We had speedlight afficionado Gavin Blue come in and talk about his work and his equipment.
Gaving has been been shooting for roughly 22 years and does mostly location based work.
Gavin used to drag around a large portable lighting kit to all of his jobs until he discovered the beauty of using several smaller speedlights to achieve the effects he was after.
Gavin has sourced all kinds of equipment that he now uses that is all extra light and portable, from having a large amount of speedlights, to cloth snoots, cutters, gels, extra compact light stands and a relatively inexpensive flash triggering system (from Impact/Flashwave)
