A suggestion for Sam in reference to viewer questions - Karl Taylor Education (also UK) uses a small light on the table for Emma (the person who does what Sam is doing). When there's a question, Emma simply turns on the small light so Karl can easily see anytime there are questions. When the question has been addressed, she merely turns off the light. Works flawlessly on his You Tube videos. You could try it.
Love your videos Gav!! They're as informative as they are funny. The models are lovely and awesome. And you're blessed to have your wife and daughter Sam and Freyer to assist you with the tech stuff
Very informative. New to this photo gig thing. I got some coloured cellophane out and wrapped it around a speedlight to play with behind my models, resin statues of a jack russell and a pair of parrots. Now to look for a light stranger.
The magic button wouldn't happen to be the power button would it? Love to see Gavin's videos. Always so fun and informative. That was a great catch by the way. Good reflexes.
Great video Gavin and crew! I was unable to watch live but finally got a chance to watch. Your videos, both the live and pre-recorded, are always great, fun and informative! Thank you.
Great session as usual Gavin. Thank you. Any recommendations for colour gels for the AD200 with a bare bulb? Be great to get really soft fall-off but in colour. I know Flashgun do some but they seem pretty expensive.
So im going to jump forward and to change your bkgrd, key shift your lights. Do you always shoot at your highest flash sync? I have been shooting since the early 80s. Feathering my lights and using angeling of my rectangle soft box for better light control, much like barndoors, based on HS or 3/4 pose to control shadow fall off on subject. Many need to watch your videos, as they will learn how to control what their outcome will be. Key to your explination is the key shifting of you lights, additive or subtractive lighting creating the shift in ratio. Lastly, you use a meter, and so many just use the camera. Love it. Can you use the light, vert bare bulb?
Many thanks. That was a pleasure to see and very useful for me. I don't have the speace but I want to go with the grey one, some speedlights and gels. And maybe the Light Strainer 2.0. ;)
Hi Gavin, you don’t seem to be a fan of flash overexposure, up to + 1IL1/3 for example, in the studio. You transcribe exactly the same parameters that you choose on your Olympus, on your flashmeter.Why this choice (I often find your model underexposed, for my taste...)? Thank you for your answer and congratulations again for your videos well explained and pleasant to watch.
Hi, Gavin, Can you tell me please. When I use a separation light into the background paper; I get a lot of banding. Is this normal, I camarade settings a generally 1/160 @ f8 and shoot between 24 - 70mm
Gavin is a better host than anybody else.💯👍
Chloe is beautiful in every picture. Good video very educational
A new video of Gavin with Sam and Chloe is always a cause of great joy!
You are a gifted photographer and teacher Gavin. I have leaned so much from you and the Adorama gang! You teach and delight. Chloe is lovely.
,,,love these sessions with Gavin and the 'Gang'! Oh, and I learned something new as well. Thank you, folks.
Chloe is always lovely, but I dunno what she did for this shoot, but she looks absolutely stunning. 18:35... that smile....

Your thumbnail is the perfect example of the paradox of choice
Superb presentation y’all. No wonder your a crowd favorite! Thank you very much.
That little light strainer ;-) makes the background look awesome, almost like a hand painted backdrop. Great video Gavin.
I always love and enjoy watching Gavin's videos, greetings from Indonesia🇮🇩
"The Light Strainer" made the feed Abstract, it is a great DIY idea. I use Pringles Crisps tubes as snoots!
Love your videos Gav!! They're as informative as they are funny. The models are lovely and awesome. And you're blessed to have your wife and daughter Sam and Freyer to assist you with the tech stuff

I learn very much about this video. Thanks
(had to watch the recording) but always a pleasure.
Wow !! Amazing images and what a beautiful model ❤
loving the light strainer
Going to make myself a "light strainer", it made the background look amazing. Thank from here in SW France.
add a smile face to your gear will help the camera focus
yes I am torn between paper and fabric.
After my portrait session last night I think paper is best (but you need to hang it carefully)

Great video, high learning content, but was wondering is the model on the thumb nail different then the one in video?

Hey Gavin, I’m sure someone with a 3D printer could make a light strainer with a bowens mount!
hi from Peru
I did not see in your list the Larger Colored gels for background?
Gavin, what colour code is the background, as it looks like it will suit my new studio area.

Спасибо! Было очень интересно и довольно забавно! Подписался )
How could you do this effect with 860 iii instead of a ad200 ? Can the 860 iii do this with the modifier kit !?
Are you tethering to capture one I or Lightroom?
