Everytime i get over my crush on Sophie, you bring her back in your videos to get my heart pumping fast once again. 😊 . Awesome video as usual Gav!!

@jeffnewman8261 11 ай бұрын

Sophie was extra amazing today! That was a good tip Gavin about taking a wide photo to show where the light from the flash is hitting the reflector.

Great video guys. Sophie is just a natural poser, she knows the right pose to hit and uses her hands very well. This just proves you can do a photoshoot in your living room without a ton of space.I especially loved the low key shots of Sophie at the beginning when you started feathering the light.

Gavin and everyone involved in the team. Excellent video, I always learn something new from you. keep up the great work. Enjoy a great day.

@vernonr7404 11 ай бұрын

Thank you. Biggest tip for me was the suggestion to ask the model to turn, look toward the modifier until they see the liner inside the softbox - in order to insure a catchlight in the eyes. Everyone says how important catchlights are. Meanwhile, Sophie should post her video on how she creates those mesmerizing facial expressions. Or maybe she really doesn't know - just confidence that comes with lots of practice and experience.

@kevinwhite6176 11 ай бұрын

One of the things I don't see a lot is how these spaces are small with the length and width, however Gavin's studio space there has a very high ceiling. Having a low ceiling can add additional constraints - trying to do a full body portrait with a low ceiling will leave you banging your softbox against the ceiling. I'd like to see some 'low ceiling' tips.

@GavinHoey 11 ай бұрын

Ceiling height here is 7'10", not low but certainly not high. As I said in the live stream, I'd swap floor space for ceiling height any day!

Please after some advice, Ive got a Bowens xmt500 battery strobe, If i set my D850 to M 1/250th sec (FP) and ISO 100. and the aperture to F8 The flash is set to Manual. Without the flash the image is black, however even with the flash at full power the image is still black. The only way i can get any light even then its under exposed is to set the shutter to 1/60th. Ive checked the obvious no bracketing set etc no exposure compensation etc. Ive tried it with my D4 and its exactly the same. Any pointers?

@mhc2b 11 ай бұрын

Great video, as usual, but I still maintain one "beef" with your term "Sync Speed." When you state that 1/250 sec is "the" sync speed for your camera, the implication perceived is that this is the ONLY sync speed. And this is simply not true, as any shutter speed slower is still a valid sync speed. Correctly termed, the fastest shutter speed that can be used on a focal plane shutter, with flash, would be considered the "MAXIMUM sync speed."
