The Studio Build is Finally Complete! | Functionality highlights & what we'd do differently

Video Description

You've seen it in use in videos but when we set out to build a photography studio in our back garden, me being me I planned everything down to the last plug socket 😂 We technically moved in at the start of April 2022, but I haven't felt "settled" into the space until just recently, now that my walls have some artwork on them! I wanted to share some of the things we deliberated on when it came to functionality during the build itself (covered in the MTog Build Vlogs) and hopefully if you are ever thinking "I want to build my own photography studio" then this might be a helpful resource for how two oddballs in England did it... Building my own studio was daunting, stressful and educational, but after 10+ years of wishing and working towards my very own studio space, I'm so glad this dream has come true. Hopefully a fun one for this week whilst we're away at The Photography Show. Hope you're all safe and well xx 🙏 Be sure to subscribe to our channel for weekly content on all things photography 🙏 ________________________________________________________________________________________ Premium Membership The highly requested, new launched Premium Membership is now available here https://www.thattogspot.com/become-a-member/ Premium Members get everything you get now, here on YouTube plus exclusive access to the following: ❖ A private VIP Facebook Community ❖ 1 x in-depth individual monthly critique (P+) ❖ 1 x extended webinar per month (at least 1!) ❖ 1 x quarterly magazine delivered to your door ❖ 3 x free annual awards entries ❖ Monthly Q&A time with Jess ❖ Minimum of 10% off all TPS shop items ❖ Lifetime access to any enrolled courses ❖ PS Actions/LR Presets of any technique covered ❖ Bonus videos for personal & professional growth ❖ Access to scaling certifications (the BTog, STog & GTog) ❖ Membership & certification badges for marketing ________________________________________________________________________________________ Our other social channels are: ❖ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thattogspot/ ❖ Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/thattogspot/ For more information on us, what we do, and what we offer visit us at https://www.thattogspot.com Check out these: ❖ FREE Community Resources - https://www.thattogspot.com/community-resources/ ❖ Professional ONLINE one-to-ones - https://www.thattogspot.com/online-photography-one-to-ones/ ❖ ONLINE courses - https://www.thattogspot.com/online-photography-courses/ ❖ Clothing - https://www.thattogspot.com/shop/ ________________________________________________________________________________________ My Core Kit ❖ Sony A7riii - https://geni.us/A3zFah ❖ Camera Bag - https://www.thinktankphoto.com/collections/photocross-backpacks/products/photocross-15-backpack?variant=13802238541885 ❖ Camera Strap - https://geni.us/TgjAme ❖ My Mac - https://amzn.to/2TdEhGF (mine is custom but this is close) ❖ BenQ ScreenBar - https://geni.us/screenbarTPS ❖ Hard Drives - https://geni.us/gvip My Top Lenses ❖ 105 1.4 - https://geni.us/aZAAi2 ❖ 135 1.8 - https://geni.us/aA7Xu1l ❖ 24-70 2.8 - https://geni.us/9GGieI ❖ 70-200 2.8 OSS - https://geni.us/bRbB Shooting Bits ❖ Universal Lens Cap - https://geni.us/2ffmm ❖ Lens Cleaning Kit - https://geni.us/L8AT ❖ Memory Cards - https://geni.us/YE5eM ❖ White Balance Card - https://geni.us/HQZQ6 Studio Kit •Thanks to Pixapro for 10% off using 10OFFTPSJM• ❖ Studio Strobes - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-citi600-pro-ttl-battery-powered-flash/ ❖ Soft Box Pick - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-60x90cm-rectangular-easy-open-umbrella-softbox-with-4cm-grid/ ❖ Light Stands - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-300cm-air-cushioned-light-stand-with-14-and-38-spigot/ ❖ Backdrop Stands - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-super-heavy-duty-triple-telescopic-background-stand/ ❖ Sand Bags - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/essentialphoto-weight-counter-balance-sand-bag/ ❖ Boom Arm and Stand - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/pixapro-300cm-c-stand-with-50-inch-boom-arm-set-and-adjustable-legs/ ❖ Paper Backgrounds - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/category/shop-by-product/photography-backdrops/seamless-paper-backdrops/ ❖ Reflector - https://www.essentialphoto.co.uk/product/60cm-silvergold-collapsible-triangular-reflector/
