Hi all: I am pretty new to studio lighting. I have been using my 3 Canon speedlites and homemade snoot/barndoor for my studio photo. I am planning to start a businesss in this field. Would you guys recommend on how to select lighting equipment? I have seen flash heads with price range from 150 to 1200 and I am getting a bit lost.

      The shots shown on my profile link here were either natural lighting or shot with studio strobes the shots shown on my profile link below but simple is best still use incandescent lighting or shot with softbox.
