BEFORE & AFTER - MINI STUDIO (hot dog, it's done!)

Yesterday I finished the mini studio space. Now there's plenty of room for light stands, a C-Stand, saw horses, a folding table and soon, one BIG HONKIN' Godox AND a whole lotta play. 

That makes me, a Happy Whisk. 

Thanks for the kind words about the photos. They are fun to shoot. Rained most of the day today. Only ran out for second between rain drops to play with the new ultra macro lens. Very different than my other macro. Gonna enjoy learning this new bit of kit.

And that my Boogerbutts wraps up four posts in one week. Whhhaaatttt? I never do that anymore. This is why I enjoy unscheduled posts. Just write 'em and shoot 'em out. 

Huggs and Bugs, Me.

    1. Hey Debbie. I agree. I like it when the fridge is cleaned out too. I always keep opening it and looking inside after I clean it.

      The mini studio should work well this go. It's a shared office with hubby. Pretty much split down the middle.

      Hope you have yummy weekend. Cheers!

    1. Been a battle over the years to get this space to work. Feels good now though. Are you planning anymore trips outdoors or more flower shots? I did pine trees too again today. They are so fun to shoot. I had no idea how pretty they were close up. Loved your photo collection from a few posts back. Excited to see what you shoot next

  7. I love the Baker's stand and used to wish I had one, but now I'm happy enough with what I have.

    1. Hey River. Yes, that Baker's Rack is a game changer. Tim picked it out years ago and we got it for I wanna say 80 US or less. Very good deal at the time. I'm not sure what they go for now. I get sticking with what you already have. That's where I am with shelves. Unless I build something. Which I might do soon for a photo thing. Anyway, yes, I get that happy enough part for now. For sure.

  15. It's nice to get your studio space cleared out and organized. It looks great! My camera has a really good zoom-in lens. It's an old camera, but still doing its magic. I can't wait to see some of your photos, and take a few nature ones for me. ; )
