I was constantly producing what I knew was good work in person but the minute I took a picture, it did not do my work justice. At times, it actually made it look awful!
I don't like to edit or filter my pictures as I believe in selling myself with a "what you see is what you get" attitude.
I had seen people post about ring lights but they were quite expensive at £200 plus which is a big investment when you only work weekends and trying to make a profit! Then there are different specs and sizes to think about. After doing a bit of research and shopping around I managed to find one on sale on Amazon. I also ordered a tripod and a camera attachment for my Nikkon.
I can honestly say this has been one of the best investments I have made! Not only has it completely enhanced my pictures and done my work justice, it has also proven invaluable for dark venues such as wedding suites when doing bridal make up!
Its not a top of the range product but it works for me and well worth the money.
It is dimmable and comes with its own carry case.
I paid £82.07 on sale from £142.14

I often look at other people pictures and think "How on earth do they get their make up looking so good on camera?" Besides the obvious filters and enhancing apps, I couldn't understand how other people seemed to take such good pictures.
