After Gavin has completed his fortune teller photo shoot he takes one of the final photos into Photoshop and has some great tips on controlling contrast and using the Patch tool to clone out larger items such as softboxes.

Love your videos. I know that this was shot a while ago, but in reality when you get a model booked in, how long do you get them in for? I’d love a video where you go through the idea, preparation, booking stage

Hi Gavin!
First of all I want to thank you for all your great videos! They are very helpfull and very very creatives and had let me learn a lot with your techniques.
In this video I have a question: Does the smoke machine make some dust or is it clean? I mean, is only vapour or we have to clean dust? Because I've got a very small studio.
Thanks and greetings from Uruguay!
Well Done!

Hey Gavin,
Thank you so much for sharing all the knowledge that you do. I really enjoy your enthusiasm and the way you compisite photos so easily leaves me speechless. Ive learned TONS from you. I have one question i noticed the wall behind you is not a backdrop - or at least to my eye. If its just a wall - did you paint and texture if so how? If backdrop - which one is it?
Thanks and cant wait to see more videos.
Frank in South Mississippi
Francisco Ortega Thanks for the kind words. The background was aDIY creation. Full details are here www.gavtrain.com/?p=3824
Great video with smoke machine Gavin. Could you please do an outdoor shoot with smoke, in the woods?
Let's say you're using the same light for the front and the back, power output wise. How much is the power output for the camera in the back? Thanks for the good video
Even though the fog fluid was water based, did you find that the atomized particles left any kind of residue on your lens that you had to clean off when the shoot was done?
I like your Videos. learned a lot from you. but i have a question what is your background (studio) some kind of plastic?? greatings from Luxembourg.
Brilliant as ALWAYS Gavin.. Kerry is a beautiful model. Very helpful. I did not see you at the Photographic Show March 2016. Hope you are doing fine. Take care.
What type/brand/model of background is that?
Best an fun guy ever
GREAT
You are a wonderful photographer, illustrator as well for sure a funny guy....
Nice and easy smoke shot. Regards Marco Wydmuch
will a power inverter allow you to use the smoke machine out on location?
Great Videos. Always enjoy watching you. What was the music you played in the background? I loved it but Shazam couldn't pick it up. Thanks in advance Gavin.
Philip Brunner did you get an answer about the music?
which software you use for adjusting the exposure, temp etc..
I am new to this but I am wanting to do this type of background but I would like want to make the color red rather than blue. How would I do that? Any advice would help. I am trying to impress a softball league with amazing photos! Thanks
Gavin, where did you get the crystal ball ?, for the only ones I can fine are clear or coloured and, I like this for it seems to have some air bubbles trapped within it.
what program do you use before you send the image to photoshop.
sorry for the second comment, i meant to ask do adorama ship to the uk? thanks
I wouldn't have ever thought of the gels
Hey Gavin... what mode is your camera on... full manual, Tv or Av...
Great video! Can you tell me what is the size of the studio? Thanks
STG It's roughly 16 feet by 25 feet in total.
Definitely one of you best. Great model, and stunning end result :-)
Hi Gavin... You use a lot of gear from Adorama however isn't that a problem for us europeans? I'm mean in Denmark we have 220 V... the fogger fx is 120V AC Voltage... Inlighten me please :)
Gavin you are very helpful and informative and i appreciate that you share your knowledge. Your videos are great . Bu-sheesh come on you can dress a bit snappier than that tho ! lol
FYI a Hazer is not quite the same as a Smoke Machine. Similar yes, the same no. Hazer is way better for film/photo and a lot more expensive. :) good video as usual Gavin! :D
Hi Gavin, How can I remove a person from a picture I have?
Gavin. How big is your studio?
1:38 mountaineering.
kerry cosplay !!
Jajajajjaja, The Subscribe button!!!

déjà van
:)
when you go to edit your background needs editing a little... lol omg who built your photo cabin? ............. sorry I'm a photographer that notices things lol... don't need a reply
It's either a FOG machine or a HAZE machine ....these are not the same sir.
