Gavin. You have the power to take amazing photos in a way we can all learn and repeat in small studios without it feeling like rocket science. I learn countless cool techniques from you. congratulations! Thank you.
Hey Gavin, One can not be greatful enough to thank you for your effort to teach what what every serious amateur-photographer wants to learn and apply. You show how to get great results without a 20k Dollar gear , so we can copy what you showed in the video. You are my number one, when it comes to photography. Best regards from Germany
The only photographer who make complete educational work in Easy and practical way. Keeps the good work Gavin. Thanks to Adorama for bringing always such great content 😊❤
You are so genius ! I like all your tutorials because it’s si clear and easy to understand. And your voice is perfect, because i speak french and understand you perfectly. Thanks a lot 😉🐶❤️
I've used the first set up for my headshot sessions for the last four months since viewing this video and they have improved tremendously. Thank you Gavin.
I've got encouraged to shoot in a small room with speedlights and umbrellas because I saw some of your videos from your "small home studio". :) Thank you Gavin!
I appreciate the tutorial on speedlights. I have 3 Phottix Mitros+ lights and find them to be very powerful. I like the ISO tip! Appreciate your passion for pics!
Hi Alan. We actually got lucky with Chloe's hair colour. She'd just done a job for a popular hair dye brand and by chance it was the perfect match for the look we had planned :)
It is always a pleasure to learn from you that with relative simple addings and lightning, you can make great photo's. And with the help of a very nice model as well of course.
Thanks, Gavin for this. It looks like a simple setup and I love the idea of props to tell a story. It's something that we are trying with our camera club portrait group and everyone has so much fun with it.
Time to get the speed lights out of storage. I have been stuck on studio lights as I didn’t think I could achieve the same results, but Gavin has proven otherwise.
Sensational images as usual. All the looks are superb but I do rather like the Manfrotto background as it reminds me of those beautiful Oliphant canvas painted backdrops. Well done, thank you.
Thank you Gavin as always for these amazing videos, I always learn something from every video! I have a question about the Glow ParaPop OTA-C adaptor that I think you're using in this; does that replace a Godox S2 bracket and attach directly to a Bowens-mount soft box, or would I need a Bowens speed ring to attach to the ParaPop magnetic adaptor? Thanks!
Great video mister Howey!! Another great point to mention about speedlights - it´s strange to say - but... They are "weak"... Or at least goes to 1/128 - In many cases you don´t want that POWERFUL studio strobe.
Great video Gavin. Nice and simple and to the point. I've got to say when Chloe peeked up over the reflector I had to laugh. Thanks for the tips and advice. Gorgeous images. The brown you put on the background was fantastic.
I get the combination of zoom lens and tripon. What about prime lenses and moving more around studio? But thanks for the tip about background light. Its something I was looking for.
Hi Marts. Both the Flashpoint speedlights also have modelling lights but on the rectangular one the softbox blocks it and on round head the LED is no match for the video lights!
The Hexapop II 24" (linked in the description) comes with the grid but just for you Tony I a bit of digging around on the Adorama website and... www.adorama.com/glechp24.html
Hello Gavin.. Is the weighted bag on your light stand filled with sand or is it one of the water filled ones? If it's water filled have you had any problems with it leaking? Thanks from Danville, Virginia USA.
I never miss one from you, always interesting and always learning something new. I have a Godox V1, which I guess is similar to the Flashpoint Zoom Li-on X with its round head and a modelling light inside the head. Do you use the modelling light of your Li-on X with a softbox sometimes?
going on 50 years with a camera stuck to my face and still "learn" something from Gavin almost every video!! You are the man Mr. Hoey!!
I'm not far (in years) behind you Tom and like you I'm still learning from my peers.
@@GavinHoey So says the remarkably talented (and humble) Mr. Hoey, teacher extraordinaire.
Every time I watch a Gavin Hoey video, it makes me wanna make more photos
Gavin. You have the power to take amazing photos in a way we can all learn and repeat in small studios without it feeling like rocket science.

The Van Gough of my day... I'll take that Mario 🎨
@@GavinHoey Indeed
Loved the look from the background light with the gel. Really transformed the image and bought the whole look together.
Thank you, it was almost as if I planned it that way 😋
Love this guy

Another fantastic tutorial from Gavin and the team,I will definitely be giving this one a go.
Great job modeling from Chloe as always,
Great job as always.
Love your videos. Very un-pretentious, totally practical and simple. Thank you.
Always learn a lot from your videos. Thanks for sharing
I have studio Big light and this still helped me
Another splendid video as always! Keep'm coming.
Thank you so much Gavin, I'm enjoying your portrait tutorial videos on flash equipment and softbox set ups.... thank you 👏
Great setup I will get that speedlight bracket. No leak light
Loved the colours/styling of al these shots. Chloe's hair and make-up were fabulous, as always. Well done to everyone; images were super.

Nice one Gavin. I really loved this work. Time to go try some of this. Thank you 😎👌🏾
best portrait n video ever by adorama 😍

Styling Sherry, it's so important!
Great video Gavin
Thanks Kirsty 👍
@@GavinHoey your welcome Gavin
Gavin you make it so easy to produce top notch portraits. Always a pleasure to watch .
Clear, straightforward, and easy to understand. Great instructional video
Gavin, you ROCK bud!! you are a TOUR DA FORCE in the photo arena.
Got that same hexapop 24" speedlight combo, that alone was my good reason to get the 860V3 in addition to the V1 flash.
Absolutely beautiful images the two of you created.
the flashmeter is the BEST tool.
Time to get the speed lights out of storage. I have been stuck on studio lights as I didn’t think I could achieve the same results, but Gavin has proven otherwise.
Small but mighty... Go for it Keith 👍
Thank you Gavin!
Great content once again. Cheers from Montreal, Quebec, Canada!
Outstanding 😊
Sensational images as usual. All the looks are superb but I do rather like the Manfrotto background as it reminds me of those beautiful Oliphant canvas painted backdrops. Well done, thank you.
Superb!!!
Wow! Am impressed with the lighting technique. It's actually my first time watching your tutorial. Thanks Gavin Hoey and team
Beautiful, i wanna try the vintage shoot. thanks Gavin for showing the lighting techniques. 👍
Thanks Gavin. Always inspiring.
Outstanding tutorial.
Amazing! ❤
Love your videos, thank you and keep ‘em coming

Thank you for using speedlights! That's what I have and it's good to know that you can get good results without studio lights.
You're not alone there Susanna. Secret insider tip... almost every studio video I make COULD have been made with speedlights 😉
@@GavinHoey thank you! Good to know. 🙂
Gavin is one bada$$ photographer
Thanks for sharing another greate video.
Awesome video Gavin, as always! Thank you to the whole team.
Hoey is the best.
Great video mister Howey!! Another great point to mention about speedlights - it´s strange to say - but... They are "weak"... Or at least goes to 1/128 - In many cases you don´t want that POWERFUL studio strobe.
A beauty dish with honey comb would give me the same results instead of using an octabox with grid? Love the results ❤❤❤❤❤
Very nice and helpful video.
I love these tutorials - thank you! What's the 'client monitor' you're using (that the orange lead goes to)? Is it USB or HDMI?
Really do enjoy your videos, I've learned a great deal from them. Also clear to me that you love what you do. MORE PLEASE!
Thanks and here's more... 10 years more! ruclips.net/p/PL821B7D720DEA39FA
Great video Gavin. Nice and simple and to the point. I've got to say when Chloe peeked up over the reflector I had to laugh. Thanks for the tips and advice. Gorgeous images. The brown you put on the background was fantastic.
Great video, as always, and very helpful to take difficult photos with a very simple way!
Thanks Gavin 🙏🏾
Very enjoyable video, nice lighting, great colours.
nice video, thanks! And - Chloe as lovely as it gets, just as always 👍
I get the combination of zoom lens and tripon. What about prime lenses and moving more around studio?
But thanks for the tip about background light. Its something I was looking for.
Very useful 👍 thanks a lot
i love your vidoes, im learning so much from them :D
Gavin 👏 👏👏
Ensaio fantástico e super dicas de como usar os flashes TTL, muito obrigado.
You are so so good, Gavin! Come over here to Down Under Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 and do some seminars.
Excellent vid. Thanks again, Gav. Oh, as an aside the Godox V860iii has a modelling light, something new compared to the ii or the V1.
Hi Marts. Both the Flashpoint speedlights also have modelling lights but on the rectangular one the softbox blocks it and on round head the LED is no match for the video lights!
Curious as to which tablet you are using. The tether cable seems to be going straight into the tablet.
Amazing with Speed light…
Another great video! What could you have done to make it better? ....Come on, it was GREAT exactly as is!
Awesome as always Gavin. I have the same softbox, but cant seem to find the grid anywhere. There was no link to it in your list. Thanks again.
The Hexapop II 24" (linked in the description) comes with the grid but just for you Tony I a bit of digging around on the Adorama website and... www.adorama.com/glechp24.html
With the table setup, is there a way you can add fill under the models chin?
What is the speedlight bracket you used with the magnet to add the round filters? Very cool idea and i guess you can get all kinds of gels for it
I mean the one for the background
what kind of product is holding the Manfrotto 6.5x7.5' EzyFrame Vintage Background? 😊
Great video
Hello Gavin..
Is the weighted bag on your light stand filled with sand or is it one of the water filled ones?
If it's water filled have you had any problems with it leaking?
Thanks from Danville, Virginia USA.
Hi David. My sandbags are filled with pea shingle. Less chance of it leaking out (compared to sand) and HEAVY!
I never miss one from you, always interesting and always learning something new. I have a Godox V1, which I guess is similar to the Flashpoint Zoom Li-on X with its round head and a modelling light inside the head. Do you use the modelling light of your Li-on X with a softbox sometimes?
Thank you for yet another educational demo. Are the images sooc? I look forward to the next one!
The set-up shots are SOOC. The photo session images I give a little tweak.
@@GavinHoey Thanks
