Photography doesn’t have to be all about fancy gadgets and technology. (Though sometimes it’s more fun that way.) Like a master chef or Jackie Chan in a bar fight, it’s all about knowing what to do with whatever you have on hand.

If you’ve got a tripod, a flash and a window, you’re more than halfway there already. Read on for how to make an inexpensive, so-simple-it’s-practically-zen photo setup. The 5 Things You Need to Make a Studio p.s. We’re hiring in and out of San Francisco: web developers, photographers, product buyers and sourcers, and writers! p.p.s.

In Photo 101 the third thing they teach you, after “remove your lens cap” and “this is a shutter button,” is to keep shadows out of your photos.
