Your film quality and editing is superior to so many other vloggers out there. Most videos out there seem very...gray in palette, very flat and crumbly with no sense of flow and atmosphere (or else they're like some Adderall-fuelled music video, saturated yet empty). I enjoy your strong aesthetic vision, beautiful capturing of atmosphere and gorgeous crystal clear colour and sound. Your gear must be expensive but you're patently exploring, experimenting and working really competently with it. Gorgeous videos. I'm thinking Ralph's the one responsible for the stunning quality of the visuals? Team effort, but just wanted to give some props to the technical wizard behind these beautiful videos. Much appreciated! Love the lingering shots, the detail of price tags and other aspects of daily exploring which so many other vloggers completely overlook in their trend-happy, generic videos.
Thank you so much for your kind comment ❤️ While we both split video footage duties, the beautiful editing credit rightfully goes to my beautiful wife Sam. Her keen eye for clipping and stitching together a video is second to none, with my music scoring only tying it up in the end. Again, thank you for making our day. We're returning to Japan this spring so that should be another fun video for all of us to enjoy 🌸
@@RalphSam Brilliant! I look forward to more crystal clear, richly atmospheric footage to keep me inspired enough to continue working overtime and not spending my savings before my own trip back later this year. Thanks guys!!
You both seem like a chill couple and awesome to travel with! Thanks for taking us along 🫶🏻
Super appreciate that 🥰 Thanks for watching and happy holidays 🎄
本当に素敵なカップル💕 素敵なビデオ💕 また来てください🇯🇵
ご清覧ありがとうございました！九州から帰ってきたところです。近いうちに東京に行きたいです。😊🤍
I love your vlog 💕💕💕 When I was a student at Tokyo University of the Arts about 30 years ago, Ginza was an exciting city with hundreds of contemporary art galleries, a mix of luxury brand boutiques and art galleries. Today, there are only a few art galleries in Ginza.
As you may already know, the Okuno Building (Ginza 1-9-8) is photogenic and wonderful.
Futaba Zushi (4-10-13 Ginza) is a classic Edo-period style sushi restaurant (no photography allowed inside), loved by Kabuki actors, and recommended for lunchtime.🍣🍵
Absolutely love your recommendations. Makes us excited to visit and explore Ginza again one day. It must have been wonderful to spend time there as a student. Thank you for sharing. 💖 💖💖
Firstly: your videos deserve at least 1M views.
Secondly: im saving all of your food spots for my Tokyo trip. Thank you! ❤
Wow your comment made our day! Thank you 🍶🌸🍣🍡
Thank you for coming over to Japan! It’s always fun to see my country from other perspective ;) hehe またきてね〜🌼
Arigato! 🤍 Our trips to Japan are some of our favorites. We can't wait to return 🙏
Love watching your videos so much ❤
Means a lot to us! Thanks so much ❤️
Awesome video! Very helpful, with lots of good places to check out that will be close to our hotel! Thank you!
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy exploring Ginza 🤍
love you video style, so relaxing
Thanks so much! Relaxing is what we aim for ❤️
Love your videos! I think the dude you took a photo of at 9:01 is a famous Sumo wrestler Tochinoshin
Woaaaah had no idea! We were wondering who they were, they had such a cool look to them. Thanks for letting us know. Makes the encounter even more special 💪
Love your haul! 😍 The 1 carat definitely! 😉😉
Thank you for watching! 😊
so enjoyed your take on Ginza! Looking to go in the near future.
Thanks for watching! Ginza was cool ✨️
Been really enjoying your Tokyo videos! We have similar interests so its been fun to watch. I'm going back to Japan again in a couple months and can't wait. It's been too long.
We're actually planning a return next year! Enjoy your Tokyo trip, and thanks for watching 🌸🍣🍶
Awesome visuals! Great vlog R&S :)

New subscriber here! Love your vlogss
Yay thanks for being here! ✨️
Спасибо за прекрасное видео...из Казахстана🫰👋
Amazing! We'd love to go to Kazakhstan someday 🇰🇿
@@RalphSam ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like watchin' your videos, how to enjoy your own style in Japan, not following other people to famous places where you have to queue for 1 or 2 hours to eat at the restaurant. salute 👏
We appreciate this so much! Definitely the spirit of how we like to travel. Thank you for watching 🤍
Instantly fell with your channel so I auto-subscribed in the middle of watching, haha. Can you share where you stayed at? I missed it yata haha. Thank you for taking us with you 🎉😊
Sure, the hotel is BMJ Shinjuku Okubo 😊 And thank you so much for subbing 🤍 More Tokyo videos otw
And Coffee Roasters was my local when I lived in Kumamoto. Didn't know they expanded to Tokyo!
How cool! We're considering Kumamoto when we visit Kyushu next year. Would you recommend a stop over? 😊
Kurokawa Onsen has some nice outdoor baths by a river which is pretty magical. Mt Aso is pretty unique too. I would say you need a car if you want to get the most out of Kumamoto.@@RalphSam
I absolutely love your videos. I’ve been binging all night since I found you. Do you mind if I ask what film camera and film you use for your pics at @2:59 ? Thank you and keep up the awesome work
Thank you so much! Ralph shot this with an Olympus mju ii loaded with Cinestill 800 film 📷
Hii!! New subscriber here 💕 fell in love with your vlogs. May I know what filter do you use on your vlogs? It’s so aesthetic and calming. Thank you 🌸✨
Thank you so much for subscribing! We actually don't use any filter or color grading for our videos 😊
been watching your videos for the past weeks, looking forward to your new travel plans yay
do you guys happen to have any recommendations for a newbie film camera user ? i've been searching about it but still confused, thank you so much :-)
Thank you! I like Olympus mju ii the best. It's got a nice prime fixed lens and an aperture of 2.8 to get enough light for the film :)
Thanks for the video. The washing machine is helpful, which hotel did you stay in Ginza?
this hotel was actually in nakano, but we took a train to ginza. 😊 it's called lafitte tokyo
@@RalphSam thanks! which month were you guys for a week in Tokyo? Doesnt seem to be in Winter
this was in october, during fall 😊
Soooo impressed by your framing and editing and the cool things you showed us 😍✌🏽 May I ask how you guys do your color correction ? do you use a LUT ? id love to have the same on my videos that i’ll be doing in Tokyo
Much love ❤
Thank you so much for saying that! Honestly this is straight from our Samsung phones haha. We don't color grade our videos, but flattered people seem to think so. 😊
Merry Christmas po 🎄🎁❤
Merry Christmas! 💚🎄💚
sam my girl! where is your amazon wishlist lol we need to get you a handheld tripod immediately!!! (just recently subbed and i loveeeeeeeeeee your content!) enjoy japan!
Hahaha this legit made me laugh 😂 We've been thinking of getting one too. Thank you so much for subbing and happy holidays 💚💚💚
🤭🫶🏽
What film camera are you guys using for the actual photos? I love it!
Nice of you to notice the film! I use a Contax G2 and an Olympus mju ii 📸
Hey! Loved the video as I am just preparing a day in Ginza! Can you recommend stores for 35mm film? Thanks!
Thanks! In Ginza we like Katsumido and Sankyo. We also personally like GT Camera in Ebisu the most. Have fun!
@@RalphSam thank you 😍
i love your vlogs! may i know where did ralph buy his strap for his film camera? 😄
Sure! Camera strap is from Fotoclub BKK in Bangkok. Thanks for watching 😊
Great video. Tori Gin is pronounced ‘gin’ as in Ginza as it’s ‘ki’ with a chon chon 😊
Great tip! Thank you 😊
I really like the scarf🥹
thank you!! 🌼🌸🌺
@8:30 ... this is Wako department store, it is first tier but Mitsukoshi across the street is lower level ... very nearby is Ginza Motoki (where I buy so much of my clothing) ... hmmm ... I think you should have tried Kimuraya bakery, it is really yummy ... and I buy lots of stationary from Itoya ... hahaha! Ginza gets utterly destroyed in the newest Godzilla movie ! ...there is a tiny kimono store in this neighborhood which serves the very high end bar hostesses here, I went because my girlfriend needed to rent a kimono last month.
Thanks for all the lovely helpful tips! Will try the bakery and Aomori seafood next time 🥰
As always…. Amazing video ….. very chilling to watch….
I use to think that Ginza is for few hours only ….
But now I can see , that for people who love to chill and shop and enjoy the day ….. Ginza can be a whole day destination.
Gotta tweak my itinerary again guys 😅.
Thanks for writing that! There's something for everyone in Ginza. Hope you have an amazing trip!
Great Video Guys!
Do you edit them yourself?
Thanks! Yes we edit all our videos 👍🏻
@@RalphSam That's Great. I'm a video editor and will help you edit them for you. So you can save your time as well.I can share my portfolio too.Let me know we can connect (:
hey! im trying to get into photography and so i was wondering what camera you guys use? or a specific lens? also, is there a camera you would recommend for documenting trips? thanks! 🩷
hi there! when we travel we usually bring our film cameras, a contax and an olympus mju ii. those are the ones we brought on this japan trip 😊
Holy 💩 you actually saw Tochinoshin 😮
Only realized after reading the comments! 😮
What phone do u use? The recording quality is nice
Thank you! We shoot with our Samsung Galaxy phones 😊
You deserve each other 🫶
so sweet 🤍 thank you 😊
HI，just wondering is the whole vlog shot by your samsung phone? thank you! ❤
Yup! We shoot all our videos with our Samsung S phones 😊
How do you transport your film through airport security? Do you let it go through the scanner or do you have security hand check?
Yes I just put all the rolls unboxed in a ziplock and ask for hand check after immigration 👍🏽
Hi, just wondering where you stayed please? Thanks!
Laffitte Tokyo. We recommend it 👍🏽
what type of camera are you using
Contax film camera mostly
enjoyed the video... just had a question re: tax refund-- do you have to bring your passport to get it? and do they always put tax on everything and then you have to go and then you get the tax back later (like in cash?). confused how that works? thank you!!
Hii there! Yes, you need to bring your passport with you to get the tax refund. Whenever you purchase something worth ¥5000 and above, you are qualified to get the tax amount back in cash. Usually there is a tax refund counter. Unlike other countries where you get the tax refund at the airport. Hope that helps!
@@RalphSam thank you for the info!!!
เย้ๆ คนแรก
Ok that engraved lipstick!!! Did you have to pay extra for that?
Nope, it's free! 💄❤️
