Long before you to the fun part of portrait photography (creating stunning images while working with amazing models in unique locations) you need to answer two vital questions…
What kit is ACTUALLY required, and
How do I get it to location?
In this live stream I’ll look at both questions and explain why I have a simple philosophy: If I can’t pull it along in my little red cart, it’s probably not going to make it out of the studio. So what kit am I’m packing today?
Join the conversation, steer the session or just sit back, enjoy the show. As always I’ll be joined by Sam on the comments, Freya on our NEW Obsbot Talent switcher / encoder and Polly as my “model”.

FYI on the transmitters. I had the Flashpoint R2 Pro Mark II, the one with rows of buttons on both sides. It misfired 1 in 10 shots no matter what I did. I then purchased the Flashpoint R2 XPro II, the newer version with the single row of buttons on the left side. It works great and almost never misfires. Unforfunately, even the new "Nano" transmitters do not share information with the Seconic L858. It is only a one way relationship.
Funny everything wireless socks, but I don't think I have ever seen you use a wired flash😂🤣😂🤣
Hello Hoey's thanks for sharing.
Great
Good to see you back Gavin. Did you get a chance to work with the Brooklyn reflector while in NYC? I've heard it does wonders when shooting portraits.
In coastal areas of Australia, we use these wagons to transport Kids, Dogs and Esky. 🐯
Great video! Your garden looks lovely! 🇨🇦
photography has brought so much life into my life, and thats a large part due to you guys. Thank you!
Thanks Gavin
Getting my first festival truck delivered tomorrow with waterproof cover for protection. I have to say that this video is so apt in helping me to know what to put in it or not for outdoor portraits. Amazing stuff!!
Morning from future Australia
Gavin, upgrade the transmitter to the Godox X3 pro its fantastic, the battery lasted 6 months on a single charge, lovely big touch screen, well worth the upgrade.
Hi Gavin can you tell me the name of your laptop tray on light stand and also possibly where you got it from, Thanks Mark from down under AU
When you put the cart in your car do you collapse it or put it in fully loaded?
I got,the big wheel wagon for going thru sand and dirty and the wagon is the best buy for location shooter. How many sandbag do you normal take with you? And how often do use them on location.
Thank you very much ✌️
Regarding ND filters any tips for photographing solar eclipses?
Sam voice is hard to hear but ok when the question it on screen. Miss live as news was on tv 🙂 seen you from USA as well
Good morning from Carlsbad ca From Aldo Ledesma
I use the Godox X2T transmitter as you can read it without moving your eye too far away from the viewfinder
