      Mango Street it's actually a name of a 11 legged animal found natively in Tibet. And it is mostly used as a cooking utensil or food depending on it's 11th leg. 😂😂

    This used to be my biggest drawback as a photographer. I'd rely solely on a cool location and if I didn't know of a good spot, I just wouldn't go out and shoot. I've learned to be better about that, and realized I can create photos just about anywhere (well, I'm still getting there)

  • @WuschelofDespair
    @WuschelofDespair 6 років тому +2

    One of the best pictures I‘ve seen from you. I also realized that when shooting portraits you can utilize a lot of „ugly“ locations for great photos.
    It doesn’t work too well for landscape shots though, for those you need a beautiful landscape 😁

    • @maries.9145
      @maries.9145 6 років тому +1

      WuschelofDespair ...Always when anyone calls these kind of locations ugly I move my head from left to right! NO! They are not ugly 😁😁😁😊 (in the eyes of a photographer -as you said: not for landscape of course) 💙

  • @geebes2112
    @geebes2112 6 років тому +1

    I just took a self portrait like this last night! There was a light pouring in through a window and it looked super moody. I felt compelled to play around. I'll post it soon with the hashtag to show you. Anywho, great video as per usual. Thanks for being awesome.

  • @filipviljamaasvensson
    @filipviljamaasvensson 5 років тому

    A question if I may, what ISO are you using? The images look amazing, and the grainy look really fits. Is this something you have tried to achieve in post with grain and maybe less/no noise reduction, or have you tried to "save" the images and ended up with this look? Either way they really are stunning! Thank you for your time /Filip from Sweden

    I took photos of a wedding last year but I was still fairly new so there was no contract. I want to use some of those photos to build my portfolio and have on my photography Instagram page. Would I need to have them sign something that allows me to use the photos?
    Thanks in advance for your response 🙂
