Portrait Portfolio In A Day | Take and Make Great Photography with Gavin Hoey

[@tedsmith_photography]

Gavin is like your own photography mentor in your home. Great work Gavin - enjoyed this a lot.

[@captaincook6283]

Actually, one of the photographers on KZbin, I enjoy the most watching since entertaining and also very informative. Please keep continuing of giving us great videos. 👏👏👏👌

[@ElevatedThreat]

Yes! This video format is just right! (As opposed to those Live Q&A sessions.)... This is interesting, pleasant, fun and above all, informative! This is the Gavin Hoey I like to watch!

[@RalfWeyer]

Such great sessions with lots and lots of great information in such a short video, absolutely brilliant 👍🙏

[@jimcarmellini8294]

The B&W images of Chloe were stunning! Brilliant setup, beautiful model!

[@gouthamiyuvarajan3428]

Always a fan of Gavin's videos 🤩🤩 very informative and useful

[@michaelschmidt228]

Every time the same result - great work, great people, entertainment and so much to learn - thank you all for your work and the fun that comes over - I dont think, I have missed a viedeo in the last couple of years and hopefully, it will go on

[@DavidVelezPhotography]

Thanks, Gavin for the inspiration. Of course Chloe is the perfect model for this assignment!

[@geraldinebryce594]

😊Perfect timing , my friend has just asked me to shoot a portfolio for her daughter that does acting and musical theatre. Thanks so much. I’ve been binge watching your videos that I’ve saved ❤

[@kirstyhepworth7343]

Great video Gavin

[@GavinHoey]

Thanks Kirsty 👍

[@kirstyhepworth7343]

@@GavinHoey your very welcome Gavin

[@chopperjamie]

That last shot is a banger! Wonderful work!

[@GavinHoey]

Always save the best to last 👍

[@josephchan4198]

One of the best teachers.

[@kennypringle4580]

I’ve watched dozens and dozens of your videos and I love the all. Your expertise as well as your personality make great entertainment and learning for many. Having said that I’d love to see a video where there are no cameras, just your and Cloey sitting down being interviewed about who you both are as people. Maybe talk about your life and the interviewee can be your wife Sam.

[@istvann.huszar420]

If takes 1 Gavin with 10+ years of experience 3 hours to get 40 portfolio-worthy images, how long does it take to get 10 such images for a rookie with 1 year of experience? 😊 Thanks for yet another entertaining, informative, and concise video, Gavin!

[@MikeJamesMedia]

Thank you, Gavin, Chloe, and Sam. Always something to learn... :)

[@GavinHoey]

Thanks Mike 👍

[@itsmetracey9255]

Thats what i needed after a stressy day! I love love Gavin teaching us many different shoots or situation, he's incredible in doing so! Much Love to the UK. greetings from Tracey, Germany.

[@eoslove2022]

Gavin and the 'team' do such a good job of 'illuminating' a session concept

[@zarco123456]

Sei il numero 1! Bravissimo!

[@alun7006]

Great stuff as always. Thanks Gav and the team! Wnen i book a model I will always try to get at least a couple of completely different looks in the session. Sometimes I go in with a specific thing in mind, sometimes there is improvisation involved but a mood/ideas board is invaluable!

[@corykphotography]

Your portraits are always so beautiful. Gavin, I really really want to get to this point one day.

[@paulbell9957]

Terrific video, Gavin. Three beautiful setups and a hatfull of stunning images 🙂🙂

[@davel831]

Gavin brilliant as usual

[@mirandavandenberk786]

Great again,big fan many years🤩

[@wendystumbaugh695]

What a beauty! And, Gavin - you are amazing, all along being so likable!

[@MontrealDriverASMR]

Thanks Gavin, very refreshing!

[@robwatt133]

Love it

[@charleyl264]

With the number of past shoots of Cloe, combined with these shots, Cloe should have an impressive portfolio. She is very beautiful. Thanks Cloe and Gavin. Some interesting ideas for me to borrow too.

[@dunnymonster]

Awesome Gavin & Chloe. Now that's efficiency shooting at its best 👍

[@jorgefiocchi]

[@Maz3-1]

Just awesome! Many years of experience, drive, planning, amazing Chloe, voice activated manual wind machine (sorry lovely Sam!😂) and Gavin creates a portfolio. Well, I guess we need to start calling you Dude Highness (ref The Big Lebowski) :)

[@sharonswan9861]

I always learn so much from you Gavin! Thank you for your down to earth explanation and for using such amazing models.

[@ignacioalvarez6376]

Highly impressive as always. Thank you!

[@Dennis_SpeakOnIt]

Love watching this dude work

[@alanroderick702]

Super video. Chloe's hair is always great with some wafting and wind. The post processing on first set was good. Hi-key with the drapes worked well, and the slot images were fantastic. Well done to All !

[@kevinduffy4233]

Another great video 👏🏼

[@deenugent473]

Beautiful work as always Gavin! 👍

[@vagaickie]

Well that was great!

[@manashkalita2694]

best teacher from adorama

[@AnthonyBonillaPR]

I really like the look of your post processing photos. Do you have any videos that show how to get that look?

[@ale.giacobazzi]

Gavin is such an inspiration..... Thanks for that! 🤩

[@Therealmiketaylor]

That’s an awesome video, thank you! What about same concept, but commercial still life next??

[@stefanolombardi9630]

Hello Gavin, I eagerly await Wednesdays to watch your videos, which are always a source of inspiration, especially for me, as I've been taking photos for just over three years. I've noticed that you experiment with lighting setups using a mannequin head. I'm curious to know how you study the setups that you later showcase in your videos. Just to understand how to practice when a model or subject isn't available, so as not to end up repeating the same setups every time. I have a Batman action figure, but it's not quite the same thing...🤣🤣🤣 Ciao from Lucca, Italy!

[@jerrym8140]

Always entertaining:)

[@promokator]

Thank you 👍

[@abrahamduran7736]

Could you make a video going over tips and tricks when creating a mood board? I am really struggling with that part

[@mohamedmonir4373]

Amazing ♥

[@samatchaapaisuwan7671]

Always enjoy your video!

[@petrnovoselov1373]

Круто. Спасибо. Продолжайте своё творчество и делитесь опытом.

[@cuttinbb]

Great session. In case that I don't have a projector can I accomplish something similas with a fresnel lens located far from the model and a cookie? Maybe the cookie can be blinds, with all but one covered?

[@truthsayers8725]

aaaaaannnnnnndddd ANOTHER great video. can in come to your studio and shoot with Chloe? i need a stunning model like her

[@Or3rFr]

Hello, Always amazed, great work!👏 Can you tell me what screen you're using to get the live picture? Thanks

[@dirkbaasch1]

Very beautiful pictures. It would be great if you showed some of the post process again.

[@stevecraig9384]

Chloe was the perfect model for demonstration

[@terryleephotographer]

Was the choice of speed lights over strobes to help keep the setups as quick and easy as possible?

[@michaelschmitt5413]

Watching this video for a second time (I revisit many of your videos). When you used the reflector to create hair movement, were you concerned about the gold reflective side casting a gold glow on Chloe?

[@mariellevaniterson3098]

💪 You 2 are so good 💪

[@terrysd55]

Nice!

[@joeldisoneloi5406]

Aprendo muito com suas dicas

[@geraldinebryce594]

Gavin I’m thinking of changing to this camera, mainly for portraits because of less weight and good eye focus tracking. My portraits are usually indoors , not massive space and I use flash. Which lens would you suggest to start with. I am currently using Nikon cropped sensor. Thanks

[@RickMahoney2013]

Gavin I noticed that some times you use just one hand to hold your camera and take the photo so my question is it the shutter speed, flash or something else or all of the above for you take great photos like you do without camera I shake and rotten photos ? Cheers Rick. Or the vibration reduction in the camera or lens ?

[@jerrybezdikian9371]

What model is that C Stand with the short column? Thank you for yet another wonderfully informative and entertaining video!

[@dkeithcollins]

Did you make the backdrop you used for the "fine art" portion earlier in the video; or did you buy it? Is there a video you've done on making fine art backdrops? Thanks!

[@thats_Mr_B]

Gavin how can I keep my Ad400 from turning on the boom arm of the c stand. I try to set it over the models head like butterfly but it rotates no matter how tight I think I'm doing it

[@СержИк-э1с]

Bravo👍

[@bethhostetler5214]

Would you please consider doing a tutorial video on lighting couples(2 people) in a small studio? Can it be less challenging? Help!

[@blikart2504]

Great

[@AadityaSherpa]

I follow Adorama bcoz of Chloe and Gavin

[@trevorpatchett4432]

As always excellent and very clear, just need to find a Chloe. The one I know is only 7 years old.

[@ZPOLLAK]

What are you using to view photos with the tether? Tablet? Are they jpeg or raw?

[@jaa7025]

What is the “black roof” thing you used called? I would like to purchase one!

[@GavinHoey]

It was just the black surface from a 5 in 1 reflector 👍

[@davidmason7832]

Gavin and Chloe best together

[@LoraineMorenoPhotography-mo5tn]

The first part is having the vision, then trying to accomplish it. When I've photographed people, I feel very rushed and can't think what to do when it's not working.

[@oscarjeong9438]

I guess how some Adidas ad is made...10:05

[@copaeg]

🤩😍

[@dee9692]

👍👍👍👍

[@rodcage1111]

Who would you say you would aim this style of portfolio too?

[@kennethnielsen3864]

First.
