What lens both of you using ?
WOW! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE VIDEO -IT WAS FUN AND EXCITING!! PIERRE LAMBERT HANDS DOWN WON THREE CHALLENGE. ONE THING I DIDN'T LIKE ABOUT THE OTHER PHOTOGRAPHER, WAS WHEN HE SPLIT UP PEOPLE, HE KEPT A PIECE OF THE OTHER PERSON'S ARM IN THE SHOT!! HE TOOK GREAT PHOTOS OF WHAT HE GOT...BUT YOURS WERE MORE POWERFUL!
8:34
Man almost every one is perfect 😭😭
I found the photo of the woman behind the glass the best
Thanks Tobi!
Agree
yes, agree
Agreeeeeeee
❤️❤️ love that shot
You guys should carry business cards on you and hand them out to people after the picture it would make your life so much easier! no?
I just read this after suggesting the same thing. : )
I’ve just suggested it too and then red the comments lol
CrazyCatLady great minds think alike 😂
Edon Has, great idea!
Lol I just commented the same thing and deleted it after reading yours
Stranger: " I look like shit though"
Jerome: "Perfect"
😂😂 so nice
Which part.? Haha
@@karljuan8908 11:19
Lmao I came straight to the comments after that one😂
Bruh😂😂
15:14 the way he switched his facial expression from smiling😀 to 😐
When people do that, it's like they were faking the smile the whole time, and their frown shows their real emotions.
@@cryora Not necessarily... I mean, sure, he may have faked his smile, but who knows? It’s fine as long as it’s not “the cringe” smile 😬😭But don’t assume every frown means that a person is in a bad mood. Some folks will naturally appear as if they’re frowning (e.g., angry or sad). Hell, my naturally resting face looks like I’m mean or ‘unfriendly’ to strangers, but that’s just how my face naturally sits. & on top of that, I’m a deep thinker, so it’s slightly intensified whenever I’m having a deep thought. So, it’s annoying as hell when a total stranger make assumptions about how you feel (facial expressions are unreliable when it comes to accurately interpreting how folks truly feel).
But he have a beautiful smile

3:06 that one is amazing
💯💯
Indeed. Totally agree here. This picture has everything.
Yeah i think it’s one of the best
🔥💯
yesss!
Can’t believe how many people say „yes“. My first guess - if I try this in Germany I get 100 No’s - 50 slaps in my face - and maybe one „yes“. Maybe I try this one day
Haha unmöglich in Deutschland.. da wirst du noch blöd angeguckt und die Polizei wird gerufen.. 😂
Genau das denke ich mir auch. ^^
Marcus Schenk Das ist im Übrigen kein deutsches Privileg. Ich wohne in Paris und da würden die meisten Leute einfach aggressiv werden.
derVlogdahalt wenn ich so nett gefragt werden würde wie es pierre im Video macht würde ich auch ja sagen. Bei ungefragten Bildern wäre ich auch nicht amüsiert
Hey, where are you based in Germany? Maybe we can start a challenge here in Germany as well. 😀
As someone who loves photography but has always had problems talking with strangers, this was kind of inspirational. Thanks for doing the video, it looked so much fun.
i know this comment is two years old but i think if you have a friend while doing this just following you around and if u act somewhat excited and enthusiastic you will have an easier time convincing people to shoot, it also probably depends on the weather, time of day, month, how cold or hot it is, how old they are, what country your in and what city. I know nothing about photography however and just watch these videos for fun
@@mac8869 you are actually completely right
I love how Pierre always compliments his subjects when getting shots of them. Seriously an inspiration I wish I could be talented as you sir in street photography
the best portrait
the girls behind the window of Pierre
ah thanks!!
Which one
yes she is beautiful, I want to see her photos again
12:13 She radiates positivity and warmth
fr and her poses we’re perfect she knew what she was doing 🔥
her voice is so calming
I notice Lambert usually commits on people's accessories first then explains what he is doing. Example " excuse me that ['item'] looks great on you, I'm doing a challenge etc", chances of him grabbing a photo is highly likely.
Yes, and also he never starts with „sorry“.
it's important to learn psychology things before interact with stranger
12:09 her voice😍 soo smooth and sweet
This is SO OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE. I love it.
Someone else mentioned this as well, but I think the approach had a lot to do with Pierre’s success. He seemed more confident and started the conversation with a compliment where Jerome started by apologizing. No matter what, it still takes a lot of guts to do that. Kudos to both of you and keep those videos coming!
7:19 That lady behind glass really the best one! Captivating!
The difference was Pierre's energy and confidence
Pierre: Hi, how are you..
Lady with two dogs : #($(@($@(@($
Pierre: Okay no worries
Haha she missed out 😛😛😛
@@Pierretlambert lol😂
😂😂😂
@@Pierretlambert The images were amazing to be honest! :) Mad props!
Are those pictures straight out of camera or edited?
@@Pierretlambert bro please are the pictures edited?
YOU MADE ME HAPPY GUYS THANK YOU ❤
Pierre: Hi, how are you..
Lady with two dogs : #($(@($@(@($
Pierre: Okay no worries
How
@@saraeid3141 u copied that
Same🤗
The one thing that amaze me more than the number of "yes" is how amazing each shot looks for the little amount of time u can give on each Oo Mind Blown , photography is definitely an art
8:26 OMG! Who is that man? Such a gentleman, and polite.
Yeah loved his picture
Jerome, don't say "Sorry" as an intro. Just ask if you can take their photo with a smile on your face, and laugh in your voice.
You will get more Yes's that way, and faster too!
Even just miming "I want to take your photo" works as well, in my limited experience. I am an introvert, so do find it hard to ask often, so, sometimes I ask, other times, I mime the ask. It seems to work well. Plus having a smile on my face puts the subject at ease, even though smiling for me, is not a natural state.
Take from this what you will, and I hope it helps.
Thanks!
As an introvert, I agree! :)
this is real experience i'll take it :)
yes fellow introvert
Canadians often start their intros and questions with “Sorry”. I should know. I’m Canadian 🇨🇦😁
My 2 Favorites shoots!
1 - Pierre: Girl at the Caffe
2 - Jerome: The guy sitting at the fountain.
Well done my friends! 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks Nestor! See you soon!!
Exactly. The girl at the cafe is outstanding.
That Asian girl at the coffee just won my heart ♥
the girl in cafe is amazing. the guy in the fountain was ready. 😀❤️
the guy at 2:13 looked lyk a billionaire who just told you “I COULD BUY YOU”
TRUUUE XD
His girl looks like a bit of Jennifer Aniston.
7:40 I don’t think my insurance covers this😂
big compliment to everyone involved. I was particularly impressed by the ease, the openness and friendliness of the people in NY. It’s one more reason to visit NY on a time. Awesome video ! Love it a lot ! Greetings from Germany !
You should come to Iran though 😊
3:06 daam! that looks DOPE!!!
I just love how every single one is so photogenic
Every single photo is a absolute banger! I love this guys work.
What I learned most from this is that some people are naturally more photogenic than others. Great video!
"Me as a Swedish takes a photo of a stranger on the street"
Me: shows the picture to the stranger
Stranger: what lense do you have?
Me: Using a camera that i borrowed from the school -oh just a Nikon 18-55mm
Stranger: well i have a 9mm
me: 9mm...? ohh "surprised pikachu"
hahahah
I literally bought a Nikon D3500 with an 18-55mm lens and I have no other lenses. I'm borrowing my school's 70-300mm lens rn 😂
@@supertwitchy8048 zoom all the way in for the BOKEHHHHH 😂
@@maxx_vdv4960 😂😂😂
@@supertwitchy8048 really works tho. I can get great bokeh with my 200mm at F5.6
7:19 through the window was my favourite!
16:56 I really like this picture. The contrast between the yellow drink and the black outfit looks amazing
7:20 that pic was Lit♥️🔥 🔥
Looks like you.👍
Praising people for how they look / wear was a good call, well done guys
Thanks!! Yeah definitely helps
7:18 was the best one for sure!
Nobody:
The GoPro: 2fps. Take it or leave it
I still feel so uncomfortable to pull out my camera in places where there's a lot of people..did you ever had this feeling?how did you went over it?
BDABASS I had this too it was really difficult but when I did it one time it was much easier to do it again!! So just try it👍
BDABASS I make sure people see my camera before I even approach them. Pulling a camera out from the back seems like a uncomfortable situation. I average about 95% yeses and I always think people who say no.
Lol as a begginer I can say i've had it, but just try places with less people, take it out and just don't think about it, just think about your photos, fuck everyone and enjoy your shots, because you are amazing.
bruh people do worse in public you'll be alright pulling a camera and shooting - just be careful what you are focusing on lol thats the tricky part
The trick is to target weak and old people so they can never be quick enough to chase you.
I had a constant smile on my face for straight 18:09 minutes. Thanks for that, that was inspirational
are you still smiling ?
Are you?
that dog's walk at 5:34 😂
the lil trot
Its amazing how he took only one shot (framing) and still managed to take very decent looking portraits. Thats skill and experience right there boys!
Nice! What I take from this is that the approach you take when asking is what makes the difference, the first guy seems very experienced in doing this and thus had the best approach by complimenting people and being quicker with his words which made him more inviting.. the second although good, was more formal and reserved which is why I think people were more hesitant... also, like someone suggested, I would carry around business cards, it would make you look more professional and serious and not like you are just trying to get photos of people for free (I know you guys go back to these people afterwards but some of them kept on miving), don't mean this in a bad way, I just felt that if someone took a picture of me, I would want the picture and would also be wondering what's going to happen to it or what it would be used for. but really learned a few good tips on how to look more inviting to people. Thank you guys.
1:48 You missed a 'golden ' opportunity to do the dog.
It's nice to see so many natural, happy smiling faces.
There's so much to be learned about approaching somebody for something lol.
All of us video bloggers have to get acquainted with that attribute
This proves that it's easier for people like Pierre with extroverted characters to face strangers and make them feel positive about their requests
he praises them first, before asking, thats nice
2:13 this guy is look lit 👌🔥🔥🔥🔥
Also you’ve restored my faith in humans people where I live seem so hard to approach but people overseas always so much easier for me to approach
Pierre I've just been following you for a couple of weeks, and I gotta say man, you are so good with people. It's just so much fun to see you interact with people and how they respond. I think I get to learn a lot just by watching your videos. Thanks so much for putting out this kind of content! Cheers!
P.S. love Jerome's work as well! :)
omg i love everything about this. the way he gassed people up. How fast so many people said yes. How great every single photo came out. i was smiling the whole time! what a way to give people compliments, make them smile, and give them a free portrait
Wow. So heartwarming. Thank you, Pierre. And thanks to all the people who went along with your challenge. 🙏
"This tastes like victory..." 😂
That's actually funny, I was shooting strangers in the moment when the video came out.
Thanks for all those tipps they helped me and my Streetfotos a lot!
Keep on the great work!!!😁
Haha amazing!! Enjoyyy
*4:53** just a normal Minecraft villager roming around* (BG)
I couldn't tell if he was just amazingly chilled out or possibly super stoned.
Nice! I have a smile on my face all the time I'm watching you taking pictures of strangers! Great job!
2:38 he was a good poser!🔥
7:19 bet if it was me on the other side he’d be awfully shocked he took a photo of a potato 🥔
Jealous
If you're into landscape then checkout my ig @tan_d_may
Love the channel. Not sure why but your crowd work just makes me smile.
Your enthousiasm from both is very addictive! Great video guys!
Pierre: Can take a photo of you.
Stranger: Nope.
Pierre: Okay, no worries
Pierre thoughts: But are so in my UA-cam video 😏
The girl at 12:10 is totally spontaneous. What a cool person :D. I'm really astonishing by the speed of acceptation of everyone in this video.
He have a great connection between him and his camera. His photos are really stunning and eye catching. Great job!
UA-cam recommended this video & I totally enjoyed it. You guys are awesome. Loved your quick clicks too.
Have faith in yourself, Jerome! You're a talented as hell photographer and I'm so glad you have a friend like Pierre to be your partner!
I love the skateboarder shots and thought they would be my favourite but then Jerome took that first portrait shot of the guy 🔥🔥
Thank you for inspiring me to challenge myself and ask people if I can take their picture. I find it scary but watching this is a great example of how it’s done. Amazing job guys!
7:19 shot is insanely amazing !!
12:09 - that girl was in to you man! I think I’ve just learned how to pick up chicks with my camera 😂
Phil Adams she is cute tho, her voice so sexy lol
Wish my gf has that Voice
Awww..
She strikes me as well traveled, because she was just ready to go.
15:13 haha that transition
It's a great exercise to master self confidence. Loved the video. Hugs from Cannes.
idk why but I felt kinda happy watching this and makes me wanna do something that I've never done before.
btw those are really great photos seriously
You guys should give out cards to every1, so It would be easier for all of the strangers to find this awesome youtube channel
I felt those compliments and they weren't even directed towards me. You're such a pro brotha ❤️
7:20 bro it’s awesome 😍
i just discovered your channel, i'm loving it!
Asian people are great at modelling for few seconds!
Love the one behind the glass and Jerome's photo where he only had 25 seconds left!
EDIT: Also the two, couples? Sitting (Pierre's photo)!!
Salut Pierre
Thank you for this video this is exactly what I was wondering! I'm too shy to ask strangers but maybe this video will help me :) Continue comme ça tes vidéos sont top, j'adore :p
Salut! Yes I'm sure it will! :)
Just what I needed! My photography professor wanted me to take pictures of 15 strangers for an assignment. Now I know how to do it!
Ballsy as hell. & some fantastic portraits for your efforts. Idk if I could do it. Hats off to the both of you! Respect 🙏
What lenses do you use in this challenge?! I noticed a sigma mc-11?
50mm f1.8 stm canon
When
12:12 very spontaneous spirit & a great sport...
I am envious of your courage to approach people. Smiled the whole time :)
Awesome dude, pure spirite... you keep doing this and marvelous things will come to you
Your street challenges are a lot of fun to watch. Question: How do you handle giving your subjects access to their photos?
Thanks,
The girl drinking from that cup was awesome as well, her eyes were insane!
agree !
The ability to get them all in focus is amazing! Could you suggest us how did you handle it?
Broooooo its amazing you click just random people without any interaction but your photo are amazing like very professional its amazing
I can't explain about you and your photography skills is another level
17:29 is my favourite
Best: 7:17
My favorite too!
Agree!
This was great! I love these!
This is the power of photography,with this people look much more interesting than reality.. Great work guys...
Ehy _future strangers_ , 12:12 that's the spirit, LEARN FROM HER!
anyone know whats she username on Instagram?
She a natural 😍😄
Yes, agreed. She was a sport, they all were.
"Hey how are you! I really like your *IMPROVISE MODE*"
It's a good excuse though, seems to work really well!
Hey sir i really like you eeehm lack of style can i... NO! 🤣
I could have never taken the photos even after keeping so much concentration... You made it look so easy all the photos were beautiful
Great productive challenge. This type of creativity makes people happy and makes the world a better place. Keep it up guys! 💚👌
the skater shots were really nice and jerome's shot of the girl who twirled was nice
Thanks Miguel! Yeah loved this girl's photo too!
Great video! I think it would be even better if it was a rule to not mention the challenge unless explicitly asked. That would be closer to the situation most photographers face and I also find the interactions much more interesting if the challenge is not the main talking point.
Those turned out so well for both of you! So impressed. I'm still so scared to ask strangers but I'd love to do it. I don't have anyone to go with me but I know if I had someone with me I wouldn't feel quite so awkward.
I'm new to the channel and I like your stuff bro. Great work👍
12:10 aaa she has Angelic Voice, the "Yeaah" it so Calming on my Ears
I was smiling watching this entire thing. Anxiety shooting through the roof because I know EXACTLY how nerve-racking doing that can be. Awesome job!
Tu a une bon humeur communicative c'est fou !
