After watching this i know exactly what to do with my supplies ive bought. Thank you so much these tips are perfect! An entire lighting tutorial and diy video all in one, brilliant!

[@Gemini_Connect]

That is so great to hear! I'm glad you found the video helpful.

[@drk6587]

From someone who is considering a foray into product photography, I now have information with respect to DIY softboxes and reflectors; thank you.

[@CamInglis]

This tutorial is so well done with a lot of information shared in a short time. Thank you for taking the time for this, it is very helpful.

[@usernamemykel]

You speak so very clearly and intelligently. SUBBED!!!!!

[@rcplay4954]

Thank you for the to-the-point video!! I learned a TON just watching on mute - will watch again with the sound! This is a photo game changer!!!! TYY!!

[@jcccheung]

Amazing video! Love the variety of examples. NO EXCUSES.

[@wendyortiz736]

Wao. This video was so brightening! Thanks for all the information!

[@Gemini_Connect]

Glad you enjoyed it Wendy ❤️

[@tineanwalker7148]

Very helpful I didn't realize the scope of product photography as I work on my online store, you gave me hope . " keep hope alive " 😀

[@HarryHaller1963]

Great range of ideas, from inexpensive to virtually free, and the video is very well-done. I mainly do landscape and event photography, so I didn't want to invest much in equipment I don't use that often. This is exactly what I was looking for to set up lighting for Ebay photographs quickly and cheaply--many thanks!

[@Salsabilanow1111]

Helping people will never go out of style, thank you 🙏 including your soothing voice ❤️

[@Gemini_Connect]

Thank you for watching 🙏

[@DeadlyNyghtShayde]

This has been a fantastically useful video, I've been stuck for how to solve some photography problems for a good month now, with no extra money to spend on special accessories. This answered any question I could have had, thank you SO much

[@anneschofield3667]

Thanks!

[@aldanaleticiaarguelloprove8027]

Best video I've watched about this. Thank you SO much for sharing, you're a jem

[@AMed-pi9eo]

I really appreciate this video. It's nice to see diy versions of professional gear but to compare them is super valuable! Thank you!

[@anneschofield3667]

Dear Gemini Connect. Just when I thought I had used up all my lighting ideas, you came along with such brilliant suggestions, I cannot thank you enough. You are bookmarked, and subscribed. I struggle with jewelry photography, I would love to see a video on that. I will be back.

[@freddyfpa]

Here in Brazil the products are much expensive, so this diy is awesome for us, and for the final client. thanks a lot!!

[@corporatecluster8704]

You are good photographer and teacher.Thanks for sharing lot of tricks.

[@paulcarpenter-l4t]

This video has given me the confidence to venture into home lighting. Interesting and very informative. Many thanks.

[@Shalina111]

this was both SUPER helpful re: how to save money on all these equipment but also really informative for the beginner photographer (like myself) on how these things even work, and the techniques for using them. thank you so much! really appreciate the help! :) ❤

[@Gemini_Connect]

So glad you enjoyed the video! 😊

[@dmileni]

Oh wow, this tutorial is really great! I want to try my hand at product photography, and my natural impulse is to go online and buy a bunch of lighting equipment that I'm not even sure how to work with. That would cost me a lot, and who knows if I'd end up using half of it. Now I've learned how to DIY the basics, so in the very least I'll learn more about my preferences, and if later I decide to buy, it will be an informed purchase. I also LOVED your very visual explanation about how to use everything. THANK YOU!!!! (My ex-husband was a very technical, pro photographer, with tons of expensive equipment and sharp knowledge. But I learnt very little with him, as it all sounded very daunting. Your manner of teaching, on the other hand, is very approachable to beginners.)

[@Gemini_Connect]

This is so great to hear! I’m glad you found the video helpful 🙏

[@apm11221]

Thank you for these tips. I'm getting into product photography and I'm working with a very tight budget. Tbis will help me a lot!

[@TeesLynx]

Thousands of likes for your video. I was planning to buy a light box for product photography because I dont know how to set up the light correctly, but after this, can DIY everything. Appreciate it. Big thanks.

[@Gemini_Connect]

Pre-made lightboxes vary so much in quality. Much easier and cheaper to DIY IMO. Thank you for watching! 😊

[@Zephyrusization]

[@runningwithscissors3280]

So awesome! I had the right clips, Harbor Freight and inexpensive, and made everything you talked about in 15 minutes. It all works and I just got 'upgraded' in my "studio". Thank You. I see what you mean about the reflection on a wine bottle, difficult.

[@usernamemykel]

YES - Horror Fright is the place to buy the clamps inexpensively.

[@cap_n_munch3139]

Learned a lot. I'm inspired. Glad to find out I don't need 1000+$$ just to reflect light. Haha. I appreciate the way you come off as a "real person". Not some horribly scripted actor like many other vids I found.

[@Gemini_Connect]

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video and the style 🙏😊

THANK YOU SO MUCH. APPRECIATE YOUR TUTORIAL.

[@darrenbivings4227]

Have you ever thought about sticking the Speedlight inside of the LED Softbox with the LED as a modeling light? I have been wracking my brain looking for an LED modeling light solution for my speedlights in Softboxes and I think you may have single handedly came up with the solution. I've been so focused on put the the LED somehow in inside my octagon softbox mounted to a Godox S Adapter that it never occurred to me to try sticking the Speedlight inside a square LED Softbox with the LED Light as the Modeling light. You flipped the script. Thank You!
