      Make a video on the best sites to sell photography works based on your experience, how you make a living as a professional. I can't wait. Lol. Thank you ✨

      Pat, have read Toyota Kata (kata meaning "routine")? It is a book based on process based business success.
      You might also value Theory of Constraints (The Goal is the extended story version of the concepts). Toyota Kata provides the how methodology, but Theory of constraints provides the what that needs the current focus.
      The principles can be applied to pretty much any facet of life, be it business or personal.

      Vids that break down parts of these 4 habits and specifics on a part of your 5 areas. Am so interested in your approach because it’s not purely technical. Meaning is important.

    I appreciate that this is one of the few photography channels that doesn't go at a million miles an hour. Thank you for speaking slower and clearly! Most channels seem to think that high words per minute is effective...it's hard to follow and feels like an auction!

You have a new fan.

    17:00 - I love it. Anime is definitely underrated as a method for storytelling. Taking that stylistic approach to photography is something I hadn't even thought about. Very awesome.
    Also - 17:18 totally reminds me of an Ilya Kuvshinov style drawing. LOVE IT.

  • @alohaleslie9407
    @alohaleslie9407 3 роки тому +11

    Straight forward advice that’s both highly applicable to anyone holding a camera, and measurable.
    If you only choose one habit from this list your photography will improve.
    Follow all four and your photos will begin to take on a life of their own 🥳
    Great video 🙌

  • @rei7417

    I like the structure you are giving to learning photography. It organizes the vast information available throughout the internet, into specific areas. That is really helpful for someone that has no idea what is available for learning and needs some guidelines without getting overwhelmed

  • @TheSolitaryEclectic
    @TheSolitaryEclectic 2 роки тому +2

    This video was great, especially because I took my camera with me today when I went out with a friend and took almost exactly 27 pictures (28). I felt like it was the perfect amount, and then I saw this video. Synchronicity. I hope to keep up with doing that daily for the next year. 🙏🏽💖

    Ich schreibe in Deutsch, weil ich mich in dieser Sprache am besten ausdruecken kann.
    Das bedeutendste was ich in 50 Jahren Fotografie gelernt habe und schlussendlich sehr bereue, ist das ich mich habe beeinflussen lassen von dem was andere denken, was andere sehen und was andere sagen. Ich habe mich beeinflussen lassen von allerlei sogenannten Regeln der Fotografie. Hierdurch habe ich mein eigenes pures und kindliches Auge beinahe verloren und damit die Kraft meines eingenen Sehens. Dieses innerliche Auge in jedem von uns ist so spezifisch wie das aeussere Ausehen eines jeden Menschen. Ich will damit sagen, um deine wirklich eigene Sicht in ein Foto zu bringen, brauchst du dieses Auge. Das hat uns auch schon Henri Cartier Bresson gesagt. Ich hatte dies zwar vor 15 Jahren schon verstanden, aber in meiner Neugier und dem immer mehr lernen wollen, ganz ausser acht gelassen. Bis ich vor 5 Jahren bemerkte, es ist nicht mehr viel von diesem meinem eigenen innerlichem Auge uebrig. So passiert das in einer uebervollen Welt von Informationen und Meinungen. Seitdem versuche ich dieses 'Auge' wieder zu heilen, indem ich mich der Meinung anderer entziehe. In jedem Foto trachte ich mein pures kindliches Ich einzubringen ohne allerlei Regeln. Mit 64 Jahren vielleicht etwas spaet, aber es hat mir die Faszination fuer die Fotografie, die ich seit meiner fruehen Kindheit emfpinde, wieder zurueckgegeben. Fotografie ist fuer mich kein Handwerk mehr, sondern die Liebe zum Leben.
    Aber natuerlich ist der Weg eines jeden Fotografen anders....und auch das Ziel....

    I go out most days and take nature photography. Typically take 200 or 300 shots every day but end up deleting 90% and I only keep the good ones. I then post 5 to 10 photos to friends and family. Over the past year I can see dramatic improvement.

After 2yrs of pandemic my life flow changed a lot, and what keeps on coming back is my desire to create, capture and cherish. So I borrowed a dslr a few months ago and in May bought myself a Mother's day gift haha. The Canon RP is going with me where ever I go, and this video is making me eager to practice with purpose.

    Great video, thanks. Howeveer, I think there's something missing from your 5 skills that a lot of photographers struggle with - editing / making selects. I feel it's incredibly important for developing one's ability to tell a story well and goes well beyond the individual strong image.

I can't thank you enough for your really straightforward discussion and VERY helpful thoughts and opinions about the photographic/creative process. The color calibration video kinda blew my mind and forced me to reconsider... well basically my entire editing process. Not sure where it will land but I can't thank you enough for opening my eyes just a bit more.
    Love this channel, thanks for putting it and yourself out there.

    I definitely need to start something similar to the 27 a day. Lack of discipline and constant skill-building is something that has kept me at amateur level in all of my endeavours.
    I think this has been the most useful advice I've recently received regarding furthering my photography skills.
    And for a second, I thought 27 was chosen because it's close to the 36 shots of a roll of 35mm film. 😅
    Either way, great advice

I love your insight, the scope of your approach, and the universal applicableness any photographer could adopt with these 4 habits. Plus, you're a phenomenal teacher and endearing to watch.
