  1. What i like the most is that i have the same gear as mark which is : canon 550d and a 1.8 lens. mark gets brilliant pics from his camera, and he shows how and what settings he used. now i am getting good results by learning from you. thanks and keep up the great work.

  2. Hey, I'd like to know where you got that old-looking house from when you're talking about the windows in the last photos.. Do you have any tips on finding old houses like that or shall I just go around and ask an owner of an old house? xD

    And I'd like to know what angle YOU think is the best for this kind of theme?

  3. I've been trying to put into words this look. Finally i have the answer. All the other videos talk about editing, however this tackles how it happens and talks about shadows . I feel so happy now i know. I've taken cinematic shots and thing how did i do it? thank you thank you. Also you are very photogenic and a great speaker.

  4. You know what……. Some places are way more easy to photograph than others..
    I feel like making photos in Brazil, where the cities are new with no vintage streets or castles or anything cinematic are like have a 100kg camera to take photos.
    Because here it's all so new and boring…  and modern…… and not romatnic AT ALL.
    I use to spend more time trying to find nice locations than in the photography actually.. AND THE SUN… THIS STUPID STAR is always over my head in here.. and the sunset is so short, it's about 15min. of sunset light. 
    I use to travel to Norway and when i am there everything i see is like a stage specially made for photography. The sunset light on the summer can belong for 6 hours…
    Google for photo in Brazil and you will find the most ugly photos EVER… not because we are bad phtoographers or because the camera is different.
    Peopel here study hard and buy very expensive equipment.. but it's much more hard to make photos in those situations.
    I remamber discussing about "HAS MAN WENT TO THE MOON OR NOT" and I though and said: NO.. THEY DIDN'T… because I know how hard it is take photos on a difcult situation and I can't belive they took so many good photos, so well framed… in so short time with a camera attached at they chest!!! on a place no one has EVER photograph before to have a tip about setup the camera.
    So… I am saying that because I wach your videos and I really envy the possibility of go to the street and find so many places nice to take photos (That's the only thing I envy.. on all the other things I love live in Brazil)..
    We have many beautiful places and beautiful people… but I challenge anyone to come here and make stunning photos as they can do on places far from the tropics.
    I wathed all this video thinking about that.
    But I am brazilian.. I never give up… And more photos will continue coming from my camera!

  5. I love the green shot. Your skin looks so beautiful and porcelain as you said. Was that because of the light or did the post processing give that look. Oh and the first shot would have been epic if you were looking to the left and down, more side profile but you needed something different to wear other than that huge coat. Of course in my humble opinion.
