    I've been following you both for a few years and I have learned and applied so many of your insights into my own photography work. Seeing another Northern Indiana kid thriving in LA really makes me appreciate where I came from and where I'm going - also a little less alone. You're both incredible and I know everyone else down here in the comments appreciates and values you both to no end. I always look forward to your videos and can't wait for the next one!

    you guys were the first photography channel I watched on RUclips and to this day, you are still my favourite. especially as English is not my first language, but German, I love how you break down even more complicated topics. Also the confidence you gave me as a photographer, but also as a 'model'. I suffer from a cleft lip and palate (I think that's what you call it) and never wanted my portrait taken. But as I saw how beautifully you captured each individual, I realized that I could still look great in photos. And btw, I would love to see a video on how to get more "vogue" and high fashion looking "street" photography (that urban vibe), something I never seem to get conveyed in my shots. Like styling, poses, angles, everything that goes with the topic and this specific look. thanks for helping me out, guys. seriously. perhaps one day I will run into you, I hope you are okay with random compliments from a stranger.

    I wanted to THANK YOU for your approach to sharing your knowledge of this wonderful medium. I find myself returning to rewatch many of your videos as I apply myself to improving my skills as an artist and photographer. Your videos not only give me a framework for thinking through the technical aspects of photography, they work from the basic presupposition that the technical skills are always to be employed in helping me and even pushing me to express my own personal creativity and finding my unique artistic voice.

    • @MangoStreet
      @MangoStreet  4 года назад +6

      i'm glad we could help where your classes could not!
      1) take a break
      2) find creative sources to inspire you. music, film, tv, comedy, books, whatever
      3) try shooting a genre of photography you never have before

    • @WildEmpress
      @WildEmpress 4 года назад +3

      My favorite way to get out of creative block is to try a completely new activity...so like trying needle felting or pour painting. Something random, I don't know about others but creative block for me happens when I have an expectation of myself to make something good...so by being a beginner, totally fresh to something it dissolves that expectation and then once I break it I can get back to photos

  • @ginnylea5023
    @ginnylea5023 4 года назад

    this was so refreshing. I rely very heavily on myself for photos, simply because I pretty much always have access to myself. And I love the immediate touch on how so many people are shooting the same things in the same spots, I hate that I feel it could be partially blamed on "influencer" culture and the want to be insta famous rather than a genuine love for the photos. Y'all really out here keeping it so real, inspired.

    Loved the video! Came in perfect timing as I will be taking self-portraits in my photography class tomorrow. How do you get a good focus on the subject when taking self portraits? Is it possible with manual focus?
    Also, do you have any recommendations for light tripods that are somewhat affordable? Thanks so much!

    • @MangoStreet
      @MangoStreet  4 года назад +7

      i placed the prop where i would stand, manually focused on it, and then stood in that exact spot. i also wasn’t shooting wide open, so there was room for error 🤝

    • @WildEmpress
      @WildEmpress 4 года назад

      I usually use the auto focus on my self portraits but I agree, if I had to use manual focus I would set something in the spot I intend to stand to set the focus

    • @MangoStreet
      @MangoStreet  4 года назад

    Hey, Mango street! I used to take a lot of photos and I wanted photography to become my main source of income. I live alone and life usually has other things in its book, so I had to sell my trusty Canon 6D and a bunch of lenses so I could have money to eat that month. It brought me to such a dark and negative place in my mind and life and I am still affected by that. Everything I learned about photography from what is shutter speed and ISO to making Timelapses was via content creators like you - here on RUclips. I just wanted to say many of us appreciate that you exist and provide for us your own knowledge and experiences. While I don't shoot anymore, I always watch your vids, they are exceptionally well thought and edited. Cheers from a small European country of Serbia and keep on rocking! :)

    Few questions regarding the BMPCC6K:
    1. When color correcting/grading footage from the BMPCC6K, do you stick to Premier or jump into Resolve?
    2. How does editing the raw video footage from the BMPCC6K compare to editing raw photos from say a DSLR?
    3. Is there anything about the BMPCC6K that you wish it was better at? Specific features you wish it had?
    Thanks for the crazy good content!

    Idk how to say this but you guys are super cool and you've really inspired me. Since watching you guys I've really tried to think outside the box and be unique with my photos, even though my friends don't really get it and think it's weird 😅

    Recently did a self-portrait shoot- a “movie still” just walking down the street, hands in pockets, looking up at the last second like something caught my attention- took close to 300 tries over two sessions to capture the perfect mid-stride step, most natural expression but I got the perfect shot!- bonus tip #3 be prepared to shamelessly do hundreds of takes to get the shot you’re after!

    Thanks for the inspiration! I hate getting in front of the lens and always used the excuse that I never have anyone to take my picture. NO EXCUSES NOW! Thanks for sharing and putting the emphasis on finding your own voice and style! Great message!

    Don't know if you guys made a video on this or not but you should definitely make a video on using reflectors. Many people like myself would probably love to see the different uses and advantages of them. Thanks! Love the vids!

    Love it. Inspired to try self portrait and more outside the box. Do you feel different do it all your self then some on else plan the shot? What to you think subjectively is better?

    • @MangoStreet
      @MangoStreet  4 года назад

      sorry, not 100% certain what you're asking, but we like planning out the shoots ourselves so that it'll be in the style and mood that we enjoy shooting in the most.
