About Us

lizorlov.pro is an independent, non-commercial reference site about lighting and backdrops for home photography. The notes here are written from the practical constraints of photographing in a small apartment in Toronto, Ontario — limited daylight in winter, low ceilings, rental walls, and a need to store equipment out of sight between sessions.

What this site covers

The focus is narrow on purpose: how to make a single room work for portraits, still life, and small product photography using window light, modest continuous lights, and backgrounds that fit a tight space. The guides describe approaches and trade-offs rather than recommending specific brands.

How the content is produced

Each guide is written from hands-on home setups and edited for clarity. Where general facts are referenced, such as daylight hours through the Canadian winter, they reflect publicly available information. The site avoids invented statistics, fabricated studies, and unsupported claims; where a precise figure is uncertain, the text uses a neutral description instead.

All photographs on this site are sourced from Wikimedia Commons under their respective Creative Commons licenses and are used for illustration.
