Hey Brae, good to hear from you again. I always like the way you combine storytelling, videography, photography and music. Nice to see you cover a new area, too. Thumbs up and looking forward to the next vid
Man, I tell you what. Seeing this video brought me back home. I'm from Northern Washington, a bit more north than you went were. Currently, I'm in Texas with the U.S. Navy. We were given the chance to go back home over the holiday break this last December, but I decided not to go. Having been able to talk to people from back home was good for being able to sure up my morale, but seeing this video, and the few strips of I-5 I'd mindlessly drive up and down...that filled in a great spot in my soul. Love seeing your videos, Mr. Brae, sir. I will you well, and I greatly appreciate someone else who loves the majesty, magnitude, and peace of what the Evergreen State has to offer.
I ended up at 45, 105, 300...I love the video shot of you walking with the tripod over your shoulder - strap hitting you in the back. I cannot count how many times I've felt that. Keep going - I can see your personal style emerging. Nice job. That overpass shot was fire.
Man I can't say how much I enjoy your videos Brae, and what is better than kicking back with a cup of coffee and watching this. It was a long time coming - I hope you and yours are doing well. Cheers.
Good to see a video from you again. Those refineries in Anacortes are so bizarre. The waters of the sound and gorgeous surroundings then these two grotesque behemoths. Yeah, I get it, we all need gas but still, they are UGLY!! Nice job at the pass! Thanks for allowing us to see you experiment with ND filters, appreciate it. I learned five stops ain’t enough! Either that or I need some 32 ISO film.
Super stoked to see you showing this part of Washington in your perspective. I lived there for 15 years and drove by almost every frame you took, even got coffee every morning from the coffee shack, and never saw the compositions you took. Always fun to see home from your perspective. Thanks for making these videos! Cheers!
@@BraeHunziker my pleasure! Thanks for taking pictures of Conway! It’s a hidden gem! Fir island was a great place to call home. You should do some pics of downtown la Connor too. It’s small but cute and has a good bridge.
Awww man. I was hoping you would've ventured into Oak Harbor. I think you would've liked exploring Coupeville and it's old timey feel along with Fort Casey. Would like to see you take pics of my town and your take of this little Navy town. Hope you had fun around this area and Deception Pass. I get the PNW sad when winter hits. The camera of mine hasn't been out since winter hit.
Welcome back young man. Some very special shots in the video, deception pass definitely a highlight. I’ve got the 105, 75 and 45 for my 67 and they cover pretty much everything I want to capture.
Man i have been in the SAME boat here in Northern Michigan. There was just a news headline about how we've have a total of 5 minutes of sunshine so far this year. Brutal. Good to see you back out and about. Makes me want to do the same. Stay well!
Missed your videos, love to see this beautiful Washington little towns. And the way you capture them in the photos and video makes me feel there in the moment, really cool storytelling style.
I've taken that exact same photo of the lake near deception pass. I was lucky enough that the water was glass and there was no cloud blocking the mountain. One of my favourite photos ever. Highly recommend taking the scenic route along Chuckanut drive. You'd get some amazing shots from there.
Good to see another of your videos. As always, it makes me miss the West Coast (used to live in Vancouver BC, now Quebec). I note: (1) Subaru product placement, imagine them as a sponsor! (love my Forester); (2) The low key bald eagle flying through your drone footage; (3) looking forward to your Howe Sound trip video.
Hey Brae, good to see you back here! I really liked the photos from the second half of the video, some great stuff (not a fan of overcast weather when it comes to photography!).
i ended up getting a bit 'unconventional' with my p67 lens choices...i almost never used 35 or 50 mm in 35 mm, but used 20-24, and 85 for people, so...a 45/4.0, a 165/2.8, a 300/4.0, and 1000 mm.(unconventional enough?) love the 165, and the 'sweep' of the 45, and the 300 gives some of that 'subject isolation' effect...i liked the bridge/stairway shot...
Oooooo, I thought you were going to photograph Dick's Burgers. Glad you took a long video segment of it, I love iconic buildings that say a lot about the place they're in. It's always nice, and interesting, to see a new area of Washington featured on your channel as well. Looking forward to the surprise announcement. Tomorrow? Cheers!
Haha yeah I didn't have it in me to load another roll while I was there, but I want to get a photo of that specific Dicks Burgers at some point. I love that building. Announcement coming tomorrow :)
Curious as to what factors made you select the Pentax 67 II over the Pentax 67, whether you are the original owner or purchased it used, and whether you already have a camera tech that you are familiar with? Never used a 67 II however, my understanding is that the viewfinder/focusing screen is significantly brighter than the one on the original. My other understanding is that Pentax no longer has spare parts and due to the electronics of the 67 II, there are very few technicians who work on them. Point being, as much as I'd like to have one, being a 20-something year old electronic product, I worry about ending up with a +$2,000 paper weight. Recently had an original 67 repaired, and I would not say that it was, "easy" finding a qualified repairman to work on it.......and I live within 100 miles of two major cities.
I recently made a video with a full in depth breakdown of why I went with the 67ii over the 67 and why I continue to use it. ruclips.net/video/bLrrNq9afok/видео.html
This video is different, not because of scenes, songs, photos, or capture...not because of the beard :D it's about the FEEL, and that feeling when you go for a photo walk and forget about problems, etc...at least for a couple of hours, and it can be like therapy.
I just picked up the Pentax AE pentaprism finder for my 67ii and I’m curious on your opinion with its accuracy in center weighted, and matrix metering.
I use the built in light meter in the Pentax 67ii, which is very accurate. If I’m shooting on another camera without a light meter, I’ll use the MyLightMeter Pro app
@@jordansmith4353 well, if you think about it you can get a bigger range of perspectives because you can also get on the ground if you want to, but a shorter person can’t get taller. Like in concerts, taller people have the advantage
That barn was wild😵
And eating in the car after a shoot is such a vibe😮💨
Dude it's the best haha
Bro that vibe of that video is different! LOVE IT SOOOO MUCH!!!!
Hey Brae, good to hear from you again. I always like the way you combine storytelling, videography, photography and music. Nice to see you cover a new area, too. Thumbs up and looking forward to the next vid

Ashton, thanks very much for this comment! Doing my best to convey the beauty of this state. Cheers and thanks for your service sir!
The production, the soundtrack, the images... Outstanding work!

Thanks dude! Really appreciate the kind words. Glad you're still enjoying the vids!
Nick Carver and Brae uploading the same day?? the stars have aligned
Haha happy Saturday!
Oh man my first NEW video since subscribing!! So excited Ive been waitin for this!

The last collapsed barn shot 👌👌
Evening light was real nice for those!
Truly a great day in the NW. Thanks for bringing us along again after a bit of a break. There's a number of keepers in there for sure.
Thanks very much for watching, Frank!
So excited to be spending some time here soon
Let's go!
Good to see a video from you again.
Those refineries in Anacortes are so bizarre. The waters of the sound and gorgeous surroundings then these two grotesque behemoths. Yeah, I get it, we all need gas but still, they are UGLY!!
Nice job at the pass!

I am putting Oak Harbor on my list! It's been forever since I've been out there! And yeah dude, the SAD is real here lol
Glad you're back......great vid and locations
Thanks Gary :)
Welcome back young man. Some very special shots in the video, deception pass definitely a highlight. I’ve got the 105, 75 and 45 for my 67 and they cover pretty much everything I want to capture.
Thank you! Yeah I'd love to try that 45mm sometime!
Glad to see you going back out again. You have been missed.
It is good to be back sir!
I was actually in that area 3 week ago with my brother. We went on a photo trip to North Cascades National Park and Mt Baker area
Mt. Baker / North Cascades is one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. Can't beat it!
Man i have been in the SAME boat here in Northern Michigan. There was just a news headline about how we've have a total of 5 minutes of sunshine so far this year. Brutal. Good to see you back out and about. Makes me want to do the same. Stay well!

Oh sounds awesome, Ryan. My dad keeps telling me to go shoot at Chuckanut... I'll get up there one of these days!
Awesome Video dude! Loved all the shots and the cine footage was so chilled and good !!
I can highly recommend Deception Pass State Park’s West Beach and Cranberry Lake for night sky photography.
I went to Cranberry Lake a couple weeks before this video. Can tell it'd be an amazing spot to shoot!
Long awaited video is finally here) I was very happy to watch it, awesome frames and the great relaxing video, Brae!
Thanks for tuning in :)
Nice to see you again.
Good to be back!
Enjoyed this video😊.... keep em coming!
Thanks Christopher!
My favorite part of Washington! Loved all the shots. Can't wait to get up there again!
Also is 16:46 the Dick's in Wallingford?
Thanks dude! That's the one son 45th street in Seattle
@@BraeHunziker Used to live right near there, dope spot!
Awesome man, some really great shots.. loved the collapsed barn!
Thanks! That was an interesting subject haha
just wow... so inspiring, beautiful, calming and relaxing. Brae... thank you.
Thanks :)

Thanks Christopher! Wouldn't that be awesome to have Subaru hook me up with a free ride haha. One day maybe... Cheers.
I never been up to deception pass, I'm going to have to take a treck out there.
Gotta go! Awesome area
Good to see you back! Amazing video as always.
Good to be back!
Beautiful.
thanks!
13:29 -- incredible, was not expecting that.
Also, can you drop a playlist? You have some real good music in these videos.
Thanks! And yep, I have one on Spotify: open.spotify.com/playlist/3z5ZmxhDrboI81f3PAVH4r?si=38a9dc3860a844ee
So great to have you back Brae! Love love love the shots at 14:03 and 15:39.
Thanks William :)
As always great video and photos
Thanks very much :)
Hey Brae, good to see you back here!
I really liked the photos from the second half of the video, some great stuff (not a fan of overcast weather when it comes to photography!).
Don't even get me started on the overcast days haha. I struggle to get excited about shooting in the clouds...
@@BraeHunziker The lighting in these conditions is just so flat and uninspiring!
Awesome video, thanks so so much for sharing, very inspirational makes me wanna go out 🧡🧡🧡👌🏼🙌🏻👍🏻
Thanks for watching!
Loved the video brother. Makes me pumped to get out there.
Thanks Dana 👊🏼
@@BraeHunziker anytime dude. Love all your videos and I find them all relatable to my own film process. Stoked to check out WA this summer.
4:39 i felt that too much 🥲
hahaha
Its gonna be a great weekend! got my hot kuppa and Brae in the morning!!. Thanks for the video!!.
Let's go!! Cheers!
Quality content. Really mate. 😎🏴👋🇺🇸👍
Thank you :)
hey what camera do you film your videos with. footage looks great
I dig your style, man!
Thanks!

The goat is back
haha 🤠
Great stuff man, this one had a nice chilled out feeling to it. Nice to see you back, I hope that burger hit the spot btw 👍
Thank you dude. Burger was the perfect wrap to the day! Cheers.
love it ! ✌
Thanks!
that dab pen was full! I feel bad for them lol
A true tragedy indeed
i don't mind waking up and watch your video at 1 am 😍😍😍😍😍
Haha love it
Great work as always!
Thank you dude!
amazing video! Can you take a video about how you usually make videos? please!
Speaking of infamous…what’s been going down at the Summit Inn and their parking lot of sketchiness? We need an update on the Lincoln Town Car.
Haha you'll be sad to hear that I was there yesterday and there's no decrepit cars anymore :(
It’s all part of the mystery my friend!
Oooooo, I thought you were going to photograph Dick's Burgers. Glad you took a long video segment of it, I love iconic buildings that say a lot about the place they're in.

lovely as always dude!
Thanks ❤️
What is your tripod/Ballhead set up? Looks interesting, Thanks in advance. Nice shooting.
Acratech head! They are the best
great video Brae! which pentax model did you use to shoot this?
Thanks! Pentax 67ii
Beautiful place.
I do love it up there
Which video camera you are using for recording this video? Looks amazingly clear and felts like filter
BMPCC 6K Pro
Is that the 45th Street Dick’s? If so that’s my favorite of their locations! (And the original one too, I think)
Yes sir! It's definitely the coolest one haha.
Good stuff. I’m wondering if maybe the filmed footage is to good? Looks amazing but perhaps steals a bit of thunder from the Pentax? Just a thought.
For me, the video is just as important as the photos. It’s the main vehicle for these stories, so I have no problem with it looking that way!
@@BraeHunziker that’s great. The video looks absolutely fantastic, it really grabs you. Well done 👍

where did that darn light leak come from...

I always use the Matrix Metering and it's been phenomenal for me!
@@BraeHunziker thank you for getting back to me as I really appreciate your insight.
please release your LUT sir
Dumb question, are you using a light meter while shooting?

@@BraeHunziker Rad. Thanks dude!
What kind of tri pod is that?
Artcise Carbon Fiber
why did you take such a long time off since you last shot?
Struggle to find motivation in the winter a lot of the time
no community gallery announcment?
Tomorrow!
@@BraeHunziker forgive me for I have doubted you
Lessgoooo it’s been too long
Glad to be back!
Awesome video! Very Washington vibes!! Dicks burger so much better than McDonald’s 😂
Oh 100x better!
Only color film stock that´s below 50 bucks...Kodak in march: hold my beer!
❤️👏👏👏

How tall is Willem?
Like 7ft? Lol I dunno, but I’d say at least 6’2”
7 foot confirmed
I’m 6’2 as well, I wasn’t aware photographers that were taller had more of an advantage tbh. I didn’t think it mattered

Cow and smokestack giving me Pink Floyd vibes...
I can see it!
