Hello Oh-wise-ones!
 
My director has asked me to look into getting a set up to take photographs of our collections. We already have a copy stand we use for small items, but we need to put together a system for taking photographs of our ethnographic materials (clothing , paintings, baskets, moccasins, wood panels, etc.).
 
What do you folks use in terms of lights and/or umbrellas for diffusing light, backgrounds, or anything else?
 
Is there anything I should make sure I am aware of before purchasing equipment?
 
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
 
Best,
Karen
