Wow! This is the dream... having a client appreciate the art of photography instead of killing it with perfection or too many standardised requests. This is some fresh wind especially for automotive photography! I love the results! Can't wait for the Porsche vid. 📸❤🔥
Very grateful to work with Cassidy who was incredibly open minded about the approach to the images, but had a clear direction at the same time. I think if they wanted traditional car photography, they wouldn’t have hired a kid who shoots landscapes 99% of the time. It was a great time.
So happy to see you getting these big time gigs lately man, you’ve been my biggest inspiration in shooting film and capturing memories with photos in general. Cant wait to see where it all takes you and the legacy you leave

The fact that you are not used to shooting cars makes your photos more interesting. Your perspective in different.
Yes! This makes me think how when I found your channel it was the start of the Covid lock-downs and we were all house-bound. I was worried about how you and others like you would even survive economically. But now, you're getting the most amazing work! So happy for your success. I still look forward to all of these RUclips productions just as much as I enjoyed them back then. Now, off the the magazine shop to grab a copy of R&T in print! ✌
Every time Willem posts a video working with another big magazine or commission it makes me incredibly happy. Being an excellent photographer is one thing, but being a unique photographer who really produces work that stands apart from contemporaries in photography is rare and incredible to watch the process. I could have spotted your style a mile away and the end images are just jaw-dropping, I often pause the video to just stare at some of these pictures for a while.
I love the photos, Willem. As someone who has flipped through so many car magazines over the years, it’s so great to see an institution like Road & Track request images that aren’t the typical photos we see in every car spread. There are definitely some incredibly talented car photographers out there, but it’s so nice to see your simple, stripped down, intimate shoot between you, the car, the driver and the road. And orange was a great color for this!
It's refreshing seeing commercial car photography being shot on film, instead of being a super sharp digital photo. This may open up more opportunities for automotive film photography. Great video, thank you!
Automotive film photography has been pretty niche from what i can tell, love to see that its getting some recognition, especially from someone as prominent in the community as you!!
I'd love to see more car photography content! I'm a 17 year old who has for lots of strange and wonderful reasons, somehow gotten my hands on now 9 cameras in the last half year. I absolutely love film and cars even moreso, you've taught me so much and I'd love to expand my knowledge by learning about this niche side of photography from someone I've learnt so much from already!
this video was great. Car photography isn't your main thing but I would definitely pay you any amount to shoot my car🙌🏽. I can't explain the good vibes this video gave me.
omg i had no idea you were here in stuttgart! i literally pass by the museum on my way to work hahah, you are such an inspiration to me when it comes to photography, i would have loved to at least invite you to spend some time in the nature climbing park i work at
Thank you for this. I've been in a bit of a rut personally when it comes to my own photography and it was inspiring to see. You've given me a lot to think about.
Nice job with the motion blur! Speaking of car stuff, you might like the British Invasion car show if you've heard of it. Think it's in September in Vermont.
Such an awesome opportunity! Looking forward to more car content! I'd love to see you do period correct VW Beetle 60s/70s photos. I feel it would fit the film vibe so well in California
I love how you can appreciate the imperfect, which for me is the wonder of analog photography. In addition to being able to have a client who knows how to use those imperfections as part of the poetry of photography. Great job! Congratulations. I wrote you on IG!!
I agree. Very lucky that road & track is so open to working with people beyond the traditional realm of automotive photography. I believe most of the photographers in the issue are more landscape and editorial based in their practice and it’s cool to see a magazine moving away from the traditional commercial style.
Great results! I am not a fan of car photography. But I love the images you got. Looking forward now to the photos from Porsche. Hope you enjoyed Germany. Greetings from Berlin.
I can't even imagine trying to track anything with such a massive camera. It's hard to get those rolling shutter tracking shots. I'm betting you went through a roll or two just trying it.
Amazing pictures and dream job to work on! Motions gives so much energy to those shots - like unleashed power of Z06. Btw - have You changed Your car to RX? :D
@Phillip Banes cause in 99% of cases people drive in traffic with other people constantly stopping and going and getting stuck. Cars are the least efficient mode of transportation and car infrastructure is the most expensive type of infrastructure that prevents other types of infrastructure from existing, tax paid roads are wrong because effectively it's a gift to car and oil companies, incredibly expensive gift that has to be updated every few years too, unlike literally any other type of transit. This is why I'm saying it's imaginary, this type of imagery of you alone in a car traveling is just not a reality of car ownership, it's a car ad.
Why would I want to be another Larry Chen. He’s already killing it what he does. Would rather experiment and try something different than try to replicate another persons work.
Having shot more than enough cars in my career, I think you've got some really great images (and on film as well!) Even got the 'Car Photographers Hand Gestures' down :)
I see that even the best ones sometimes receive hate comments, what awaits me hahaha, incredible photos! You have motivated me to try car photography with my canon a1, incredible photos!!
Beautiful shots, I shoot a lot of cars myself. Mostly trackside with the cars in motion, couldn't imagine doing that on film, I would go through bucketloads of rolls hahahaha.
Jacques-Henri Lartigue is the father of car photography check him out. There are plenty of race tracks in your neighborhood Laguna Seca is the only track I haven’t driven. This my bit of advice tell a good joke, buy a Porsche join the club and they will get you on all the race tracks and teach you to drive them and get a 300mm lens for the Fuji and Polarizing filters a good joke can get you into a sweet ride
When you take a picture with a digital camera, one way or another, the camera "makes up" the picture. There is a data decryption algorithm based on the processor and the matrix gives the result. In fact, this decoding algorithm is the “invention” of a photograph. At the same time, as a rule, photographs of people, still on the camera screen, are “corrected”. Modern photographers prefer mirrorless cameras. More and more I heard the testimony: "so as not to meet to look into the viewfinder." It's convenient - to look at the screen like a TV, "turn the wheels" on the go and when you like the picture on the screen, just select the option. Despite this, it cannot be said that SLR cameras, in our time, have ceased to be popular and have become a thing of the past. There are still those professionals who use their advantage and device to the fullest. But, photographs on film come across from other types of photographs. For example, if you give a person who takes photos with a digital camera a film camera and ask them to take a picture, in most cases they will not get a good photo. In fact, people have forgotten how to take pictures and attach a frame to “correct” or simply press a button on full auto. Of course, it's convenient. However, real photography is painting with light. And in my mind, a real photograph can only be taken on film. Everything else is an attempt to make life easier for mankind. But, simplifying our lives, we certainly lose the meaning and quality of photography. When I say “correct a photo”, I mean changing the exposure settings after taking the picture. Either on the screen, seeing the result before the observed on the descent, or after the frame has been found, the photographer sees some events and changes; then again and again...
You should shoot this guy WheelemVerb’s V70 - much smaller RUclipsr but you’d like him I think.
I don't think I'd get along with a guy who likes Volvos....
@@WillemVerb He copies a lot of your style anyway...

thank you so much for sharing your pre-production process. its so helpful x

The film shots gives it some of that glamorous 70's magazine look. Very nice👍
Looks like you started in Julian. I've driven those roads to Borrego Springs many times. Loved this.

can't wait to see the Porsche video.
WOW. JUST. WOW!
This was so cool. What a neat experience and a great video. I also love that shot of the Z06 vs the mountains. Wow.
Beautiful

Hugeeee inspiration
Pics came out amazing !
Automotive film photography has been pretty niche from what i can tell, love to see that its getting some recognition, especially from someone as prominent in the community as you!!
the shot at 4:21 is everything /// edit - ok i said that before i saw the shot at 6:20 ... THAT shot is everything
I'd love to see more car photography content!

Best photography content on youtube, what an amazing video. Looking forward to the Porsche video, sounds insane.
Love this!
So cool! Love to see your focus shifting ;) to different subjects and challenges in the last couple videos. Great stuff as always!
Porsche + Willem. Yasss can’t wait ❤
Love you william, can’t wait for more videos
Dude, this is my dream career Willem! Amazing work, and fantastic results. Can't wait for the Porsche video, huge 911 fan; the 996 is my favorite gen.
Congratulations my friend. Looking forward to your next video
Thank you!
Great Video as always. So excited for the New Porsche video😊
this video was great. Car photography isn't your main thing but I would definitely pay you any amount to shoot my car🙌🏽. I can't explain the good vibes this video gave me.
Really liked this video, your style of shooting cars is refreshing
You’re a huge inspiration for me Willem! Congrats on putting yourself out there and getting these amazing opportunities man.
omg i had no idea you were here in stuttgart! i literally pass by the museum on my way to work hahah, you are such an inspiration to me when it comes to photography, i would have loved to at least invite you to spend some time in the nature climbing park i work at
Unreal! I just got the issue the other day. Very much looking forward to digging into it and seeing your photos!
Great stuff! Such a broad range of landscapes you covered as well!
Perfect time in 2 weeks in my city (Brescia 🇮🇹) there will be the extremely famous “1000 Miglia”
We’ll wait for u Willem ❤
that profile at 3:39 is insane
Thank you for this. I've been in a bit of a rut personally when it comes to my own photography and it was inspiring to see. You've given me a lot to think about.

Great collection of images, Willem.
I just shot a lowrider show on film for the first time, this video is perfect timing
Heel mooie film Willem 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This is the one I’ve been waiting for
It's really insane how well priced this car is for the performance.
Great results! I am not a fan of car photography. But I love the images you got. Looking forward now to the photos from Porsche. Hope you enjoyed Germany. Greetings from Berlin.

this is legendary
man, this was fucking dope
dude, i'm stoked for the Porsche video !
Great project W!
This looks like Little Tujunga!
Is the Porsche video released already? Can't find it :)
neither 😢
Sorry if I missed it, but is that Porsche video coming? Did I just miss it?
It would have been great to take the interior shots with the Mamiya 7 43mm lens - it would get everything into the picture with everything in focus!
Amazing pictures and dream job to work on! Motions gives so much energy to those shots - like unleashed power of Z06. Btw - have You changed Your car to RX? :D
fire
That photo of the GM developer in the cafe is unreal. It looks just like a vintage photo of a GM worker from back in the day. Unbelievably good.
Hi! Did you fix your RZ 67 film camera?
hair game strong
If I had to guess this is Niles
Wow
firee
Do you develop your own film? Or send it into a lab?
i know chazzy in the comments somewhere
Vlog your Photography with your vhs camera
Americans and their car boner for imaginary driving on a tax paid roads all alone.

maybe learn how to shoot cars with digital first... check Larry chen

loved to see this process - so cool to see you combine your two worlds of interest :) stoked for the Porsche content release!
I’m stoked for the Porsche video! Dope shots of the ZO6 dude!

Curious about film stock…
As someone who loves to photo cars, i love this.

So good mate. Nailed it!
