwiK_hlHP8-TNjQ/s1600/Justina11.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572078934065654818" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhWyIMp5dFHSQGywvr4-8iN985B6nr2mEDmtMYHqVbrWHnggIMY3hpPuccoo16l8WWmY96d-Fgk3P-V52N0mo_e-VzqmKq_ufBbMOqONBbcsnFqQLWJFxCNiJk_7F99AwiK_hlHP8-TNjQ/s400/Justina11.jpg" style="display:block;
