Irrespective of whether you have your work constructively reviewed; this channel is a must for any photographer - from 35 mm to large format; from beginner to a professional who has just worn out his third Nikon FM3A - there are pointers here for all.

Another fantastic insight and wonderful shots (from a fellow portrait photographer) - thanks so much the sharing and brilliant storytelling!

caught your Cocteau Twins video after you put it in the the CT subreddit. been binging your videos ever since! just upgraded from a point & shoot 35mm to a Canon AE1 & i can’t wait to properly invest in my photography. i’ve already learned a lot from you guys!

I disagree that I'm "throwing away the color gamut" because I favor B&W. If color isn't really a big part of the image that's a solid reason to go with B&W. True, its not a "technical" limit anymore to use B&W, but it is can still bring great results for many images.

More details of this amazing man please!!!

What a great way to givenback. Look at new work, comment and the twist, publish the sessions. Great amplification.

I love your channel. I’ve watched all the videos & can’t wait for more! They give a fascinating insight into portrait photography. Thanks.

I’m flattered to have been selected to have my folio reviewed/critiqued. I’m very grateful - and I’ll take heed of - those comments that you have made. Thanks. David

All your videos are great, so informative, entertaining too, mini masterclasses. I'm an old pro', but still learning...

Thanks for another great video. Interesting to hear what makes a good portfolio and what some employers are looking for. I think there was a good variety of newer and more experienced photographers which makes for a good video.

Really useful, thank you both!

Excellent video as always, looking forward to your next one.

It's always great fun to listen to these nuggets of wisdom. On the topic of B&W photography, I think there's still a justification for it. I love colour but it can be distracting. Shooting B&W removes that distraction. I think of it as refining the picture, rather than taking something away. My first five years of photography I couldn't really afford colour photography, so I learned to love B&W out of necessity.

Great video, thanks, such an insight

Marco is beautiful 😍 We also have a cockerdor called Byron. They are wonderful dogs 🐕 😊

Wry sense of humor? Who knew?

Beautiful film. I was really moved by it. Thank you for making it.

Very nice film portrait and tribute

Beautiful Harry and Fred. Right down to the last frame.....make a thing!

My sincerest thanks to you both for producing and posting such a beautiful homage to my dad. And that little story near the beginning of the movie was a surprise to me. Of course, I know he was Jewish (we're Sephardic), but I've never really heard him actually refer to himself as Jewish. It just never came up in conversation. And curiously, I'd never heard that story before. Huh. Another piece of his life's puzzle falling into place. And regarding the quality of the video itself, the quality of your photography, the nature of the lighting on Dad's face in the early interview, your gentle choice of music... Suzanne Clark (below) said it best: "You captured him perfectly." And you did. Thank you. It brought a tear to my eye.

Another great video, I’m really enjoying the channel. Fred, any chance you could ask Harry what binders he uses to store those negatives. I’ve yet to find one that fits perfectly in a Kallax unit like that. Ha.

Gorgeous and very touching. Thank you for doing this film, I'm not sure everyone has a momument like this to look at when they want.

I reckon you got your own back by taking a pretty horrible picture of her!

❤

This was beautiful to watch, I really appreciated that you chose to leave all the talking to him. A truly happy man, inspiring.

What a gift. Thank you so much Harry. You captured Al perfectly. Thoughtful always and oh so humble! Never overly critical or apologetic for whatever he made. He also used the f...word better than anybody I know.

If you didn't get the £1 you should sue her for your share of the proceeds from 'her' book.

You've made a beautiful thing about a man who made beautiful things, who will be remembered by those who knew him, and, thanks to you, many of us who have watched this beautiful thing. Thank you ❤❤

Great work, thank you ❤

Wonderful film and tribute of a truly happy man. Thanks Fred and Harry for this. ❤

You're a brilliant photographer and equally brilliant raconteur! Thanks for sharing!

Lovely...

Well done guys, excellent film making and through ‘making a thing’ you’ve allowed Albert to inspire and affect our lives… ‘It wasn’t there before I started…’ simply wonderful.., how many of us are now inspired by that one, simple, clever, heartfelt line? Thanks for sharing

Brilliant, thank you

Beautiful... can't wait to see more of these Fred :) Though, I have to say that I miss the usual narration by Harry a bit.

Very moving film ❤

Gorgeous film. Can you identify the quiet piano music at 09:23? Thank you.

Class. 👏

A beautiful film. May his memory be a blessing to you.

Thanks, that was wonderfully honest, fun, engaging and super interesting!

Great stories, glad you recorded them

He seems like a right prk. You are a true professional. Excellent photos considering the stressful wait. Really enjoying your channel. Such amazing insights.

Wow i found out you did those dreamy Spice Girls photos. I always wondered how Geri ended up on the floor in her elvis outfit. Look forward to that story

Enjoyed this one as always. Still laughing at Harry's attempts to subtly get Dominic West to get his shirt off, and then dropping the photo editor in it- in the previous video. I know I've mentioned before, but is there any chance of pulling out one of Harry's first commissions- would be great to hear how he managed it, overcoming the nerves etc. Maybe comparing to one of the latest? One of the things I've always liked about Harry's work is his ability to design images around the environment. To what extent is that recci'ing the location before the shoot, versus instinctual? My last suggestion is a bit left field, but how about a live shoot, maybe with someone up and coming. A live shoot would show all aspects of the things Harry discusses- people management and social skills, design, lighting, and the rhythm. Maybe a tall order, but we can hope. Cheers, and thanks again for all the effort you both go to to bring these insights to light. D

I’m loving these videos! I’m by no means a professional but I’m starting a little portrait project and your videos are really helping with how to go about them and how to work with people. I feel I’ve learned a lot.

Another fascinating video and interesting quotes too. It would be interesting to know which of your peers from around that era you admired.

Wow. What a legend. Doesn't smile much though! I'd love a video where half is Harry talking about the shoot. And the other half, the subject looking back at the shoot from their perspective.

I was a young Canadian middle distance runner back in the 80s so Coe, Ovett, & John Walker were my heroes. Great story & photos.

2012 didn't reach anywhere beyond London, and definitely not up here in Scotland. Apart from that, your 'Breakdown' videos are magnificent lessons of the creative process in context and, of course, reminders of your work.
