I use “Virtual Photographer” all the time. If you have Photoshop, it’s an absolute must, and it’s TOTALLY FREE. I could talk a ton about it here (and I will in a video soon), but just download it and try it out. I’ll be shocked if you do not instantly love it.
I didn’t know about their “Virtual Studio” product until right now! TOTALLY FREE.
