Photography is more than just capturing moments – it’s about playing with light, shadows, and composition. In this test shoot, I experimented with small lighting and color contrast to create dynamic visuals. The goal was to understand how different angles and lighting setups can change the mood of a photo.
A 0.5 Square Meter Studio
Most people think a studio requires a big space with fancy lighting setups, but in this experiment, I wanted to challenge myself:
- How much can I achieve in just 0.5 square meters?
- Can I create high-quality photos with minimal equipment?
- How do lighting and angles affect the final result in a small-scale production setup?
Start with what you have in hand rather than waiting to have enough resources to start, because you will never have enough.

The Challenge of Limited Space
The small space meant I had to be precise with angles, depth, and lighting control to avoid harsh shadows and unwanted reflections.
- Space: A 0.5 square meter area
- Camera: Canon DSLR 250D
- Lens: Kits Lens
- Lighting: Simple white color
- Background: Flatted white paper
- Props: Old books and staff at home

Every photo in this series was taken in my tiny 0.5 square meter studio, proving that even a limited space can produce professional- looking image.
Key Takeaway
A good composition and lighting matter more than a big space!
So, Can I prove that creativity isn’t limited by space? Even in a compact setup, light, angles, and composition can turn ordinary objects in to visually striking subjects.
