[@TheAllstarfl811]

You are my favorite photographer hands down. You’ve taught me so much!

[@zoltanbodo8266]

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!

[@gosuc7340]

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

[@karenarden3266]

Thanks Gavin!! Wonderful video as always!!! I look forward to your videos and I always learn from them.

[@andrefelixstudio2833]

Very nice presentation!

[@marcusprime357]

Clever as always Gavin Hoey! Like the use of props!

[@barkyvonschnauzer2188]

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.

[@dhennis888]

You are so so good, Gavin! Come over here to Down Under Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 and do some seminars.

[@ViciousXUSMC]

Got that same hexapop 24" speedlight combo, that alone was my good reason to get the 860V3 in addition to the V1 flash.

[@mikeletson1962]

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!

[@davirosa]

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.

[@DylanRichardson841]

Another splendid video as always! Keep'm coming.

[@eddiebond2941]

Another fantastic tutorial from Gavin and the team,I will definitely be giving this one a go. Great job modeling from Chloe as always,

[@kavanlake871]

Nice one Gavin. I really loved this work. Time to go try some of this. Thank you 😎👌🏾

[@HillengaFotografie]

Clear step-by-step plan in terms of structure and explained why you do or do not do certain actions. Thank you!👍

[@sherrydavis6293]

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.

[@GavinHoey]

Styling Sherry, it's so important!

[@alanroderick7153]

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.

[@GavinHoey]

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 :)

Great work Gavin Thank you

[@marike1100]

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.

[@jerrym8140]

Absolutely beautiful images the two of you created.

[@keithmonday5155]

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.

[@GavinHoey]

Small but mighty... Go for it Keith 👍

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 😉

Very nice and helpful video.

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.

nice video, thanks! And - Chloe as lovely as it gets, just as always 👍

[@ShawnRead1]

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!

[@izgecomer]

Outstanding tutorial.

[@deenugent473]

Awesome video Gavin, as always! Thank you to the whole team.

[@mjpt57]

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.

[@GavinHoey]

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!

[@donofthedead66]

Great job as always.

[@geokarageorgos]

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.

Thank you

[@tonyclarke5068]

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.

[@GavinHoey]

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

[@gillfry1669]

Gavin you always make the best videos!! I have a question you might like to address in a future video. I am trying to do full length portraits with white curtain background and white floor. I nearly have it right but not quite. I have a white backdrop and then sheers. A Godox 200 either side between the two. A Godox 200 in a big black umbrella at the front and a reflector at my tripod. My problem is I still get light drop off down the dress and I don't want that. So how can I get the beauty light on her face but keep everything light and bright. I hope this makes sense. I can send you a photo if you wish. Thanks always for your fantastic videos. Much appreciated.

[@pattymattes7124]

I can do this! That's one of the reasons I love your videos as I feel like I can do this. I noticed you put another backdrop on the floor. How does that work? Do you like that? Thanks again for another awesome video!!!

[@kevinparkes417]

Great ideas as always Gavin and great work from Chloe. I find a small speedlight - I use a Godox TT350 - is always handy to light those little details that a bigger flash would overpower.

[@toine1915]

Hi, Gavin. The Godex V1 has a modeling light. Antoine

[@watchdogu.s.a.8973]

I had to stop for a minute at 1:15 where you said that ISO 200 requires TWICE as much light as ISO 100. At ISO 200 the sensitivity of the sensor is double that of ISO 100 and it requires HALF as much light unless my old mind has gone astray. Higher ISO equals less flash for the same exposure.... right?

[@fdomartineza]

actually, he said iso 100 vs iso 200 requires twice power... so imho he ment iso 100 needs more power

[@Yom60]

Amazing with Speed light…

[@bjartewergedahl5824]

Thank you for another great video. Really nice pictures, but hey, with a model like Chloe it is hard to get it wrong :) It is nice to se that two speedlights and a small softbox will get you a long way. You mentioned that a downside using speedlights, is the lack of a modelling lamp. I do believe the V1 (X) has that feature, at least the Canon version has that.

[@rolisaenz]

Gavin, you ROCK bud!! you are a TOUR DA FORCE in the photo arena.

[@donbodat]

Thank you for yet another educational demo. Are the images sooc? I look forward to the next one!
