Since I stumbled on your channel, the quality begets a channel in the hundreds of thousands, but it surprised me that you only had 3K subscribers! You deserve the (ongoing) growth Cody, I enjoy your introspective videos as much as any other videos, and I think people really relate to them.
just want to let you know i appreciate your videos. it has this relaxing vibe to it. also I picked up my first film camera after inspired by you. looking forward to more of your videos in the future.
When I saw your channel last month, I binged-watch all your videos because it's very awesome!! It felt honest and real! I'm also an aspiring photographer/filmmaker and I'm learning a lot from you. Keep going bro, I believe in you!
UA-cam needs more creators like Cody because it was made for creators like Cody. I've been using this site since Smosh released the skit Toy Airplane. Cody is a real youtuber. thx bro
I came across your channel a few months back and your lifestyle and art has inspired to explore more in my life. It was motivating to go out again and capture more photos for my page. To enjoy what I love to do and to let go of the imperfections and make them my strengths. Thank you for post again.
I have just stumbled across your channel a few nights ago, and I have to say your work is great but it's your genuine personality that you've been able to portray on video that hits home. Keep up the great work & hang in there.
I started same time as you. I put a bit of effort in but still have FA subs. Then I discovered Cody Mitchell's channel and realized what it really takes.. you really are a good movie maker story teller and most important photographer. Screw you Cody Mitchell... see you in the next video 😀🐕
Greetings from Perth, Australia! Congrats on hitting the 10k mark. This has already become one of my favourite photography channels on the platform. Really like the philosophical insights into photography that's common through all your stuff. I think this channel really appeals to those of us who have a romantic view on the role photography plays in our lives. Fav video so far is the zone system one. So well polished, entertaining, and educational.
Khanh, thank you so much. Glad you appreciate it! I definitely know what you mean about having a romantic view of photography. It's such a miracle of an art form it can be hard not to be romantic about it sometimes. Thanks for your kind words and support. Appreciate you!
just wanted to say i truly think your are one of the most creative and inspiring artists on this platform, been watching for a bout a year and the mix of beautiful shots, poetic and much needed mental advice, and all around creativity is amazing. congrats and looking forward to much more
Congrats on 10k and another congrats on almost hitting 15k. Your videos have been a breath of fresh air. Works that truly speak to me and apparently many others. Keep living, keep creating, and keep being honest. You'll find a place to land. Much love brother. Excited to see what the rest of this year holds for you.
Thank you, Kenneth! A breath of fresh air is what I strive for so it means a lot to me that you'd say that. Wishing you the very best for this year as well!
The honesty in your struggles are very relatable, especially the juggling act. I feel like that deep down and am trying to push forward every minute of everyday, even though I know I’m privileged and lucky, I still struggle. Great videos man keep it going.
This video came at the right time. Last year I told myself I am going to do youtube videos about photography. Trips in the Czech Republic, showcasing and shooting less known parts. Mostly analog photography. I fell a victim to my need to compare myself to my analog photography heroes, yourself included. My shots were not good enough, my script wasn't good enough, my own voice hurt my ears, my actual photos were crap. So I tried some attempts anyway, even cut some videos and after a few nights' work they ended up in the Windows bin. Include in that family to take care of and cherish (2yo), a 9to5, I burned out quickly. I felt some resurgence a few weeks ago only to be put into a miserable state by the Ukraine war, knowing even my Kyokushin sensei fights in that war. It's too damn close and I feel like doing UA-cam is just a stupid idea, that doesn't help anybody in these awful times and apart from sending some money, I fell into depression, that I can't do more for the effort. But maybe, it's the right thing to do, to put my voice out there even in these bad times. I am still not sure, but you made me think about it again. Thank you, Cody, can't wait to see you in the next video, stay safe and of course, put yourself, your health, and your loved ones first, we'll be here waiting.
Just discovered your channel and love everything of it, especially bringing emotions into your videos. We need more of this, more vulnerability. Take care and continue the great work!
Cody I feel you bro I am in a same boat as you are, going through a lot of stuff too when you have UA-cam episode on i watch and do enjoy what you do and hope to be there soon to experience the real freedom of expressing my creative ability maybe not in photography but in DJ mixing and showing my creativity there or my cooking ;) but it has been a hard year for a lot of people, any way Cody till next time let GOD be your guide on what ever path you are going, like I all ways say "LIVE FREE OR DIE TRYING" your friend from Canada :)
hey Cody, you make quality content and truly deserve an audience in the hundreds of thousands. Congratulations on the success and wish you plenty of further successes.
This video is excellent. This is going into me rewatch playlist. Just hearing what you had to say really makes me feel better about my journey. I’m currently in the “making videos no one watches” stage of my journey. It’s tough and I’ve wanted to quit several times. Thanks again, this really helped me.
Watching the sub explosion has been awesome! Wishing you the best on this journey. The wait is always worth it for your work but I’m absolutely familiar with perfect being the enemy of good. You’re getting stuff out there and should be proud of that feat.
I love how open an honest this is. I definitely feel like I have to 1-up my creative work every time, even though it's impossible to just keep going up & up. This was a good reminder to everyone out there it's okay to at least stay consistent, instead of burning yourself out. Just keep on creating & putting your videos out there Cody. We love them just the way they are :)
Absolutely, Drea. I feel it's really helpful to lower our expectations in times like these and not forget to nurture our creativity. Thanks for your support. It means the world to me!
I found your channel researching a vintage point and shoot 35mm camera. Your video of the Olympus Mju caused me to binge watch multiple videos created by you. Oh my.. you've really put a lot into your videos! You deserve massive amounts of growth on your channel, and it seems the wave of that is coming! I sound like a fanboy..but SO WHAT..maybe I am hahahaha. Love your creativity..love your videos. Subscribed!
Here from PM shoutout bro! gutted I hadn’t found you earlier, shame on you UA-cam algorithm… but better late than never, so I’m binging and its 🔥 good on you for the grind bro
Grounded channels like yours are the beat and should be the most popular and enjoyable unlike those too polished and just a bit fake keep up the good work
I’ve liked a lot of your stuff. is different, seems to me you have succeeded at finding a voice, though I’m not good at identifying what that would be exactly. hope stuff works out

Really appreciate that. Super grateful for wholesome people such as yourself to make the journey worthwhile. Thank you!

Honored to have you along, Titus. Thank you! I promise that though my pace is slow at the moment, there is much more on the way!
Perfectionism is a crutch is what I really needed to hear today
UA-cam needs more creators like Cody because it was made for creators like Cody. I've been using this site since Smosh released the skit Toy Airplane. Cody is a real youtuber. thx bro
Good for you for trying so hard! Thats more than many of us do this honestly, good luck man! You got this

Thank you. Wishing success right back at you!
I have unsubscribed from some of the big channels to watch more like you - honesty and less showmanship, but with a professional feel.
honesty is paramount! thanks for your comment. glad you're here!
First time I’ve come across your channel. Really enjoyed this video and funnily enough was just what I needed to hear today. Thanks for posting :)
So glad to hear it, Niamh! Thank you for watching!
You’re doing great! Love seeing you grow

The dip is oftentimes the hardest part. Wishing you the best of luck Curtis!
@@Codacolor Thank you very much! I’m happy to say I’m past the dip and I’m really enjoying the work I’m doing. Have a wonderful day
done is better than perfect. i needed that.
Watching the sub explosion has been awesome! Wishing you the best on this journey. The wait is always worth it for your work but I’m absolutely familiar with perfect being the enemy of good. You’re getting stuff out there and should be proud of that feat.
Thank you, Jared! It is a simple concept and one that is easy to forget. Appreciate you!
BEST MAN ON UA-cam!

Thanks Big Dog. It's a pleasure to share them with you!
