How do I make a portrait by candlelight?

from Keith A. Enix (kenix@spectraprecision.com)
Howdy All,

First of all, thanks Shawn for what looks like the makings of a terrific forum. My question, I would like to shoot a portrait by candlelight. This is for a class project. (Second class in a series of three Black and White). Where do I start? A grey card in front of my models face, meter off that and then bracket around that? Is there a rule of thumb that I can use or what? Another question, we have to use an alternative camera for a different project. Would I have a ghost of a chance getting a similar image using a Holga?

Thanks again, Keith
