Gavin has probably the best tutorials. They are professional and Gavin has such a good energy, it is inspiring to listen to him. I love the simplicity of his teaching and it's easy to follow his advice step by step in order to learn. Added with the professional quality in the films, both video and audio, these are so good.
Thank you Gavin. This was excellent. You answered three big questions for me in one shot!
Low key, Metering and Photoshop!
Damn that trick with removing the softbox was so good! Learning a lot of your videos
Gavin Hoey: superb !
Phenomenal, best photographer and educator on the internet! Amazing energy!
Probably the best photographic tutorials on the web. Thanks Gavin.
But not the best model, she absolutly don't know what to do
This as as much the photographer's fault as the model's. The photographer should be directing the model.
I agree. The comment is wholly unnecessary.

Awesome work thank you for the video
Gavin, Ty you have simplified many of my questions in one video. Oh and I have watched many.
Every vid you do is brilliant and I always get something new from it. Thanks heaps again for making me grow in my Photography.
The Camera RAW part was super informative. I've been using Photoshop for a very long time and I've always done those kinds of edits 'manually' after the Camera RAW adjustments. It's effectively the same result, but this technique is really slick. Thank you.
Love this, thank you Gavin!
The trick for removing objects in Lightroom is so cool: obvious, easy and new to me. Thank you.
