Do you have any travel photography tips that aren’t usual, or that you haven’t seen anyone talk about? I’d love to hear them. I’m sure that the others watching this video would too! Also - how am I doing with these videos? I still consider this a learning stage (as far as RUclips videos go). I’ve been active on the channel for a bit over a year, but haven’t made many videos. So, I’m looking to learn more, especially about what you - the audience thinks.
You are doing fabulously! I am hanging on every word, every picture and agree with you 100%. Traveling alone might be another good tip. Being an elderly woman, I travel with groups and although I have visited many of the same countries you have visited, I feel as if I have missed out. Even if I did have your same idea of photographing what I call "communist buildings" I did not have the opportunity or as you say, I passed it up because when I did see something, "it wasn't perfect". Thanks for making these videos. Oh, if only I could start over!
@@rosemarysheel5104 Yes. Traveling alone is a MUST in many cases. Though if you're at a festival or a place where there are many people anyway - it isn't a big deal. But for anything intimate, works well, or, I find it great with my wife and daughter too. Having a little child with me definitely breaks the ice. And... hey about missing out. It's not too late. Those buildings are still there. Though even in Georgia, some of those places I filmed at are getting fenced off, even the sanatoriums are getting renovated to be converted into hotels.
You are doing great! Your videos are packed with gems!! Talking about frequency, I guess once a month is about right as I prefer the quality over quantity. Also, I can see the improvement on the camera angle when you filming yourself; it keeps getting better and better in my opinion. Furthermore, as always, you are doing a good job to incorporate the sound effects when you show us the photographs.
I'm really liking the videos! The content is much more useful then most other photography channels, and I like that I don't have to wade through a ton of "fluff" videos, if that makes sense, everything is informative, interesting, and flows well.
You should have your own tv shows on photography to be honest. Very articulate, informative and insightful. Thank you for uploading, I enjoyed them so much.
Haha! RUclips is probably gonna get bigger than TV ever was, I guess it already is for some people. Who knows what can happen in the future. Thanks a lot! 🙂
I watch so many of videos but you deserve a serious and inspiring viewing. You talk photography more and gears less. You must be earning less money but more authority and authenticity. You have a excellent language and intellect.

Once again, smart and nifty advice combined with your very special way of presenting and therefore underlying your insights. So its easy not only to learn from everything you say but also "train the eye". Thats another plus I like to emphasise :-)
Thank you! I hope so too. Haha. Though I have no idea how it all works. Some vids got almost 500k views. Others that I was more excited to release - less. It's all a big experiment for me at this stage.
@@john_young 😂😂🤣🤣 I don't even know how to reply to that! I have faith though!🙂 I started making more vids because two of my videos did REALLY well with almost no subscribers, so... I am sure there is a way. Also, I do really like a couple of channels, not fully photography, but interesting stuff. At the end of the day, I'd rather have thinking, intelligent audience watching. It's rewarding to get thoughtful comments and it seems that there are quite a few of those on my channel. I'm even shocked at how little trolling there is. Haha.
I don't really know about the intricacies of youtube (best time to post, proper tagging etc.) but I guess the most important thing is relatively frequent, consistent videos. Mitchell obviously puts a lot of work in his videos and you can't crank something like that out every few days. But I also think that in the end quality wins. When you put out good quality content you will get a healthy, non-inflated subscriber base that enables various monetization options (selling prints, courses/tutorials, calendars, coaching, crowd funding for specific projects, etc. pp.).
I totally agree with this comment. Mitchell is the real deal all right and I hope he doesn't get discouraged by the fact that so many people are into style over substance. Having said that, I prefer this style of presentation because I'm an adult looking for substance rather than a kid looking for "entertainment".
Thank you Mitchell, your videos are always excellently produced and inspiring. my confession, I watched this video twice for your tips. Like your advice to everyone, be genuine and respectful to the people being photographed.
This is so unique! Unlike any other content about photography on RUclips these days. Thank you for your great work, it's so informative and inspiring. All the best! Take care!
Love your channel. The content and quality is excellent. Great insights and tips that I am integrating into my work. Looking forward to taking your Behind the Scenes course.
AWESOME video. Totally out of the box, and GREAT tips, which we all need... We all get stuck in a mindset, we need to step out of our photography mode and be human... LOL I LOVE photographing old abandon buildings and vehicles.
Wow! Just discovered your channel. This was excellent and inspiring. Another thought or “tip” that came up and was inspired by your comment about staying naive: Now I want to go back and look at some images in my archives that I took in Central America, Nepal, the Arctic, and Russia, and even at home, years ago. Some trips were on film and may be worth digitizing, some were taken with an early DSLR and may not have high resolution, but worth reviving. I was definitely naive back then - and I might have taken chances I wouldn’t take today. Another thing about revisiting your work is that the world changes - like your man with the car on the road, no longer the same today, years later. You may have captured a lost landscape because of development, or conversely a restored location, or a culture may have changed. When I look back, I’m finding I have a different perspective. I look forward to viewing your other videos, thank you!
Amazing advice, this deserves so much more recognition.Thank you. I'm in my second year of photography and bout to go on my first trip strictly for photos. So glad I watched this
I'm just here to say... I'm a videographer, not a photographer... but the extra mile that you go while editing these videos put your video over most (if all of) travel photography videos. Sound effects that go with EVERY picture, some sound effects, the examples while describing the tips, etc... just... remarkable. Thanks a lot for sharing and keep the good work.
Thank you Mitchelle for these unusual tips. I'm a Travel and Documentary photographer from Nigeria and these tips couldn't have been more useful. Cheers.
Nigeria... My dream to visit it some day! So much culture. So much that the outside world knows nothing about. Great to have someone watching from this part of the world. Thanks for commenting. 🙂
such amazing tips. I've been into photography for 5 years on and off. I love photography and want to make more photos but this time I hope it has more story in it. thank you very much sir for such informative videos.
I just can't express how well put together these videos are with the wealth of photographic information they contain. I agree with a previous post, you should have a TV spot where you teach these lessons and can showcase your style of work and the work itself, well done Michell, I love these videos and look forward to watching them all one by one. I can honestly say I believe these videos are the best when it comes to photography, please keep them coming and keep up the good work!!! Thank you for the hard work you put into sharing this information with us!!!
Being sceptical about local advice is a great one! I've rarely been interested in the places that locals have taken me. The best payoff though is that spending time chatting with the locals about getting to places can lead to getting their picture. And that would be one other piece of advice. Use your question about places as a way to start a conversation that leads to you being able to take their picture.
Thanks for this video, you offered much more than "7 unusual tips". You shared a whole philosophy, and a some practical ways to put this wisdom into action. This was a deep and very memorable video!
Your videos are so captivating and interesting. I’ve learnt a lot watching your videos. I discovered your channel by accident and watched 4 of your videos in a row which was over an hour. I don’t usually watch you tube for that long lol.
I am so glad I found your channel! I am doing a travel photography week in my classes, and your videos are exactly what I had been looking for about being a traveling photographer.
favourite channel atm along with pbs spacetime, keep it up. has that nat geo appeal but more practical. and id rather 3 good videos a year than 300 unremarkable ones
Very informative video. Each of the 7 tips are so simple that we could have it implemented on the go.. only experience can make such complex thought summarised to simple points.. Great..
Great ideas and advice again. Your images are so skilful and emotive, it's obvious that you have a lot of talent and can capture those important, fleeting, moments brilliantly. Also, I can't tell you how refreshing it is to see someone actually showing and talking about photography!
Hi Mitchell, lots of fabulous ideas, I've written notes and will put my creativity to the test. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences, much appreciated.
Great video, I loved the alternative perspective with ideas that can actually be useful. I can relate to the "next time" mentality. I tell myself that and there never ever is a "next time". Good stuff, keep up the great work!
I've learned more about travel photography from your course and these TY videos in the past month than I have over the past 12 years since I bought my first DSLR. Thanks for the excellent content and instruction mate. 👍
Another great, informative Video Mitchell, thank you! It's a joy to see a creative mind see photography possibilities from a different point of view, both physically and from a different mindset. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year to you too! Cecilia
Great video 👍 tip no 5 got straight to my heart. How true that people consider their surroundings boring and shameful .. it is indeed a challenge to bring something beautiful or compelling within such ugliness. Expanding your creativity .. truly said
Congrats on another excellent video, Mitchell! The way you articulate your ideas with your own portfolio is just amazing, man. For those who are wondering about his photography course, just go for it: it is another level of content. Keep up the amazing work!
The video ended way too early - I wanted more! Excellent tips. Thank you. I hope you can add some more in the near future. Also, I want to say that your photography is amazing!
Hands down one of the best photography tips I've ever seen on YT! Well done! I'm definitely take these tips with me! In a month or so I will be in the caucasus region! Was already looking forward to Georgia, but now even more! Thanks a lot!
I love your videos, I will be exploring travel photography for the first time in a long time again soon. Watching your videos have been very helpful. It almost feels like Im back at The Art Institute learning from my photography instructors, except I don't have leave the comforts of home or my location. Thank you for your channel. Also I really love that you mentioned weather photography, all my friends and family never understood why I was always out in storms or "in their eyes" nasty weather, I loved the beauty that came through my lens during storms.
Your videos are so practical and to the point. Please keep it this way. Much better than some others that have 2.8M subscribers with little learning content. You seem to be a teacher not a learner on YT.
Thank you.. I always look forward to your videos, and when there is no new videos I rewatch the old ones. Bcoz, its worth it. Your no-nonsense approach to documentary/journalistic photography of people, places and events are treasures to be discovered by aspiring photographers like myself. You talk about photography, and only photography, as should be with no crappy attitude (frono-photo or something that comes to my mind), no product reviews, no dramatic introduction for 8 mins and actual photography for 30 sec.. Thank you once again. Your videos and ebooks are like a bible for me... Someday, consider visiting Bhutan as well.
Wow. Thank you for that!🙂 Bhutan... Of course I will come one day! Somehow I've missed out on it. Couldn't afford the fee back when I was in India and now I'm in other parts of the world. I'm REALLY glad that you get so much out of the videos. I make them for people who are basically in the same situation as me when I started out, with the same questions. I'd probably never watch the other stuff that you mention, so I don't want to waste people's time. All the best. Thank you again.
A great vid with great suggestions. Unless you have someone on the same agenda as you,traveling alone is the way to go. You can set your own pace, wait or set up lighting, etc.
great video. I travel only in my spare time, but noticed very similar things. The most open minding tip is about ugliness. It is very stimulative! I love to wander around the different places in search of ugly locations. In very special way, they tell more about that area where you are then most 'have to go' places
Subbed, really good. And I do not only like your photography but also your travel style. I have been scouting for abandoned buildings in Georgia as well and will also revisit because I am finding out now that there are a lot more of them.
Love your art. The creative force is strong with you! Thanks for sharing your passion for photography. The "ugly" photos in the former Soviet block really make one take a closer look and ask questions. What happened to the people? What did they do there? Your approach makes me want to get out their in the action right next door.
Dude, SUBSCRIBED! Very interesting video, I love the way you communicate and how you provide concise examples of what you're talking about. It's also refreshing, as most photography channels here on RUclips can be all so similar (upbeat, exaggeratedly happy, repeating stuff we've seen in 20 other videos), etc. As someone who has been backpacking in Europe non-stop for the last 13 months and who had NEVER held a camera before starting this trip I find your videos super interesting! Keep it up mate!
How come this guy is not on Nat Geo or Discovery???!!! This channel is amazing, finally a not so preppy RUclipsr with their IG filters and cute posses. Thank you so much @mitchellkphotos for this breath of fresh air !!!!

You just became one of my favorite photographers ever! Amazing work!
Haha. Thanks.
it's unusual to HAVE to watch tips video and not just listen. These examples are just too good to miss 😍
Haha. Yeh. I definitely wanted to make videos which are actually use the visual medium to its' potential. Thank you.
@@mitchellkphotos yeah, can't stop watching, everyone is like a mini documentary with added insight 😍👍
Thank you Mitchell, your videos are always excellently produced and inspiring. my confession, I watched this video twice for your tips. Like your advice to everyone, be genuine and respectful to the people being photographed.

You're a great storyteller! And the use of sound effects and music add so much to the mood.

By far the best photography channel I've ever watched. Your videos are real tutorials. I really love your work.

Being sceptical about local advice is a great one! I've rarely been interested in the places that locals have taken me.

Use your question about places as a way to start a conversation that leads to you being able to take their picture.
Agreed. If the locals come with you - that's really worthwhile. Not so much for the place - more to connect with them.
The best channel about photography! Very inspiring with top quality, love your work! Thank you Mitchell!

another excellent video with fantastic shots ;)
Thanks a lot. 🙂
Absolute gold! Thank you so much.
keep doing what u r doing Mitchell, ur videos are different, not gear centric, minimalistic but efficient, i like it, very inspiring.
Thank you!
great stuff..really helpful...thank you for your amazing work...

And tip... I usually get lost. Its the most fun thing ever. 😊
Thanks. Haha. Yes about getting lost. Though it seems to happen to me all the time anyway. 😂
Hi Mitchell, lots of fabulous ideas, I've written notes and will put my creativity to the test. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences, much appreciated.
Great video, I loved the alternative perspective with ideas that can actually be useful. I can relate to the "next time" mentality. I tell myself that and there never ever is a "next time". Good stuff, keep up the great work!
Yeh... like I say, that's one of the hardest things - to "make" yourself take advantage when the opportunity is there. Thanks for watching. 🙂
Great stuff Mitchell. Rivetting advice and photographic examples. Love the videos. Just keep doing what you are doing.Very informative and inspiring.
Thanks for watching
Love your videos, your work and the information you share, Mitchell. Best photography channel on youtube.
Have you considered opening a patreon account?
I HAVE considered it. But it just seems like too much work, if I want to make it worthwhile for those who support me. Thanks for your kind words.
Nice video.
Great tipps and nice advices!
Thanks!

Hands down one of the best photography tips I've ever seen on YT!
Well done! I'm definitely take these tips with me! In a month or so I will be in the caucasus region! Was already looking forward to Georgia, but now even more! Thanks a lot!
Check out Armenia too if you have a chance!

Thank you.. I always look forward to your videos, and when there is no new videos I rewatch the old ones. Bcoz, its worth it. Your no-nonsense approach to documentary/journalistic photography of people, places and events are treasures to be discovered by aspiring photographers like myself.
You talk about photography, and only photography, as should be with no crappy attitude (frono-photo or something that comes to my mind), no product reviews, no dramatic introduction for 8 mins and actual photography for 30 sec..
Thank you once again. Your videos and ebooks are like a bible for me... Someday, consider visiting Bhutan as well.
Wow. Thank you for that!🙂 Bhutan... Of course I will come one day! Somehow I've missed out on it. Couldn't afford the fee back when I was in India and now I'm in other parts of the world.
I'm REALLY glad that you get so much out of the videos. I make them for people who are basically in the same situation as me when I started out, with the same questions. I'd probably never watch the other stuff that you mention, so I don't want to waste people's time.
All the best. Thank you again.
@@mitchellkphotos if you decide to visit Bhutan someday, I will be happy to accompany you and show you around...
@@ugyennorbu9443 Thank you very much! I may take you up on that offer one day. 🙂
Excellent tips. Love your videos...
Thank you very much. 🙂
A great vid with great suggestions. Unless you have someone on the same agenda as you,traveling alone is the way to go. You can set your own pace, wait or set up lighting, etc.
I'm glad I watched this! Thank you for the advice and inspiration
Thanks for your time.
Fantastic thoughtful advice. Subscribed! :)
Thank you. 🙂
great video. I travel only in my spare time, but noticed very similar things. The most open minding tip is about ugliness. It is very stimulative! I love to wander around the different places in search of ugly locations. In very special way, they tell more about that area where you are then most 'have to go' places
Subbed, really good. And I do not only like your photography but also your travel style. I have been scouting for abandoned buildings in Georgia as well and will also revisit because I am finding out now that there are a lot more of them.
Yeh. Some are not as accessible any more. Within three years things changed. There are fences and security where there was nothing before.
Yes! Glad I found your Channel.
Great content brother, Subscribed.
Cheers!
really great and thoughtful tips. love your channel.
Thank you! 🙂
Very good video!
Love your art. The creative force is strong with you! Thanks for sharing your passion for photography. The "ugly" photos in the former Soviet block really make one take a closer look and ask questions. What happened to the people? What did they do there? Your approach makes me want to get out their in the action right next door.
That's the idea! Good to hear! 🙂
Great stuff, thoroughly enjoyable and very helpful.
Keep up the good work! You really know what you are doing
I hope so. 🙂
Wonderfull content, and beautifully done! Without doubt you make the best travel photography videos for travel photographers 😉
That's awesome to hear. Thank you! Exactly the aim of this channel - to be useful for those who are passionate about this stuff. 🙂
Dude, SUBSCRIBED! Very interesting video, I love the way you communicate and how you provide concise examples of what you're talking about. It's also refreshing, as most photography channels here on RUclips can be all so similar (upbeat, exaggeratedly happy, repeating stuff we've seen in 20 other videos), etc. As someone who has been backpacking in Europe non-stop for the last 13 months and who had NEVER held a camera before starting this trip I find your videos super interesting! Keep it up mate!
How come this guy is not on Nat Geo or Discovery???!!! This channel is amazing, finally a not so preppy RUclipsr with their IG filters and cute posses. Thank you so much @mitchellkphotos for this breath of fresh air !!!!
Very underrated channel. Deserves 1M subscribers. And a (tip include your travel vlog in short or like a timelapse video will be awesome)
Incredibly insightful! Subscribed :)
Amazing content! Makes you see beauty in the places that you know, but did't pay attention to.
Thank you 🙂
Amazing video and quality! Keep up with the videos
