Great video and loved hearing your story on how you got your start. It's so true that the struggles we encounter as creators make us stronger (And the good people we meet along the way).
Came here for a lens review, left with a lesson about how determination and a positive attitude can change someone's life. Thank you so much Brittney Janae
"Sometimes a setback is setting you up for a major leap forward." Never sell that lens either. That's not just a piece of equipment, that's a legit piece of your history and journey.
Congratulations!, you never gave up and your mentor believed in you, it took him a long time to get back to you because he was lining up things for you, congratulations again.
Wow! I came for the review for the 85mm. I'm not only stun at the work this lens`` produces but how much it has inspired you. I'm just a beginner photographer myself and this video has been a game changer for me. Congratulations and thank you for your inspiration!
I already knew how awesome this lens is because this lens changed everything for me! Compared it to the f1.2 and f1.4 and I would grab this one over those any day! Such a great lens! Great Video Brittany!
The Canon EF 85mm f1.8 is a fantastic lens. It is my most favorite lens I have ever owned in my 15 years of photography. Great price for a fantastic price. I used it on a Canon 60D and was blown away at the quality of images you can get with it. The AF is better than the L series versions as well and it's soooo cheap. incredibly underrated lens. I just bought a Nikon Zf and plan to adapt one of these to it. I really missed shooting this lens. i have the Nikon 85mm1.8D but it doesn't hold a candle to the Canon 85mm.
Great to here a story like that with all of my struggles… Getting over learning curbs and just not letting those moments of despair stop Me… Keep inspiring
2 years later, this video shows up on my UA-cam feed. Likely because I've looked into this lens before. I just wanted to say I'm happy for you. I don't know anything about you that wasn't covered in this video, and I don't usually leave comments like this. But I'm glad you found your groove, and were able to develop your negatives (pun intended, of course) into something positive. 😊
Thank you so much! My dream is to do photography shoots and money money! I just found this lens for $100 and I’m so thrilled. My dream lens now is 20-70 but this one will do.
Dang this is so encouraging. You were on your grind for 3 years and then this happened! I would have been pissed. But this is a great example of preserving and finding a new path through opposition! Thank you for sharing so encouraging
I’m ashamed that I had never heard of you.. I’m thankful that UA-cam’s algorithm led me to your video.. remarkable story.. or testimony if you will! May God continue to bless you with all the success in the world!!
Congrats on all of your success ..You obviously have talent and I'm glad you're getting to use it... Nice work... Very nice to see somebody on UA-cam talking more about the work they are doing then the gear although I did watch this because I'm thinking about buying that 85 mm 1.8 lens..
great story! I need some one like you in my life. Ive been in search of a mentor. Im from NYC but a month ago I moved to Atlanta. You had a loss and God turned it around for you. you kept going and during that process an opportunity came for you. that's awesome to hear. Im moving forward too and just going through the process. Thanks for sharing :)
Definitely came for a lens review, and left with much more! Your story was truly inspirational! I’ve been taking pictures for a while just as a hobby, and now I’m starting to get more serious about the craft, like take classes, and add a couple more lenses to my kit, hearing your story has really motivated me to keep going! I have to subscribe after watching this, Thank You Brittney Jane! Looking forward to more of your content!
I was doubtful on the 85 1.8 for some time and had thought of holding out for a 1.4 instead BUT after watching your video there was something about your message that changed my mind. Thanks again for sharing your story!
I came here looking for an analysis of the 85mm lens and I ended up getting to a totally inspiring story. I am happily, and unexpectedly thankful for this. hugs from brazil.
NOT HIM "ACCIDENTLY" leaving your bag at the wedding location!!!! lol BUT GOD. Your story is so inspiring and I'm def subscribing to your channel. Thank you for sharing and you def SOLD me on getting the 85mm 1.8 !!!!
I was actually looking for a review on the rf 85 1.2 but clicked on it and it’s probably the best photography related video I’ve seen out of hundreds or thousands I’ve seen lol. Thank you for making this video, it’s really been inspiring. Keep kickin ass and spreading that positivity
I just started, im a year in.. I shoot with a Nikon D3200 with a 35mm kit (52mm) and a Nikkor 24mm (36mm) Crop sensor. Your content is dope! i dig peope who show they tools they started with. gives us little guys something to connect with.
Wow. This is super inspirational. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and experience. Coming into this, I was thinking it would be a technical video about the lens, and then I was blown away with your story. Keep it up!
Great back story and very useful info. The videos within this video look GREAT! You're definitely VERY talented and have a wonderful future. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Very inspiring story! lot of people selling this lens now due to new RF 85 and third party 85mm lenses. I might just grab one up on Kijijii! Such good energy we need. Subbed
I was thinking of getting this lens , hence how I came across your video :). It's a beautiful story about how a negative situation turns into a positive inspiring situation. I've subscribed to you :)
Inspirational! This lens, 85mm, is the one that helped me find your story, and I love how you show your work, with this lens, in the middle of your story. Thank you for sharing!
Loved the story ! I believe in fate and honesty!! I shoot lots of artists and sports .. I got started by someone loving my work as well then it took off!! Hopefully I can meet you one-day at some job! Take care keep believing! 💯
Amazing video! Brought so much inspiration and love to my heart! Thanks for sharing and I just subbed to your channel. Time to go binge watch your other vids!!
I KNOW IM LATE. But this was the push I needed, I was ready to quit. But something was pushing me to do some research on a lens and the first video I chose to watch was this one. Thank u for this push ✊🏾🌩💜
Do you think the 85mm 1.8 is good enough in comparison to the 1.4 being out? Is it worth saving to get the 1.4 or is there enough confidence in the 1.8? Growing photographer and wanting to add the 85mm to my arsenal! Thanks for sharing your story!
Honestly it's not that big of a difference to me. Of course you get an extra stop with the 1.4 so it's wider but as far as sharpness I would't say it's a huge difference.
We're in the Adobe Creator Camp together and I just saw you linked this in the Slack and I just wanna say I love your work!! You kept it interesting and the quality is great :)
Thank you so much for sharing your AMAZING story. Not what I expected when I clicked on the video but possibly what I needed to hear this morning. May the Lord continue to Bless you moving forward.
Great video and loved hearing your story on how you got your start. It's so true that the struggles we encounter as creators make us stronger (And the good people we meet along the way).
Thank you! Yes it’s so important to just trust the process!
Came here for a lens review, left with a lesson about how determination and a positive attitude can change someone's life. Thank you so much Brittney Janae
Same here!!! I was trying to figure out if I needed the more expensive 85mm or this one😄
Seriously!!!!
Right on that :)
Same!!
I came here for a review... and I'm leaving with the same message as you did.
"Sometimes a setback is setting you up for a major leap forward." Never sell that lens either. That's not just a piece of equipment, that's a legit piece of your history and journey.
You're so right! Thank you!!
Congratulations!, you never gave up and your mentor believed in you, it took him a long time to get back to you because he was lining up things for you, congratulations again.
