To the point, informative and suave… Keep it up 👍
Hi Jeff,
I have a question about C-stands. I’m from Portugal and in here is hard to buy the Avenger A2030D 40-Inch. However I found the AVENGER C-STAND 33 (product ID: A2033LKIT) in a local store. Can you tell me if this could be a good alternative for the same studio space and lights you show?
Keep it going with your videos. They really worth it!
Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the inspiration to create my own limited space studio in Los Angeles.
Thanks for sharing your work and learnings with us! what do you use for your backdrop?
great video also
i was trying to figure out who you remind me of for the longest time but i think its jared letto
Jeff what's the background song ?
Subscribed today. This is awesome and inspirational to those of us who don't have (or can't afford) room. Not to mention your one light setups.
I have a similar setup here in Finland. We have a (GULP) 7-month winter, and shooting in Arctic weather is no fav to many!
I was looking for autopole stands for my backgrounds .. but from this informative video I saw that what it seems like an autopole with legs that will transform it to a regular and portable background stands .. if this is the case may I know where to find it .. it’s gonna be super helpful for my needs .. thanks
Jeff,
Thank you for the quick response & being such a valuable resource
Jeff, thanks for the video. Great stuff! Can you add a link to the backdrop crossbar you use? Thanks so much
Good video, but the music is distracting.
Nice video !!!
Where do you keep your lights and modifiers, mate? 🙂
Great vid Jeff ! Really looking forward to seeing a strobe lighting setup in this space, My space is comparable and I dont have window light.
That's making the most of your space!
Great inspiration!
Good video. 🙂
Very clever idea, i have also my sleepingroom turnt in tho my first photostudio. It is 4,50m Long, 2,60m wide and 2,25m high. You can shoot Portraits very easy and it has two Windows, behinh the backround and on the right side. You dont have to start perfectly.
Grit, wit and talent…that's what this man shows that you need…
Hi Jeff. This is so timely for me as well! My roommate will move out soon, and I have the opportunity to use his old room as a studio. Roughly 10×12. I've never had a studio before, and I'm more of a natural light photographer so far. The thing is, I can't currently afford to pay for that room (doubling the rent). So my question to you here or perhaps for a future video is, What is the best way to share a small studio with another photographer? I'm thinking splitting the rent with a dedicated photographer. Others have told me rent per hour for any photographer, but I'm not sure. Thoughts?
Nice… I wanna convert my spare room into a studio/ guest room. I have so much gear EXCEPT the C-Stand. Thanks for some direction/ inspo
I love you, you got the hight I don't have that I have only 7.5 from floor to ceiling and it a close 7.5 because it's a old garage it has a slop I guess they were thinking it was going to snow in California 1927 when it was builded. So my problem is if I have a tall guy I have to always shoot then sitting down. Unless you know another way I would sure like to know. And as you are wearing my Brother Muhammad Ali shirt ! Tell me a fix please. Your last three video have been on point for me.
Awesome!!!
Wow! Your such a bad ass. I really didn't think your the type to have 2 full sleeves. 😂. Wow. Your super dynamic as a person.
It's hard to describe how useful and timely this video is. Thanks yet again Jeff!
Jeff I love you. This is the Video I been looking for ages. Thank you love to see how you work in the space.
This is great man, I just built my small studio space in my apartment, works amazingly
I have Studio in Queens…studio apartment that is. 😂
