Can this hairlight be used for family portraits, maybe 6 people, directly above, or do I need one on on each side?

The light has a wide range, however, I would recommend using two hair lights. Hope that helps!

I use these studio lights exclusively for close-up photography. Anything you can put on a table and take pictures from 1 to 2 feet away. The quality of your pictures will depend upon the camera used. Mine takes three exposures then combines them into one. I also use the camera on a tripod because shutter speeds tend to be slow. I have upgraded to 60-watt flurescent bulbs for more light. These bulbs are a little too large for the reflectors but they work ok.

Depends on the size and type of lighting units as far as whether you'd need more than one stand. If they're really large, then yes, if they're small-ish effect lights, then you'd probably be fine with one, although space would be tight. I was able to fit a medium-small sized effect light and one of the larger American DJ lasers on this stand without a problem, but anything else might've started getting cramped for space. With regards to where you should place it, if you've only got one stand, I'd suspect you'd want it behind you just because otherwise it'd be between you and your audience (unless you put it off to one side in front of you). If you have two stands then you can put them off the the left/right and not have anything between you and the audience.

Yes. It swings out of the way when you don't want to use it. This light also gives you the truest colors. I attach mine to the table but it also has a stand if you prefer.

Technically you can. However, you have to move the NoNo fast enough for the light to come on and stay on. The contours of the face and chin make this extremely difficult, if not impossible.

My wife uses the light for reading (she has early stage Macular degeneration). She thinks the light should be fine for your application. The gooseneck is capable of a fairly wide range of vertical positions although it is a bit stiff (probably good) and the base is nice and heavy so that the light is stable in all positions. The quality if high and it assembles easily and quickly. I hope that helps you decide.Ed Getchell

Hi Mia, if that's your only light it might not be enough. I have mine over dining room table but I have other light from outside and in. I do love this bulb though and happy I bought it.

I used this item all sorts of way's with out any issure's ! This does not produce a diffuse light up close and in my opinon it shows a sharp beam.You can connect several led infr. lites! As far as angles are concerned you can position it at any angle.If this does not suit you there is other products to adjust your needs.I hope this was some what helpful. DAVE S

I tried to light 24"x30" photo of my grandson with 2 of my flutes light and it had too many shadows.You might do better with a fluorescent light. I think you would get better results with a small fluorescent light.

I have mainly used the lights for single person interviews and vertical works good. I have messed around with horizontal and it's ok. I think you should keep it vertical.

It can be attached either way, it's up to your preference with regards to space and area that you are trying to light

probably a 2 light option would be best, for intense lighting to apply makeup, etc.

No. This is supplemental lighting for decorative purposes only. You should use a proper light.

The light angle is adjustable so that may help your situation as they could angle back towards the labels from the ceiling. 4 feet is a ways so I would go with more then one for sure. Also make sure you can reach them because they are touch activated, not motion activated.

No, this light is best on a tabletop. For a headboard this is what you want: GLW 3w Flexible Goose Neck Led Desk Lamp, No Flickering Eye-care Clip Table Lamp Light 2700k Warm White 200lm Aluminum Silvery

Instead of one at the top of the mirror horizontally, I put one vertically on each side of the mirror. I absolutely LOVE them and they are plenty bright, though some people I've showed them to think they are a bit bright for the area (8' x 4' vanity area - the 4' being side-to-side and 8' being front-to-back). They don't bother me at all.

No, you shouldn't have any trouble. We control three at a time on our track lights with no problem, and they're spaced much farther apart than they would be in a ceiling fan. Keep in mind that you will likely need another light source for when you need brighter light in the room.
