Portable Photo Studio?

There are plenty of photo studios that you can buy and keep in some fixed location, but is there a portable studio that you can wear on your avatar and take out into the field?

I'd like to be able to take portable lights and pose stand(s) to various locations to take pictures and not have to worry about rezzing rights, etc.

Since everything attached to the avatar moves with it, I suspect it would need some kind of locking/unlocking mechanism that would prevent your avatar from moving.

the closest that I know of is Tillie Ariantho's standalone pose HUD. It's not a photo studio, but will lock and fix your camera if you wish, and will play any pose you add to it.

The standalone HUD comes with her stationary pose stand as a second HUD.

Lightwise, i'd prep some wearable lights first - just make your own. usually something within the 1-2m range for light ratio is sufficient. Falloff between 0.25 and 0.75, intensity between .2 and 1. you'll probably want to have one primary light, which is the lightest, and a secondary and tertiary light, both low intensity, to help with ambient lighting. Any sort of positioning will mean you need to edit the rotation on the lights, but if you have experience modifying prim skirts or hair, you should be fine.
