Gabriela Gabrielaa | Creating for Yourself
For Gabriela, photography is about more than capturing a polished final image. It’s about becoming part of a place, building trust with the people around her, and recognizing the everyday moments that quietly connect our lives. In this week’s podcast, she discusses moving from commercial photography into street portraiture, learning to approach people with confidence and respect, and allowing time and genuine connection to shape her work.

Tamron 16-50mm f2.8 Review: Smaller, Lighter AND Cheaper
All photos edited with my Hibiscus Lightroom Preset Pack: https://juliatrotti.com/products/hibiscus-lightroom-preset-pack Hey everyone! Today I am sharing my review of the new Tamron 16-50mm f2.8 A which I'm using for photo and video on the Sony A6700. I'm testing autofocus, image quality, bokeh, chromatic aberration, lens flare, video and more. I also have the first party equivalent Sony 16-55mm f2.8 G lens which I will take a few comparison photos against. Let me know what you think about the lens in the comments!

Stop Guessing with Main Light Placement: Choose It with Intention with Lindsay Adler
Where you put your main light is one of the most important decisions in a studio portrait. It sets the entire mood of the image! But how do you decide what's right for your light placement? Anyone who claims there is one correct answer is over simplifying it and too formulaic! I learned early on that the 45 degree rule is a decent starting point, but it doesn't give you intention or real control. In this video I walk you through the framework I use to decide main light placement on every shoot: the questions I ask myself about mood, texture, face shape, distance, and the role the light needs to play in the scene. You'll learn how shadows control drama, how raising the light sculpts the face (while you have to also watch for catchlights), and how distance changes both softness and contrast through the inverse square law. Don't feel confined by a lighting diagram. Sure, its a great place to start but make changes based upon your actual needs and what you want to create! We’ll cover: • How to define the mood of your image first and THEN decide the right light placement • Using light height to sculpt cheekbones and jawline while managing catchlights • The effect of distance on softness, falloff, and contrast through the inverse square law • Why fill light and main light placement always work together • How to adapt your setup when the main light also needs to light the background or bounce into a reflector If you're new to studio lighting, my class Master Studio Lighting (https://lindsayadler.photo/msl) walks you from the fundamentals of exposure and modifiers through this exact decision-making framework.

Create Dramatic Black & White Portraits In-Camera with Gary Hughes
In this episode of Adorama TV, photographer Gary Hughes demonstrates how to create dramatic black-and-white portraits using lighting, reflections, and motion effects captured right in-camera. Starting with a basic test shot, Gary builds the finished image one deliberate decision at a time. He explains how he measured his lighting, selected wardrobe and background colors specifically for black and white, and kept his subject’s face as the visual focus of the portrait. Then it’s time to experiment. Using an inexpensive sheet of Mylar, constant LED lights, a reflector, moving fabric, a fan, and a slow shutter, Gary creates warped reflections and haunting motion effects without compositing them afterward. You’ll learn how to: • Plan and light a dramatic low-key portrait • Measure and control a two-stop lighting difference • Choose colors intentionally for black-and-white conversion • Use a monochrome preview while retaining the flexibility of a RAW file • Create unusual reflections with Mylar • Control unwanted reflected light with a simple flag • Add motion with fabric, a fan, and a slow shutter • Move the reflective surface during a long exposure • Turn one carefully planned setup into a variety of finished portraits The creative effects shown in these images were captured in-camera, Watch Gavin Hoey's mylar video here: https://youtu.be/uc13CHJfHRM?si=eF6RWue68PMfbo2k SUBSCRIBE AND BE PART OF THE ADORAMA FAMILY: ➥ https://www.youtube.com/user/adoramaTV __________________________________ Be the first to shop our great deals and sales by signing up for emails from Adorama! https://www.adorama.com/MyAccount/Login 🔷 Save 5% Every Day† or Special Financing* On purchases of $199+ with the Adorama Edge Credit Card.

How to Choose the Perfect Softbox Shape | LIVE with Gavin Hoey
Octabox, stripbox, or the classic rectangular softbox, which one would you choose? In this live session, photographer Gavin Hoey looks at three different softbox shapes and shares his thoughts on when each one works at its absolute best. Working with model Chloe, Gavin will start work with a single Flashpoint flash and dive into if the shape of the softbox alters the shape of the light. Along the way, you'll get plenty of real-world tips on when one shape is better than another, especially if you are working in a small home studio or have a temporary setup. To wrap it all up, Gavin will bring everything together for a 3-light finale, using all three softbox shapes simultaneously to create a stunning, studio-quality portrait that maximizes each modifier’s true potential. Gavin will be joined by Chloe as his model, Sam on the chat and Freya on the super switcher, so join the conversation, get your questions answered live or just watch along and enjoy the show.
