High Key Hybrid Portraits with 2 LED Lights | Take and Make Great Photography with Gavin Hoey

In a world where video content is growing at an ever-increasing rate, being able to create stills and video from the same session, both with the same look, is a hybrid skill that’s worth exploring. Gavin Hoey shows how to create a high-key hybrid portrait setup in a small home studio using just two LED lights, some white fabric, and a touch of creativity. First, Gavin creates a soft, shadowless lighting look that’s perfect for portraits, then he seamlessly transitions into video, maintaining the look and camera settings consistency for both. A simple fan adds movement to his model's hair, which looks great in still images and is even more impressive when filming at 60fps for slow-motion footage that matches the final photos perfectly. Whether you’re photographing portraits, creating video content, or just want to get more from your lighting, Gavin’s hybrid workflow keeps things simple without compromising on quality. Gavin Hoey is a freelance photographer, writer, and trainer specializing in all aspects of photography. His work is regularly featured in photography magazines, website,s and videos. Gavin has a real passion for sharing his photography and Photoshop knowledge. In 2008, he started recording and uploading video tutorials to YouTube.
