Nothing wrong with shooting trees. I live near a few different types of woodland and never tire of visiting them throughout the year. There are so many shapes, colours, details, etc, that it's always a pleasure to walk round.
I know what you mean!
Made it to the end of the video! Beautiful photos, Matt! I love the emotions and events you show in your photos of Molly & Nora. I would love to see more videos when you have the time
Thanks, Tyler! I appreciate that!
Carolina Beach? Awesome! I've taken some good medium format shots there, with my Yashica 635. And the best accidental double exposure ever
You are the best! Stunning photos. Love them. I really appreciate your gesture of showing us your family vacation photos. I'm just getting into shooting film and your videos are helping me a lot. Cheers.
Wonderful images Matt. Thanks so much for sharing. I have enjoyed your channel so much and have been a huge inspiration to me. Thank you!
Thanks for all the videos and sharing your work! Looking at making the switch to film so they are all very informative. Please keep them coming.
it’s always beautiful to see someone enjoying their day out with family or being close to theirs for the matter
Nora and Molly have the same smile! Very nice set, thanks for sharing
Yes they do! Thanks for watching!
+1 for book printing video. Thanks Matt! And congrats on the upcoming new addition!
With the way that the world is right now, both sides of the Atlantic, it's so pleasant to see nice low key videos by a nice guy who loves his family and knows what he's talking about. Congratulations on the forthcoming arrival too Matt.
Images on the M6 were stunning, might have to look into that 28mm
ur stunning m8
Great video Matt. Lovely images
Hey Matt! Recently found your channel and just had to comment on this old video. I'm a Wilmington, NC native and my wife's family used to own a house at Carolina Beach so it was super awesome to see my hometown through your lens. I ran across your channel after picking up a new (to me) OM2 and you've given me a new perspective on shooting film again. Your comments about having photos of people you love and care about has really hit home as well and I plan on really making it a priority in the future. Love your channel and what you are doing here.
Hi Matt ... I just love the way you cover all the aspects of life in the Day house. The family photos are great, and it reminds me of when my parents used to always taking photos when we were kids. It's something that doesn't seem to happen much these days. Great work ...
Great pictures! As always, very inspiring. Thank you Matt!
Thank you!
nice family, good job, thanks for sharing, donuts are good, got to get your fill when you get the chance, those evening shots are classics, nice job.
Thanks for watching!
your pictures are stunning! congrats on the baby boy!
I came here to learn more about medium format film and was excited to see that you were in my home town of CB! Awesome videos!
Just wanted to let you know, I was at Carolina Beach last week and because of you I checked out the donut shop. Epic. Absolutely epic. Thanks for the suggestion!
Awesome to hear that!
awesome family and family pics Matt .
Also best of luck for the new bub on the way ,always exciting :)
I'm from Wilmington and did a lot of shoots in Carolina Beach before moving to the mountains...great looking shots! I actually have a similar shot to your rocks and surfers hanging here in my office...those twisted trees are a lot of fun to shoot too!
Awesome photos Matt! I especially liked the one of Nora on the couch, with all of these photos of your family. It almost feels like I can see Nora looking back at them from the future :) much love and I look forward to seeing more of you on RUclips for a long time. . .
It's always nice to watch your videos mate! I know you have a tight schedule so that makes it even more special...
Thanks for the support!
Great photos Matt. I love the shot of Nora peeping over the couch. Wonderful shot.
this episode was awesome, great work in every single shot
Made it to the end mate!! Really enjoying your videos and photos. Cheers
These are awesome family photos :) Congradulations on your soon to be baby boy!
Congrats on the little boy!
Anyway... I love your photos. Really inspire me to document my life and my family. Thank you!
Thank you! Documenting my family is the best thing I'll ever do with a camera.
Made it to the end! Nice to see/hear how you used the 3 cameras to complement each other.
The photo of the seagulls with the clouds in the background is absolutely gorgeous!!
Wow, man! These images were incredible. It's probably just a matter of taste, but I was simply in awe seeing the M6 images - incredible, incredible, incredible! Keep it up, man!
Edit: I too always mix up Artifact Uprising and Artisan Obscura haha. And I would definitely want to see a video on Artifact Uprising.
awesome photos Matt, sounds like a you had a great trip!
It’s so weird to have this pop up in my recommended I used to work in CB before getting serious about photography and to see your perspective on it makes me wish I’d taken more photos while living near there. Great vid!
You are going to be a busy happy man with two children at home. Some of the photos look adorable. Keep shooting, so you would have a record history of your family. Peace, Flood!
Very, very busy. Haha. Thank you!
***** You are very welcome!
I can't wait to hear the podcast. I love having good stuff to listen to when I drive and you actually have a great voice with interesting things to say so this should be good.
Great video as always & congrats on your son. :)
Thanks man! I appreciate that!
Great photos! I personally like your m6 photos the most
Hey, nice shots. watched it to the end. I am a fan of the old analogue, film cameras. I learned on a Pentax K1000 about 30 years ago. Since the digital age it has been hard to make smooth transitions between the two. in the 90's I was using my Pentax k1000 to do all the weddings that i did and had good results with. I now use a Pentax k-01 and have nearly abandoned the film cameras.
My passion is in the Film, as i looked at the old slides from years ago and they're nothing like the digital images of today. Wile i was down in PA this last week, my cousin pulled out a old Pentax 6X7 camera that I had noticed that she had and said, "hey Jake if you are going to use this camera I would like to give it to you. You have to promise me that you will use it though." so I did and it renewed my passion. I will have to say that i am a little rusty with the film camera.
What i am wondering is do you have any examples of shutter speed and aperture settings that can revive my training? I think i will be able to pick it up but you know how things are when you have a friend that can say, "did you ever look at this?"
By the way, I still have my Pentax k1000 and still use my old lenses on the digital.
Have a look at some things i took a few weeks ago and let me know your thoughts on how i could get this same look with the 67.

Sorry for the long comment
Cheers, Jacob
Thank you so much to sharing your photos with us! So i can see your enthusiasm here when you talking about your family..that´s awesome! I still remember when my 8-year old boy was a little baby, and i´m happy to shoot many photos from him on 35mm film, cause a couple of years later my hdd crashed. Again: nice video and the best for you and your family. Greeting from europe
Thank you!
Nice video. I enjoyed seeing the output of the different cameras. Congratulations on the family news :)
Thank you!
Really enjoyed watching this! Great photos!
Thank you!
Awesome stuff man! Love the shots
Excellent, loved those pics, colors were great and the Pushed B+W were awesome.
I was getting withdrawal symptoms having none of your vids to watch :) keep up the great work = Respect
Thank you! Glad you enjoy the channel!
Matt, I would love to see the bookmaking video! And congratulations on the news!
Thank you!
Beautiful family thanks for sharing.
The Pentax 67ii is stunning.
Hey Matt. Great video sir. Your photos turned out great as always. They all did. your photos on the beach shooting 400 at box speed were excellent. Good example of why film is so awesome and fun to shoot. I normally shoot it at 1/2 box speed and expose for the shadows. Might have to try a roll at box speed. Your videos are inspiring so many man. Keep them coming. I know folks like to see "how to" videos too, like the one you did of the Contax 645 review. If more people can see how to do it, how easy it is, and the awesome results, I know it would be an inspiration to so many to start shooting film more often. Folks are craving the "how to" videos type stuff when it comes to shooting film. And congrats on the new little one coming your way!
Thank you! I'm thinking I'm gonna do something similar to with my Pentax 645n review.
as a local, it’s really neat seeing a vacationers perspective of CB. keep up the rad videos man
Thanks for sharing. Great to see sample images from these cameras. Do the photo book video!
Wow I've forgotten how clear film cab be-Great Shots! I'm a Pentax shooter(k20d and k3)
I've been inspired to look into the 67 or 67ii and hold off on K1
Thank you
man i just started watching your videos a couple days ago, so this was a fun one to come across as i live in wilmington and just took my pentax 645 down to fort fisher last night :)
Enjoyed seeing the comparisons from the different formats--nice pics. Please do the bookmaking video, I'm just starting down that path and would love to see your results. Thanks for your videos and congratulations!
Your 'casual, every-day, candid' shots are amazing dude!
Thank you!
Great video man. Looks like y'all had a great time.
Thanks, man! We had a blast.
I like very much the geometry of the photo of the bridge, on the book cover.
you rock! ... very nice photos mate! love your stuff!... just got a Pentax645 as well and i really like it!
yeah a video about the book would be really nice... cheers!
Thank you! Love the 645n.
Awesome pictures and corresponding explanation!
Thank you!
Matt you are a very serious photographer for sure.. but you already know that... Your expertise in Film and all that goes with it is amazing.. I hope you kept your home developing set up..i know you are big on buy and trade. However One day you may need to develop a roll "Right Now" ... and the equipment will be with you...Something to think about...
This work looks great, Matt! Thanks for sharing it!
I'm really looking forward to your thoughts on switching to the Sekonic 508. I just picked one up as well about a month ago for the same reason (spot metering B+W), and I'm loving it.
Also would love to hear you elaborate on your experience with getting all of your work developed by the FINDlab rather than doing some at home. So yeah, can't wait to see those videos!
PS: That shot of Nora peeking over the pillow is priceless :)
Beautiful family photos ! I’m really considering getting into medium format film. I know you do digital as well as film. Wanted to get your thoughts on why you shoot both and what you like about film. I really enjoy your episodes and love your work. Keep doing what your doing. Your a bit of a rarity in this realm being very down to earth and not hyperbolic. Great channel great work !
loved this one man!
That means a lot! Thanks!
my GOODNESS those b&w shots are unreal. also, please show us the book!!!!
always good matt!!
Thank you!
Congrats on the new baby boy on his way :)
Just found you today. Got 4 minutes into it and you mentioned home processing. Maybe you've done one in the nearly 3 years since you made it _but_ I'd love to hear your thoughts/experiences with DIY processing. I _think_ my local, dedicated photography store processes film but curious about DIY. I did a _little_ DIY for my old boss (passport photos, basic head shots for PR) and it was fun. Thanks!! Really looking forward to the rest of this video, comparing the bodies.
Great video! Congratulations on the baby boy! I had a double take when you mentioned your son's name, as it's near-identical to my own son's (Elliott James Arthur Lewis). Good choice of name ;)
Love these kind of videos
Glad to hear that!
And congrats for your boy, man!!!! :D
Thank you!
Matt your family is awesome, very beautiful shoots! Should you show us the photos of the nikon f100, something like a review could be great!
helpful thank you. love to see how the diff medium format photos turn out
Great video, love your style. I would really be interested in the video on putting together the book you mentioned.
Will do! Thanks!
Your photos are very inspiring. I'd love to see a video on how you made them into a book.
Really like the M6 shots. 35mm really does have a look to it..
I love pushing HP5 to 1600.
the book printing is awesome, please do a video about that!
Hey Matt! Could you advice on using the fm2, I've read that it has a meter that's prone to overexposure. Also, did you face any issue of the film advance getting jammed?? Thanks!
Hi Matt, It would be nice to see a pentax 645 review. I do like very much those photos with portra 400. Good job mate!!
It's definitely on the way! Love this camera.
Wonderful Video Matt, thank you!
What did you meter for with the M6 and did you use the built-in light meter?
I'd be 100% interested in an artifact uprising vid. I've used the Adorama service in the past, and had pretty good results, but I'm still a newb, experimenting with various mail in labs, printing services, etc.
Speaking of, maybe a comparison of various printing services? Amazon just announced their Prime thing, and Costco is pretty popular as well. Would be curious to see how they do compared to the more "boutique" services.
I really enjoyed going through your photos with you. Awesome work. Thanks for sharing these.
I have a question. You (and others) make reference to exposing for the shadows. How are you doing this with your Pentax 645n? I'm thinking spot meter mode with 2-3 stops exposure compensation to put the shadows in zone 2 or 3. I have the 'n, and I also have a Sekonic L-558 spotmeter. With the spotmeter, I usually measure darkest and brightest areas and use the meter's averaging function. In the 645n, I find the matrix meter to be pretty darn good, but I'm always interested in better technique (even after 40+ years seriously pursuing photography).
Thanks!
I did enjoy the video
hi there.
congrats great great video .
may you can tell me if new 55 f2.8 will work with AF on 645N /II??
Hi, Matt. Congrats on the, soon to be released, baby boy. You'll be interested to know that surfing on Lake Erie has been popular for years. There is a documentary on it called "Out of Place". Take care.
Never would have guessed! Thank you!
Nice photos. interested to hear more about the book printing & podcast
Thank you!
I still shoot with my Pentax 645 (non digital) camera, still an excellent camera to shoot with!
Great video…
Great videos man!
Does the 67ii have Focus confirmation like the 645 n system does?
Hi Matt, love the ones especially with the 645. When you say metered for the shadows do you mean spot meter with the Sekonic or the internal camera meter? Your results were really consistent.
Definitely interested in your pro/cons of lab vs home developing :)
Hi Matt, love your work and channel. In the Las Vegas video, you mentioned that you exposed for the shadows and rated the film a stop slower. What made you decide to rate at box speed this time around?
Awesome photos Matt! Especially the HP5 shots.
I've been shooting HP5 @ 1600 a lot lately as well, however, the labs I've gotten them processed at have all used Ilfotec DD for developing and the photos have come back with waaaay more grain than I would have hoped.
Have you (or anyone else reading this) ever experienced this with that particular developer? Would the Kodak D76 or something else be better?
I'd definitely like to hear about your change to using the Find Lab for your developing needs now. I used to develop a bit of black and white at my college but now that I'm not there I'm looking to other solutions so I want to hear your experience with the Lab.
beautiful photos, i really liked the m6 family photos, b&w really gives this feeling of "memories" and I agree that 1600 is a good way to use hp5 for general purpose or it's to flat (although I prefer Tri-x!)... Anyways, when you say you expose for the shadows do you mean you place shadows in zone 3 or you place them in zone 5 (overexposing)? thank you!
cool photos.. Which metering you use most to expose the shadow ? Is it incident or reflective metering ?
Hey Matt what that lighting torch like beams on the left on your desk >i remember asking you about it on other video before ... thanx ,,man
Great video, also sad to see that you are not completing the 366 challenge.
I'm current using the hp5 and also push it to 1600. Do you always go with the widest aperture? Basically all my pictures are at f2 or 1/1000. What are you ending up with?
Btw I'd love to see the video on pro and con of the finelab home develop thing :)
Cheers
Please make a vid about your book planning process. Thanks for sharing!
What camera did you use for this video? I love the quality of image
Hello Matt, congrats on the new baby. I would like to see a video on book printing.
Rick.
Thanks Rick! I'll be sure to do a video on that since a lot of people are interested.
Thanks Matt.
Hi Matt. Which site that you recommend for beginner like me to learn all about film. I've used film before in the 90's but mainly with point and shoot camera. Now I'm going to shoot hybrid digital and film and plan to choose slr film camera for more control. Thanks for your attention.
happiest man in the world, congtratulations
Luckiest! Thank you!
I just watched this video and I would definitely love to see a video on how you made the book
Definitely interested to hear your pros and cons of processing at home. I'm guessing you no longer do it because time is so scarce for you at the moment? I currently do all my BW at home and colour, I send off to have done.
