What lens both of you using ?
WOW! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE VIDEO -IT WAS FUN AND EXCITING!! PIERRE LAMBERT HANDS DOWN WON THREE CHALLENGE. ONE THING I DIDN'T LIKE ABOUT THE OTHER PHOTOGRAPHER, WAS WHEN HE SPLIT UP PEOPLE, HE KEPT A PIECE OF THE OTHER PERSON'S ARM IN THE SHOT!! HE TOOK GREAT PHOTOS OF WHAT HE GOT...BUT YOURS WERE MORE POWERFUL!
8:34
Man almost every one is perfect 😭😭
You guys should carry business cards on you and hand them out to people after the picture it would make your life so much easier! no?
I just read this after suggesting the same thing. : )
I’ve just suggested it too and then red the comments lol
CrazyCatLady great minds think alike 😂
Edon Has, great idea!
Lol I just commented the same thing and deleted it after reading yours
Stranger: " I look like shit though"
Jerome: "Perfect"
😂😂 so nice
Which part.? Haha
@@karljuan8908 11:19
Lmao I came straight to the comments after that one😂
Bruh😂😂
I found the photo of the woman behind the glass the best
Thanks Tobi!
Agree
yes, agree
Agreeeeeeee
❤️❤️ love that shot
15:14 the way he switched his facial expression from smiling😀 to 😐
When people do that, it's like they were faking the smile the whole time, and their frown shows their real emotions.
@@cryora Not necessarily... I mean, sure, he may have faked his smile, but who knows? It’s fine as long as it’s not “the cringe” smile 😬😭But don’t assume every frown means that a person is in a bad mood. Some folks will naturally appear as if they’re frowning (e.g., angry or sad). Hell, my naturally resting face looks like I’m mean or ‘unfriendly’ to strangers, but that’s just how my face naturally sits. & on top of that, I’m a deep thinker, so it’s slightly intensified whenever I’m having a deep thought. So, it’s annoying as hell when a total stranger make assumptions about how you feel (facial expressions are unreliable when it comes to accurately interpreting how folks truly feel).
But he have a beautiful smile

Can’t believe how many people say „yes“. My first guess - if I try this in Germany I get 100 No’s - 50 slaps in my face - and maybe one „yes“. Maybe I try this one day
Haha unmöglich in Deutschland.. da wirst du noch blöd angeguckt und die Polizei wird gerufen.. 😂
Genau das denke ich mir auch. ^^
Marcus Schenk Das ist im Übrigen kein deutsches Privileg. Ich wohne in Paris und da würden die meisten Leute einfach aggressiv werden.
derVlogdahalt wenn ich so nett gefragt werden würde wie es pierre im Video macht würde ich auch ja sagen. Bei ungefragten Bildern wäre ich auch nicht amüsiert
Hey, where are you based in Germany? Maybe we can start a challenge here in Germany as well. 😀
I love how Pierre always compliments his subjects when getting shots of them. Seriously an inspiration I wish I could be talented as you sir in street photography
Pierre: Hi, how are you..
Lady with two dogs : #($(@($@(@($
Pierre: Okay no worries
Haha she missed out 😛😛😛
@@Pierretlambert lol😂
😂😂😂
@@Pierretlambert The images were amazing to be honest! :) Mad props!
Are those pictures straight out of camera or edited?
@@Pierretlambert bro please are the pictures edited?
As someone who loves photography but has always had problems talking with strangers, this was kind of inspirational. Thanks for doing the video, it looked so much fun.
i know this comment is two years old but i think if you have a friend while doing this just following you around and if u act somewhat excited and enthusiastic you will have an easier time convincing people to shoot, it also probably depends on the weather, time of day, month, how cold or hot it is, how old they are, what country your in and what city. I know nothing about photography however and just watch these videos for fun
@@mac8869 you are actually completely right
the best portrait
the girls behind the window of Pierre
ah thanks!!
Which one
yes she is beautiful, I want to see her photos again
I notice Lambert usually commits on people's accessories first then explains what he is doing. Example " excuse me that ['item'] looks great on you, I'm doing a challenge etc", chances of him grabbing a photo is highly likely.
Yes, and also he never starts with „sorry“.
it's important to learn psychology things before interact with stranger
YOU MADE ME HAPPY GUYS THANK YOU ❤
Pierre: Hi, how are you..
Lady with two dogs : #($(@($@(@($
Pierre: Okay no worries
How

Same🤗
the guy at 2:13 looked lyk a billionaire who just told you “I COULD BUY YOU”
TRUUUE XD
His girl looks like a bit of Jennifer Aniston.
3:06 that one is amazing
💯💯
Indeed. Totally agree here. This picture has everything.
Yeah i think it’s one of the best
🔥💯
yesss!
12:13 She radiates positivity and warmth
fr and her poses we’re perfect she knew what she was doing 🔥
her voice is so calming
Jerome, don't say "Sorry" as an intro. Just ask if you can take their photo with a smile on your face, and laugh in your voice.
You will get more Yes's that way, and faster too!
Even just miming "I want to take your photo" works as well, in my limited experience. I am an introvert, so do find it hard to ask often, so, sometimes I ask, other times, I mime the ask. It seems to work well. Plus having a smile on my face puts the subject at ease, even though smiling for me, is not a natural state.
Take from this what you will, and I hope it helps.
Thanks!
As an introvert, I agree! :)
this is real experience i'll take it :)
yes fellow introvert
Canadians often start their intros and questions with “Sorry”. I should know. I’m Canadian 🇨🇦😁
8:26 OMG! Who is that man? Such a gentleman, and polite.
Yeah loved his picture
This is SO OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE. I love it.
12:09 her voice😍 soo smooth and sweet
"Me as a Swedish takes a photo of a stranger on the street"
Me: shows the picture to the stranger
Stranger: what lense do you have?
Me: Using a camera that i borrowed from the school -oh just a Nikon 18-55mm
Stranger: well i have a 9mm
me: 9mm...? ohh "surprised pikachu"
hahahah
I literally bought a Nikon D3500 with an 18-55mm lens and I have no other lenses. I'm borrowing my school's 70-300mm lens rn 😂
@@supertwitchy8048 zoom all the way in for the BOKEHHHHH 😂
@@maxx_vdv4960 😂😂😂
@@supertwitchy8048 really works tho. I can get great bokeh with my 200mm at F5.6
The difference was Pierre's energy and confidence
I still feel so uncomfortable to pull out my camera in places where there's a lot of people..did you ever had this feeling?how did you went over it?
BDABASS I had this too it was really difficult but when I did it one time it was much easier to do it again!! So just try it👍
BDABASS I make sure people see my camera before I even approach them. Pulling a camera out from the back seems like a uncomfortable situation. I average about 95% yeses and I always think people who say no.
Lol as a begginer I can say i've had it, but just try places with less people, take it out and just don't think about it, just think about your photos, fuck everyone and enjoy your shots, because you are amazing.
bruh people do worse in public you'll be alright pulling a camera and shooting - just be careful what you are focusing on lol thats the tricky part
The trick is to target weak and old people so they can never be quick enough to chase you.
Nobody:
The GoPro: 2fps. Take it or leave it
big compliment to everyone involved. I was particularly impressed by the ease, the openness and friendliness of the people in NY. It’s one more reason to visit NY on a time. Awesome video ! Love it a lot ! Greetings from Germany !
You should come to Iran though 😊
The one thing that amaze me more than the number of "yes" is how amazing each shot looks for the little amount of time u can give on each Oo Mind Blown , photography is definitely an art
Someone else mentioned this as well, but I think the approach had a lot to do with Pierre’s success. He seemed more confident and started the conversation with a compliment where Jerome started by apologizing. No matter what, it still takes a lot of guts to do that. Kudos to both of you and keep those videos coming!
7:40 I don’t think my insurance covers this😂
My 2 Favorites shoots!
1 - Pierre: Girl at the Caffe
2 - Jerome: The guy sitting at the fountain.
Well done my friends! 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks Nestor! See you soon!!
Exactly. The girl at the cafe is outstanding.
That Asian girl at the coffee just won my heart ♥
the girl in cafe is amazing. the guy in the fountain was ready. 😀❤️
Every single photo is a absolute banger! I love this guys work.
Pierre: Can take a photo of you.
Stranger: Nope.
Pierre: Okay, no worries
Pierre thoughts: But are so in my RUclips video 😏
2:13 this guy is look lit 👌🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nice! What I take from this is that the approach you take when asking is what makes the difference, the first guy seems very experienced in doing this and thus had the best approach by complimenting people and being quicker with his words which made him more inviting.. the second although good, was more formal and reserved which is why I think people were more hesitant... also, like someone suggested, I would carry around business cards, it would make you look more professional and serious and not like you are just trying to get photos of people for free (I know you guys go back to these people afterwards but some of them kept on miving), don't mean this in a bad way, I just felt that if someone took a picture of me, I would want the picture and would also be wondering what's going to happen to it or what it would be used for. but really learned a few good tips on how to look more inviting to people. Thank you guys.
7:19 That lady behind glass really the best one! Captivating!
that dog's walk at 5:34 😂
the lil trot
What I learned most from this is that some people are naturally more photogenic than others. Great video!
*4:53** just a normal Minecraft villager roming around* (BG)
I couldn't tell if he was just amazingly chilled out or possibly super stoned.
7:20 that pic was Lit♥️🔥 🔥
Looks like you.👍
I had a constant smile on my face for straight 18:09 minutes. Thanks for that, that was inspirational
are you still smiling ?
Are you?
12:09 - that girl was in to you man! I think I’ve just learned how to pick up chicks with my camera 😂
Phil Adams she is cute tho, her voice so sexy lol
Wish my gf has that Voice
Awww..
She strikes me as well traveled, because she was just ready to go.
7:19 bet if it was me on the other side he’d be awfully shocked he took a photo of a potato 🥔
Jealous
If you're into landscape then checkout my ig @tan_d_may
Ehy _future strangers_ , 12:12 that's the spirit, LEARN FROM HER!
anyone know whats she username on Instagram?
She a natural 😍😄
Yes, agreed. She was a sport, they all were.
In Germany we say: § 201a StGB Verletzung des höchstpersönlichen Lebensbereichs durch Bildaufnahmen! Anzeige: 2 Jahre Haft!
Since 2020 you can take photos and use them for non profit usage as you want. The creator protection make that when you take a photo in a public space it become instantly your propriety and you don't even have to ask the model anymore. If someone is unhappy with a photo you published he have to prove that this photo can cause him prejudice to force you to remove it.
What lenses do you use in this challenge?! I noticed a sigma mc-11?
50mm f1.8 stm canon
When
Asian people are great at modelling for few seconds!
Love the one behind the glass and Jerome's photo where he only had 25 seconds left!
EDIT: Also the two, couples? Sitting (Pierre's photo)!!
7:19 through the window was my favourite!
2:38 he was a good poser!🔥
It’s amazing how many of them have airpods
Img Pierre pls DM ME
Nice video 😉
احبك
صراحتا انت صاير كريه تطلعلنا ف كل مكان
Praising people for how they look / wear was a good call, well done guys
Thanks!! Yeah definitely helps
I just love how every single one is so photogenic
You guys should give out cards to every1, so It would be easier for all of the strangers to find this awesome youtube channel
Its amazing how he took only one shot (framing) and still managed to take very decent looking portraits. Thats skill and experience right there boys!
7:18 was the best one for sure!
if you're in a public place you have the right to photograph whomever and whatever you like. The government and local law enforcement is proof of doing this to us citizens on a daily basis.
The girl at 12:10 is totally spontaneous. What a cool person :D. I'm really astonishing by the speed of acceptation of everyone in this video.
7:20 bro it’s awesome 😍
Best: 7:17
My favorite too!
Agree!
Girl: "I really look like sh!t"
Guy: "That's alright"
What he should have said: "No you look amazing"
17:29 is my favourite
16:56 I really like this picture. The contrast between the yellow drink and the black outfit looks amazing
what's her IG at 7:20 ?
🤦🤦🤦
1:48 You missed a 'golden ' opportunity to do the dog.
It's nice to see so many natural, happy smiling faces.
Wait, is that guy at 2:36 @leonkarssen from Instagram??? Followed him for soooo long!!!
Wow. So heartwarming. Thank you, Pierre. And thanks to all the people who went along with your challenge. 🙏
"This tastes like victory..." 😂
15:13 haha that transition
idk why but I felt kinda happy watching this and makes me wanna do something that I've never done before.
btw those are really great photos seriously
Great video! I think it would be even better if it was a rule to not mention the challenge unless explicitly asked. That would be closer to the situation most photographers face and I also find the interactions much more interesting if the challenge is not the main talking point.
What a camera setting 🤟🤟🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
"Hey how are you! I really like your *IMPROVISE MODE*"
It's a good excuse though, seems to work really well!
Hey sir i really like you eeehm lack of style can i... NO! 🤣
7:14 She is pretty 🔥
This proves that it's easier for people like Pierre with extroverted characters to face strangers and make them feel positive about their requests
he praises them first, before asking, thats nice
Loved pretty much all of them, not gonna lie.
But that girl/window shot at 7:14 was just.. 😍
2nd dude was explaining way too much
7:19 is the best shot
Thanks for asking for permission before shooting peoe! The world is saturated with "photographers" invading our space wherever we go. I was just talking on the phone leaning on a pole when a man walks in front of me and positioned his phone at a perfect angle to photograph me. When I realized what he was doing, I walked away. I hope he didn't get the shot. Enough! We are not on show wherever we go.
Asking permission means that you respect the person's wishes and that means you are respectful human being. When someone doesn't ask for permission with their excuse being that it's legal, that just means that they are rude and lack manners.
You are on show wherever you go. That’s why you dress well and comb your hair before going out. In public you have no expectation of privacy.
@@aquilifergroup Exactly. 100% agree! I never understand how people get offended or curse me out if I take a video or photo of something around them. Like if you dress a certain way or look a certain way, what's the difference between how people remember you and a photo of what they look like?
He literally only need one shot to make everybody a great *profile picture* lol
That's actually funny, I was shooting strangers in the moment when the video came out.
Thanks for all those tipps they helped me and my Streetfotos a lot!
Keep on the great work!!!😁
Haha amazing!! Enjoyyy
Images are amazing, and no one was wearing mask back then
12:12 very spontaneous spirit & a great sport...
people get so pressed in america when i tried this
Salut Pierre
Thank you for this video this is exactly what I was wondering! I'm too shy to ask strangers but maybe this video will help me :) Continue comme ça tes vidéos sont top, j'adore :p
Salut! Yes I'm sure it will! :)
7:19 shot is insanely amazing !!
17:32 shes so pretty oh my gawd
Your street challenges are a lot of fun to watch. Question: How do you handle giving your subjects access to their photos?
Thanks,
just compliment someone. make them happy. they'll say yes.
7:21 was a superb photo nailed it bro.🤝
I want that photo
the skater shots were really nice and jerome's shot of the girl who twirled was nice
Thanks Miguel! Yeah loved this girl's photo too!
- Can I take a photo of you for RUclips Video?
- no
- ok, no worries
*keeps rolling 24 photos a second of that person from other perspective :D
That always makes me funny :P
Also you’ve restored my faith in humans people where I live seem so hard to approach but people overseas always so much easier for me to approach
I've been shooting on 35 mm film since the seventies. I am kind of a newbie regarding one topic tho. I am getting my first DSLR camera soon so I am pretty excited to get into this new world.
I felt those compliments and they weren't even directed towards me. You're such a pro brotha ❤️
so many friendly people, also I noticed it helps to say a compliment first
lol second photographer's approach -
Girl: I look like shit
P: that's all right
next time man please say: Nooo! You look great!
people in the untied states dress so good, so many pictures turn out even better with a good outfit.
and then there's germany
Exactly that's what I'm saying! They dress so well, i like their outfit 👏🏻
Lol
Nice content . I will imitiate you when I have a portrait len
7:19 beautiful
Have faith in yourself, Jerome! You're a talented as hell photographer and I'm so glad you have a friend like Pierre to be your partner!
You guys should carry business cards on you and hand them out to people after the picture it would make your life so much easier! no?
picture at 05:25 has my heart man :) :) i hope it reaches to her
It did reach her
Human Beings can be such awesome souls
12:10 aaa she has Angelic Voice, the "Yeaah" it so Calming on my Ears
Ah yeah. I'm new to this and introvert by nature but it's surprising how positively some people react when asked. I got some great pictures; a lady even did some spur of the moment model poses and asked me to take a couple with her phone too. . I think having a pro 'looking' camera and a little bag helps; not forgetting a smile and a compliment :)
