      Hi Jignesh, thank you for your thoughts. I don't think the gear is a question of style, actually. When we break it down, you could develope an own style even if you "just" use a phone for photography.
      But on the other hand, I like your ideas about slrs. In analogue photography the choice of the film is already part of the personal style of the photographer. We don't have this option in digital photography, of course. We can add grain in post processing, for instance. But something like halation is a pure analogue thing, which gets difficult to simulate in digital photography :)
      Thanks a lot for watching and nice greetings,
      Christian

    Great video Christian. Some really helpful tips for creating your own style. It can be difficult to start but as you move on in photography you start to enjoy a certain genre. I liked your example shots you showed. Thanks for sharing the video buddy cheers 🍻 👍🙏

      Hi Adrian, thanks a lot, buddy :) Yes, it can be hard in the beginning, but it comes with time and then it is good to know how to boost it.
      Thanks a lot for watching and nice greetings,

    Very good video and well explained. Only thing i want to add is that a style can also be a negative thing. Soemtimes we are missing good shots because they dont fit our style... I just try to keep as open minded as possible when im out for new images. Grt guido

    • @christian.irmler
      @christian.irmler  Год назад +1

      Hi Guido, yes absolutely. I was pretty sure I mentioned that even in the video, if not I'm sorry, but I definitely wanted to mention it :) The worst thing someone could do is to limit himself to anything, just because his idea wouldn't be his style. I think, we anyway prefer to move in our comfort zone. But leaving it from time to time can have a really positive effect on our development as a photographer and also on the development of an own style.
      Thank you for your adding that, my friend!
      Enjoy your Sunday,
      Christian

    A very good presentation as you always have. I am by inclination more a documentary photographer. Probably a vestige when I did photography for money. I started doing landscape vistas, grand scenes, intimate scenes, golden hour, etc. However, good or bad I found that they didn't satisfy me. I found I was pulled to man/nature interactions. I find mountain scenes with a hut or cross, or bridge, etc more appealing than just the nature only landscape. Even within this I have two "styles" man's enhancement of nature (e.g. golden gate bridge over SF Bay,sailboat sailing on lake) and man's destruction (uglification ) of nature. I find the first inspiring and satisfying and the second horrifying and depressing. I feel the need to shoot both because they both exist (again my documentary photography background). As I do this only for myself and not for others, I find that the "style(s)" help me express my sense of wonder and despair on our existence.

      Hi Erich, interesting insights, thank you therefore! I'm convinced that it is absolutely important to go on with what we really love. This can also change over time. Interesting that you got led to horrifiying destruction scenes made by humans. That it also something I often think about to photograph, but it seems that the beauty of nature has a stronger affect on my, at least at the moment :) Fingers crossed that the number of such destruction scenes will not increase all too fast. But that's definitely an interesting subgenre. What I started to love in landscape scenes are huts, by the way. When they start to get destructed by nature forces, they can tell quite interesting stories.
      Thank you so much for watching and have a great Sunday,
      Christian

    Thank you for the information, you always are interesting to listen too. I learn taking courses that personal styled is something 0other thinks you have and it’s not up to the photographer. But you are right in that we need to work on it systematic. I often get the comment that I'm good at black in my B/W photos. I’m not god a colour, but that’s not a photographic style. The question is if a personal style is common in your entire work even if you photographing different types of arias in photography. I have not found an answer to this. Is therefor a photographic style a strait jacket for your creativity?

      Hi Thomas, thank you so much, my friend - means a lot :)
      I think, it could be possible that viewers recognize the handwriting of a photographer over multiple different genres, but that is nothing I personally would strive for. It could help for the pure business aspect, of course, but it has no big meaning for the art aspect itself. I think, it would even limit yourself too much as an artist, to create great art.
      Even inside one genre of photography you could have multiple styles. Take me, for instance: I tend to use different base architectures for vista and woodland photography. I will point this out a bit better with more details in my next video, as I did something totally crazy that finally led to a portfolio shot :) Spoiler, ups :)
      I hope you have an enjoyable Sunday, nice greetings,
      Christian
