You could cobble together lights from around the house, bounce and diffuse your flash etc etc or even rent studio lighting. But for an amateur unused to dealing with artificial light sources in portraiture, you will get much better results by going the natural light route.

So yeah-get some of those blue tinted small halogen flood/spot lights-and you should be ok..

Refuse to shoot in the evening... all you will have is either fill flash (hardly romantic or sensual) or incandescent (existing light from bulbs) that will give an orangish hue to the degraded images you will get. Scroll down on this page an click on the pregnant woman with her husband to see what I'm talking about: she's the fourth one down on the right side. That's got special effects but don't you just love the mood? Daylight, overcast, no flash in the living room on the floor. All natural light.
