I think the best help you can find is from yourself. Most everything I've done and am doing I learned on my own, occasionally with some very basic help from a teacher (simple studio lighting ideas and whatnot, how to open a file in photoshop, shyte comme ca). Best idea is to look around thwe house, and see what you can use as reflecters, light dampeners, muters, perhaps ways to create makeshift (not so powerful) spotlights, etc. Available light is great in these shots, specificaly the first and last ones. The only thing I'd say for the last print to touch up is maybe darkening the background behind the couch a bit to separate it from the wall, but otherwise this stuff kicks! ry
