- In this video, we explore the neighbourhood of Jiefangbei in Chongqing and focus on getting some good street photography shots for Instagram, focussing on the beauty of everyday Chinese life. We love taking photos but usually, we have to focus on making videos instead. We thought this area was super interesting and so thought we would take you along for a behind-the-scenes look at our photography day.

Wonderful shots and videos! Chongqing is a lovely city and has been developing so fast and so well in the recent year! Definitely worth a visit or even moving there!
Thanks a lot! Yeah it’s a really great city we loved it!
I like the building worker's heart-warming and artless smile!
They were so nice, everyone is very friendly in Chongqing.
I love the vibe of this one, kinda like a behind the scene video showing us what u guys passionate bout. Jack is defo giving out a different but very professional character while shooting. My 2nd favorite version of jack right after when he forgot about ' friends and family' 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Hahaha yeah he comes across well in this one he was very talkative considering he was concentrating a lot. Thanks a lot I’m pleased you enjoyed it, it was fun to show a more behind the scenes style!
Chongqing is a three-dimensional city with a lot of personality. Chongqing people are also very special. The photos taken by Jack capture this characteristic and have a strong taste of old China. It's worth savoring.
Thank you very much! Yes, we totally agree it was such a great city!
Loved your Chongqing videos.
Keep it up always ❤️.
Love from India 🙂
this is real china. thanks telling the world with your camera
I really love your videos about film making/photography. Love it when every bit of your movie is made of materials of your own. :)))
I wise I could visit this place now but hopefully in future 🤗
Hopefully soon!
It feels so 1970s, 80s, 90s for some reason. The bicycle era. Hard-working people. Each person a walking story.
A walking story, exactly! Then at night time the city changes into one of the most futuristic I’ve ever seen!
You guys are fantastic...
Brilliant work as usual guys! Oh man, @squarepegmedia has such a good eye for framing his photos. It's stunning! These videos are super helpful and totally a treat on the eyes for sure.
Thank you very much that is very kind!
Proper job you two! Good captures of the local poetics of Chong Qing. I love China. You do it proud. Thank you.
You guys definitely deserve way more viewers. This is amazing content.
Awesome content! All those photos have the unique Chongqing feel. I particularly like that special tea house, it is something frozen in time. Glad they keep it like that.
That was our favourite place! It’s such an awesome city!
These videos are so fun !! Keep up the good work and thanks !!
Awesome! I'm pleased you liked it I think we will do some more in this style soon!
Thank you for a street photography tour of a city I had no clue even existed. Greetings from Portland, Oregon.
Loved your Chongqing videos!
Thanks a lot! We’ve loved making them!
How you set up the shot and utilize the lighting techniques was so cool to see. Seems you have to be quite patient to snap the perfect photograph. You two have a lot of patience because those photos are spectacular.
Thanks a lot John! Yeah it was quite a relaxing day for a change haha
Wow such good photos :O!
Thanks a lot!
Kinda reminds me of Mid-levels in Hong Kong
I’ve not been to HK yet but I’ve heard people compare them!
@@Nicofilms Hopefully borders will reopen soon and we can all pop down to Hongkas for a trip!
@@Hazza_Harding Yeah I sure hope so! Jack went when we first arrived and I have been dying to go since!
One of Hongkong's most famous buildings is actually called Chongqing mansion. It appears in many Hongkong movies.
@@helendu5241 that’s true!! Thanks for reminding me
Chongqing is the most developed city in the world.
The city is amazing
nice photos
Thanks!
Awesome video, photos.
Thanks a lot!
Great video as always
Thanks a lot!
Unusual subjects but the resulting photos are really atmospheric.
A big shoutout to digital cameras for making photography so much easier and affordable. :D
He is a pretty good photographer 👍
He’s a talented man ☝️
it's a real fibre of a society.
Great. Thanks
I like the building n natural photo.

Love your videos! And pictures shown are stunning!
Thank you very much I’m pleased you liked it!
beautiful City
*Greetings gentlemen*
Welcome to China, the land of excitement
A new adventure everyday!
Maybe you can visit Changsha, a real city that never sleeps, a vibrant city.
Very good, nice magic 3D city.
Like it
This is great content! Just curious about your post production workflow. Did you make your own preset in Lightroom (or a in a similar program)? I like the faded film look and the shadow gradation is velvety in your pictures.
Thanks a lot I’m pleased you liked it. Yes Jack has his own Lightroom presets which he made. We are thinking about developing some for sale but we haven’t had the time yet.
Great video
I just visited Chongqing the weekend just gone, and I loved it! I tried taking some street photography but am always worried that people will chase me away. How do you get such good close ups?
totally agree. I got chase away when I'm taking picture of people playing mahjong in the street in Shanghai.
Everyone was very friendly in Chongqing. We asked a lot of people and waited until they felt comfortable with us. Everyone has cameras in China a lot of people returned the favour and took photos of us too. Most people are just curious and actually really nice about it. In some cities though I don’t know if people would be so welcoming.
Some of these photos are giving National Geographic vibes
Thanks a lot!
For the.stairs shot, you should have used.a.wider lense then crop your pictures.
Thanks for the tip! We decided to leave the camera bag at home this day and travel light as it had been a pretty heavy few days so we didn’t have any spare lenses.
how do the Chongqingers pronounce Chongqing?
Who decides on the latin script version of town/city names?
(Chongqing looks like it's oozing with multi-layered intricate character. I demand a video game set in Chongqin. Get onto it, Nintendo.)
The locals call it in sichuan dialect. I personally not verse in the dialect but my guess is something like jzhung-tcheeng. The latin version Chongqing is taken from the pinyin spelling.
he probably took hundreds if not thousands of pictures !!! really nice pictures 👍👍👍. in the old days, it would have costed a fortune to develop the films !!!! sidenote: kodak invented the digital camera in the 70s and then killed the idea !!!! just imagine, if kodak ran with the new invention, it could have made a fortune !!! instead, it went bankrupt !!! so sad. love from Canada.
Lovely video... As always
I’m pleased you liked it!
Hey guys! What were your camera settings for shooting there? Also what mm were you using?
How did you guys know those amazing places?
We found a lot by walking around and also had some local help which always makes it easier!
Omg chong qing looks like HK
Chongqing is similar to hong kong, dense and moutainous
Wow awesome, greetings from Malaysia 👍
Welcome! Thanks a lot!
Love those photos
Wish I can take photographs there too
Thanks a lot! It really is one of the most interesting cities!
First yay
So fast! Hope you liked it!

Photography suits you..
Weird question but do they use squatty pottys everywhere there? What about in the big cities. I wanna go to China but that scares me.
Before you go, perhaps get a brain.
They use squatty toilet in public facilities, and use western toilet mostly in their home.
It's similar in Japan.
I see Jack is carrying a nice Sony around.......back in my days we were lugging a Canon 5D with a heavy 35-300mm lens that weighted 23 lbs! China realized the importance of international news market, they are slowly getting foreigners on board. This was Roisin Timmins in a new China special : ruclips.net/video/1_rCTxTSQn8/видео.html
Yes we have a Sony camera as it’s better for filming, photos are more of a second thought but it was nice to get a chance to spend the day taking them!
