Softbox Truths And Traps | LIVE with Gavin Hoey

The softbox is an essential part of any portrait photographer’s toolbox and there’s almost no end to the range of sizes and shapes you can choose from. From a stripbox to octabox, there’s a softbox design for almost every situation but with so much choice comes lots of misunderstandings.

In this live-streamed photo session, Gavin Hoey tries to unravel some of the more common misconceptions about softboxes. He’ll explore popular softbox preconceptions about which softboxes should and should not be used in certain circumstances. Some are true, others are traps!

As always, Gavin will squeeze as many real-world hints tips, and lighting tricks in an hour as possible. Join the conversation, get your questions answered live, and help steer the session… or watch along and discover if you are a softbox saint or sinner!
