You are a fantastic teacher as well, of course photographer. However, the humanity that you can portray in your work is simply breathtaking. What I love is in the ease of listening to how you explain your process which gives me great confidence in learning and continuing to photograph in this style. Truly appreciate the time you take to make and explain the process and your thoughts. This is a wonderful example of how to learn from a great teacher and photographer.
I love that quote: "a photo doesn't have to be perfect, it just has to be important." One of the things I'm grateful for was the fact that I managed to be present for all my four kids' birth and took all their photos!
Bravo! That was a beautiful series of images, and it really demonstrated what you meant by establishing context and storyline. At first the inclusion of the photos of the clock seemed a bit out of nowhere until I realized it was establishing clear segments and progression. Each image also popped out wonderfully, and it's inspiring me to experiment with black and white. Thanks Kevin!
Nice !!! Always enjoy seeing you images and learning how you do your work. I especially enjoyed that the shoot was done using an X-T2. I don't own any Fuji (or other brand) newer than an X-T2. I don't see the need for anything better.
It is wonderful to watch as you walk us through the thought process of each picture and the technical side of the light and composition. I especially appreciate the tip on the spot metering that window series of pictures. This video leaves me lusting for more of these type of videos!! More please!
Hi Kevin I bought your entire preset pack by the way. a question what kind of metering do you use for these shots? spot, spot center, matrix? or choose at the moment? thanks if you want to answer me. your photos are incredibly beautiful
Dear Kevin, thank you for sharing these private moments with us. What great photos you have created. I am very impressed. Great compositions, great looks and moments. All in black and white. Very inspiring. I will try that too. (X-T3 + XF 35mm 1.4) Is the preset Delta 800 from you? Thanks again for the great inspiration! cheers ❤ 🙏🏼
I recently sold/traded in my XT2 to get a discount on a lens for my R5....I kind of regret it. I have the XT3 but I have always felt that the XT2 always had a different personality to the way it did it's images.
Fascinating journey, thanks for sharing, I appreciate it! You understand transmission better than most people and you know what really matters and how to handle it. The outcome, including this video, is just fantastic!
Kevin i really adore your imagery and the B&W shots. Fell in love with fuji because it has the retro style yet powerful little camera that i enjoy taking images with it. I have shot my two daughters births, photos and videos too. Never been happier that i did that and till this day i have a side bed composite images of my children from the birth til five years. I guess i need to print more and change the frame.
I remember way back when, you were the person who introduced me to the work of Darcy Padilla. Her work on "Family Love" is still one of the most powerful photo-essays I've ever seen. And I recall you talking about how the emotion in her work and the rawness influenced the way you took photos and what you wanted to create. I definitely see her influence throughout the heart and soul of these photos. Beautiful photos of an incredible moment in their lives.

Soopp very true. That's the true magic. A good important photo is priceless, timeless, and ages well.
Nice one Kevin...Do you use AV or shoot Manual inoors?Cheers.
This series of images are incredible. What lens or lens are you using here if you don’t mind me asking? Kind regards

X-T2 was and still is a great camera :-)

Yes, Delta 800 preset. It's my favourite.

Thanks, Zach. That's a very kind compliment. And yes, Darcey's book and body of work is just remarkable.
Wow, a very powerful story and what a great album for the family to look back on. Excellent work
Thanks a lot, Nigel.
