14 Digital Boudoir Photography A dome is added to the flash to provide softer lighting. A model with hot lights. Lighting The lighting you need depends on where you will be photographing. If you have a digital SLR camera, an adjustable, automatic electronic flash is something you will use nearly all of the time, both indoors and out. A really good quality unit will cost about $300 and will handle most of your needs. A top-of-the line professional unit with separate battery pack is about $1,000 and is probably more than you need for boudoir portraits. If you will be doing studio work, then either “hot lights” or studio flash equipment with softboxes and umbrellas will be something that you’ll want eventually. If you are just starting out, keep it simple and inexpensive and learn as you go along.
