I'll have to go through my older stuff and see if I can find mine. Used to love going there to shoot while it was still abandoned.
For today though another long exposure using an ND filter up in Algonquin Park.

Yes, there are studios where you can also rent lights, backdrops, etc. Can rent cameras and equipment at Vistek.
Having access to fancy lights is one thing, knowing how to use them is another. Fancy lights have many buttons and options to figure out.
Do these studios also offer professional help or are you on your own?
I notice there are little studios at Wal-Mart for family portraits but they do all the work for a fee.
Think the equipment rental is more for people who already have the strobe lights, but need extra lights for some reason. Some studios might help set up the lights for you, and set the power, location, etc. But would be easier for them to just take the picture for you. The bigger strobe lights plug into a power pack, and are not something you can just pick up and use unless you have used them before.
Have seen studios that offer strobe lighting courses, and have models to take pictures of.
Yes there are studios that offer lighting workshops. But if you look on youtube there are videos that can explain studio lighting. But I recommend that you study and understand exposure, first step to understanding lighting.
I use umbrellas with white light. If you set them up right they can also produce even light just like you see in the second picture. The first picture would look very boring without the shadows in my opinion.
Not a huge fan of umbrellas. Often used by beginners to learn lighting. Out grown them, moved on to something more advanced. Photography can cost you $$$$$ because you always want to improve on something and that means buying new gear.
For those who like spinners with large breasts.
Oh yum! Is she an escort?! Nice pic btw.
Nice shot but I think cropping out the bottom (the ground and birds) out would make a much more pleasing landscape photo. Turn a snapshot into a photo just like that.
The sign bottom right hand corner says "Cock now now being served"? LOL!!!
