Anthony
Co-founder, Operations & Studio Fashion
Anthony (Ant to everyone) co-founded Creativity Hub alongside Naomi. He runs operations on every event: venue logistics, set build, lighting kit, schedule, catering. If something goes right on an event day, Ant arranged it three weeks earlier. If something goes wrong, he's already fixing it.
On the floor, Ant teaches the location-fashion sessions and the glossy-magazine clean-light setups that anchor every Snapshot event. Outside of Creativity Hub, Ant spends his time as a fashion photographer, working in fast-paced, production-led environments where efficiency and output matters. That experience shapes how he builds every set, so photographers can focus entirely on getting the shot.
Jason
Lead Educator, Content
Jason joined the Hub as a regular tutor in 2019 and now leads on content and education across every event. His teaching territory is creative lighting - gels, lasers, beam effects, hard shadows — the stuff most photographers don't get to play with on their own.
You'll find Jason at every Studio Masterclass, every Gels & Lasers event, and a couple of the Showstoppers each year. He also leads on the Hub's international Escapes — currently building the Venice Carnival itinerary for February 2027.
Gavin Hoey
Featured tutor · Lighting director
One of the UK's most recognised photography educators, Gavin's YouTube channel reaches a global audience of over half a million photographers. He has been teaching lighting and storytelling for two decades, writing for Amateur Photographer and presenting at The Photography Show.
Gavin directs the lighting plan and works one-to-one with each photographer through every setup. Technical, methodical, and unfailingly generous with his time.
