    Peter I just found your channel today and I can't tell you how much I appreciate what you're doing. As a photographer that started before the age of Instagram, I have really struggled with how to engage with social media and how to present myself online over the years. I love how you break it down. I moved to Berlin, Germany a couple of years ago and have not utilized Instagrams potential to get me work here. This video, among others of yours, got me excited to share my work and create more to share online. Thank you so much the kick in the ass and much needed inspiration.

    I've found that a good way to achieve a cohesive look is to make sure that you're exposing your images properly while shooting in RAW so you can edit the images in a way that works well together for the grid.

      @1_yuffiee_1 7 років тому +22

      Mvson here's what I do. FOLDERS. organise by year > month > shoot (date and name your shoots) > RAW > exports (these are your finished edited files saved in an uploadable format).
      For example:
      2017 > JANUARY > 2704 London > RAW > exports
      Also get an external drive to back up your shots (I personally use a Western Digital drive as you can encrypt and password protect it)
      Hope this helps!

      What's your opinion/review on the A600? Thanks

      I always recommend it. Small, powerful, versatile. Crystal clear stills. The autofocus is super fast and it can shoot 11fps stills and 1080p/60 video. Also right now its cheap since the newer models have come out. You can probably find it for about 400 bucks used and 500 new. All around I say its perfect for a hobbyist who wants to do a little bit of everything.

    This has really inspired me to pay attention to my edits, for example investing into Lightroom, taking care of my watermarks and literally everything you have said in this video. I had gained a lot of followers on alexpaullcofficial, but this started as a spam account for my gap year I did with my mate, and I then started UA-cam and it was a place for me to upload everything and let everyone know about my uploads. But now, with everything in mind, I'm going to start from scratch. THANKS PETER. BTW, I've only been watching you for the past 2 months, but you're my favourite YTer right now
