Gavin Hoey
Gavin Hoey is a freelance photographer, writer and trainer of all things photographic. His work is regularly featured in photography magazines, websites 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. These quickly gained a large following and to date his videos have been viewed over 20 million times.
In 2010 Gavin was the winner of Adobe’s “Next Photoshop Evangelist” competition and since then he has given training demonstrations in Photoshop, Lightroom and Photoshop Elements in the UK, Europe and the US.
In 2012 Gavin joined forces with Adorama as a presenter on Adorama TV, where he inspires and teaches photographers from around the world in the art of photography and post processing.
Sometimes the best ways to make your photos stand out is by altering reality from the everyday into the unexpected and that’s exactly what Gavin Hoey does with this anti-gravity portrait shoot. No special sets or magic props are required, just a little bit of sideways thinking.
As Gavin only had single light bulb, it’s not surprising that there is some Photoshop work required for the final shot. What you may find surprising is just how quickly it can be done.
