    The fact that you are able to reflect and learn from your past, shows insurmountable growth. Good on ya. Keep doing what you do FOR you and you will always be happy. I strongly believe that if you do what you love and happen to get paid for it, you will never work a day in your life. If you are ever in OC again, I would love to meet up and maybe do a Photo Battle. Cheers.

    I really needed this video right now, I was feeling very disappointed in myself and i was very much demotivated, I was lucky enough to talk with Hayden, and liam once through an Insta live and i was super hyped, It was about 3 or 4 years ago, You guys actually inspire me and help me to keep my love for photography, i dont have a camera , and its been 6 years, since i took my first couple of pictures using a friends camera, and ever since i have been following the Photography world, i dont know how it is going to work, but i have been constantly learning about photography, videography related things through youtube, THANK YOU so much for your contributions guys, I have been following both Hayden and peter for a long time and im very happy to see that you guys finally met, Hope that one day i will be able to meet you guys too, 😇😇

      This is awesome to hear. Keep watching man! Hayden’s great.
      If you want to get a camera, I would find someone in your family or within your friends that would be willing to pay you to say, film a wedding, by buying you the camera.
      I started with a Canon T7i this way and I highly recommend it as a beginner camera.

      Thanks for the suggestions man, I will buy a decent camera soon, i have some plans for the future and i hope it will work, but first i need to get a decent job so they i can buy a camera with my own money. I saved up enough to buy a decent camera but at that time my brother really wanted a laptop so instead of buying me a camera i bought him a Laptop 🙂

    Hayden-you, 7th and North got me into photography. I found Peter *after* you guys by some quirk of the algorithm in 2019. I’m still rocking my cheap Panasonic G7 almost 4 years later and I have to say, it’s a beautiful entry level camera. Lenses make a huge difference, but nothing is more important than learning how to adapt to difficult shooting environments. Keep it up!

    It is very nice to see the moment you met your idol.. you looked very humble in that moment... it is nice to have people to look up for sure. As we grow older and experience more, many of these things change and we see all these people around us differently. It is part of life and it is normal. Enjoy the moments you are going through right now..... loved seeing it... it was very raw.

    @ChrisJeanninOfficial 10 месяцев назад +3

    Dude, what a dream. I’ve been subbed to both you and peter for a long time. I started watching peter when I first started photography and I watched every single one of his videos and continued doing that until today. Funny enough, the same went for you Hayden.
    The day I found your channel, I went to the beginning and watched all your content. You’ve grown a lot, you’ve changed a lot, but most of all, you’ve helped others grow and change into people they would never have been without a little cheeky guidance from ol’ Hayden.
    I say this was a dream because I’ve always wanted to meet Peter, but meeting both of you in the same place would be bonkers 😂

    This is very sweet. I related so much to this video. It reminds me of when I met you guys in NYC. WHAT A MOMENT in my life that was. I was in ecstasy for the rest of that trip. You guys were literally my one source of entertainment during covid, i’d go for long drives and listen to your podcast, I’d come back home and stay up all night watching your videos, and would repeatedly tell myself, go out there Marina! go create! the world is so big and we’re often so stuck in our little bubbles. but you guys (you and the boys) helped me get out there and celebrate photography, celebrate the one thing that connect us. isn’t that so beautiful?! Thank you Hayden for that ❤️✨ i know sometimes it may not seem like much but we’re all here with you 💖 and we’re excited to see you grow as a creator and a human (: thank you for everything!!

    Hi Hayden! Great video! I'm glad you're back on RUclips again :)
    It looks like you're well and full with creative ideas for new projects 🎬
    I have been watched all your videos on the channel 😊Love the photo battle videos 📸
    Peter McKinnon, you, Mike (North Borders) and Liam (7th Era) were my inspiration to start photography. Watching each of your videos with the excitement with which you discussed your ideas, watching the whole process until you capture what you planned, the emotions you felt inspired me to take the camera too. I rejoiced with you in every video. Seeing artists like you and Peter McKinnon who are so enthusiastic about making quality videos and put so much effort to make the video look good it motivates me even more.
    I also started my RUclips channel over a year ago, but it's not for photography things. At the moment, my knowledge of photography and videography is a drop in the ocean, but that doesn't matter. The important thing is that I am happy and enjoy every new thing that I learn.
    Sorry for the long comment, I hope it's not cringe 🤣and it is correctly writtend (I used Google translate) but I just wanted to thank you and tell you like you told to Peter that you inspiring me with your work! I wish you success, don't stop being creative and positive!
    I would love to meet you one day! Greatings from Bulgaria!

    I will say this. You are very self aware, and it’s great to see with an audience you sharing personal growth, and it being ok to have mental issues. It shows people you’re not alone. On another note, contrary to the video, you have been an inspiration to me, and not always just after “fame.” I sent you a photo on ig under my photography handle(no shameless plug) and you being someone I looked up to, commented back, not with words, but a video. It was that video that solidified my hopes and dreams. It psyched me out, the man I watch progress, gave a fuck about replying to a nobody. I am from a small town, there’s challenges everywhere, but that night, u chose that reply, and let me tell you it was impactful, and showed your true humbling colors. So don’t be too hard on yourself. Thanks for being an inspiration, thanks for replying to my lightning photo, and being a (small town no subscribers, tiny amounts of followers, guy) I’d still love to meet you, collaborate, and just take some photos. You Sir are a good man. Never forget your worth, and impact on others even when it’s hard to see some days.
