    Will deserves all the love on his RUclips channel! True photographer, has a great philosophy on the craft. He has an amazing knowledge on film photography. His low-fi feel fits his easy-going nature, you see it in his photos and the work itself. Beautiful images!

    Will has one of the most vibey channels out there. Imo his work is such a genuine tale of who he is... The music is nostalgic yet hypnotic, and he has a golden voice that is just entrancing. You will likely forget that you're watching a photography video. It's clear he puts a lot of soul into the videos. He certainly produces stellar images, that will slap you like a pastel dream. More importantly, he creates a experience unique to himself and his life in SA.
    Another banger to add to the vault. Truly exceptional work Bryan. You are honestly laying a lot of ground for this community with the series, and that makes it a hell of a lot stronger.
    Cheers!

    I was not expecting William S. to be featured in one of your videos but I am so glad that you made it! I started following him after I saw his work in a rural town of South Africa. I was moved by the portraits of young students dressed in uniforms in unpaved streets. There was something beautiful and at the same time unsettling in those pictures that didn't leave me indifferent.

    • @BryanBirks

      Portraits are great. I agree. But I’ve fallen in love with his colors and overall feel lately as well.

    So I kinda know about apartheid and all, but how common is the scene at 4:17? Kinda had me shocked he was saying "master"!
    As for William's photography and his way of going about it: really inspiring. Lots to learn from this guy, for sure!
