I can listen to you and look at your masterpieces for hours! Thank you so much Harry for sharing your great experiences with the world! Stay always well and motivated!

[@fredandharryborden]

Thanks a lot for supporting the channel. The comments really helps us out!

[@kennymcleish]

That ring flash portrait of Tony Blair is burned into my visual memory - I had always thought it was Rankin. Speaks to your range of photographic style!

[@fredandharryborden]

Thanks for the kind comment!

[@wearetrackclub]

Amazing storytelling! Love how you put this together. So cool to hear about these experiences 👌

[@Kevin_YouTube]

just brilliant. 👍

[@PaulVanDenton]

Not only are you a master of photography, you are a master storyteller. Love that these vignettes are committed to history

[@tomhannigan2234]

I concur- fed up of nerdy UA-cam photographers talking about edge sharpness and chromatic aberration.
A breath of fresh air

[@JanAnton]

bruuuuh... you are both very talented... I could listen to your dad stories anytime but with the sensitively chosen background music it is a pleasure... Thank you both for making these happen. I am literally moved by these.

[@fredandharryborden]

Thanks - means a lot! Really glad you enjoyed :)

[@gustavmoritz3526]

Great story! I could listen to you for hours! Thanks for the video!

[@fredandharryborden]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Another really beautifully told background story to the photograph. What I always like about you is that you really come across as genuine. Sadly, not all photographers are like you.

[@harryborden]

Very kind of you to say. Thank you.

[@jonathanosbaldiston9282]

Fascinating video. Such an amazing, behind the lens look at your work with such outstanding people - many thanks.

[@fredandharryborden]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@audioupgrades]

Thanks for another superb story, perhaps the best one so far. The black door photos represent one of Harry's greatest strengths as a photographer. He has a way of using architectural elements not only to build composition but as a sort of second character that interacts with the person being photographed. Over the years, I've often looked at one of Harry's photos and thought "How on Earth did he think of placing the person there?" Today, I know a little more thanks to these videos.

[@fredandharryborden]

Thanks a lot! Much appreciated, thanks for the lovely comment.

These vids are great, Harry.

Thanks Chris 🙏 As I said the other day, they're fun to do and it's lovely collaborating with Fred. You should do some, you're a such a good storyteller...

Thanks!

cool story.. nicely done ol mate

Glad you enjoyed it

[@fellowcitizen]

Gosh -- there are a lot of people who would like to be able to say that they shot Tony Blair.
My film recommendation is Polanski's 'Ghost Writer'.

[@harryborden]

Yes, must watch that again.

[@teacherdude]

I, too have photographed lots of prime ministers, though, to tell the truth I was not invited. They never even knew I was there, till the photos hit social media,

[@fredandharryborden]

haha!

Maybe you can share the image release you use for your woks?

the one the celebrities sing?

[@fredandharryborden]

Will speak to Harry!

[@markyork5839]

Did you keep your copyright this time round..?

[@fredandharryborden]

Yep, Harry did. They didn't even try to get Harry to sign it away!

[@jamesburne3893]

Documenting a photoshoot with someone as unpopular as Blair for views. Good grief.

[@harryborden]

You should try watching the video. It might not be what you think? It's 4 shoots over more than a decade. Maybe embrace complexity? 🙏

[@jamesburne3893]

It’s a bit rich to suggest I have to embrace certain things in order to sit through a video with a war criminal. Surely you would’ve known this would have raised a few issues.?
Maybe scrape the barrel a bit more next time you are looking for content.

[@fredandharryborden]

@@jamesburne3893 Do you only watch things which are sunshine and rainbows?
Ps. the barrel is full to the brim!

[@jamesburne3893]

@@fredandharryborden No not at all but I think it was worth calling you out for attempting to create revenue from someone who was responsible for so many deaths. I’m not even political. Good luck with the others.

@@fredandharryborden So because life isn’t a bed of roses we’ll let the genocides continue then Harry. 👍😎
