Thank you if you have subscribed to the channel and let me know if you'd be interested in me delving in more on how to build a photography channel on KZfaq?

I would 100% sign up for the course, especially being a fellow introvert and wanting to get into basic street photography. And also because of you, I’m saving up for the Ricoh camera you have. Thanks Jay, keep it up.

I love to watch Thomas Heatons old videos to see how much process he personally made from being absolute any with people around to be almost normal.

As a fellow introvert and generally anxious dude I've just found your channel and you are nailing it on so many levels. You've sold me on looking to try out a camera with a form factor like the one you use for all the reasons you described. Kudos from Brisbane, Aus.

🙌 Very helpful thanks Jay!

I can so relate to this. I’ve had my channel for 6 months and it has been a wonderful yet very challenging experience. I have not tried filming in public yet but would like to. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience. 😊

I've been following for some time and really enjoy your work. I think introverts offer great perspectives. Definitely keep doing what you're doing!

Yes, yes and yes….I love taking photos and I love Ricoh ❤ and I am going to Bali soon too

Keep going, you're doing well! I'm sure if you bite through the hard beginning you'll make it as a youtuber! :)

Totally relate to being really awkward on camera(still am) and great to see how you've grown with the channel. As I've mentioned before, love your authenticity and down to earth(ness). You'll do well mate, I'm sure of it!

I’d jump on that course! Even the one-on-one.

These sound like proper creative TOOLS! Thanks for the content.

You popped up in my recommendations this week and this video resonated soo much with me!!! After having two beautiful daughters I was able to pick up my channel again after some time and try my best to grind videos out as good as possible with the limited possibilities I have regarding skills on camera etc. I experienced everything you said and since English is my third language aka not mother tongue, I even have more of these „meditation“ pauses, since I have to figure out the sentence I want to communicate in English 😅 I don’t call myself a photographer, but it became a big hobbie of mine which led me to create my channel. I like to play around and use different cameras for the fun of it and share my experience on my channel. I got myself the pocket 3 for the exact reason you said. Small and removes the fear to have the the spot light on public spaces. But I have to put into use more, only recorded one POV with it yet 😀 Thank you so much for this video! Subbed! What I would like to hear from you would be the topic of negative comments. Although my channel is relatively small, hear and there people are coming in (when YT pushes it to further people) who just leave crap as comments, although the majority of my community is very positive. But as an introvert myself these negative comments just get me and stay in my head sometimes for several hours / days, although cognitively I know they are just dump haters, who have never created something of there own. Would love to hear from your experience and how you are handling it as an fellow introvert. Grettings from Germany! 😊

Very helpful, many thanks, still having a quite hard time to take photos of people on street, but will keep trying.

Hi Jay, definitely interested in your course! Another waiting list for a camera to get myself on, then! Although, didn’t wait too long for my x100vi

I agree with your comment on that society is weird sometimes. I had a Ricoh griii-x some time ago, and even my friends would say 'why do you only have just that tiny camera?' And they aren't even interested in photography! Eventually I sold it because I wanted to be able to change lenses, but I would love to come back to it in the future as a second camera. Your videos make me excited to go out and shoot, so keep up the great work🙌

thanks Jay for the video. Roman Fox loves the OSMO pocket 3. I want to get the ricoh gr3x too but it's backordered every where in the US

Really great video! Sound advice. I'd love to see a breakdown of how you're able to find yourself while out traveling? Is it just income from KZfaq and the zines or did you save up loads beforehand to give you a buffer etc?

Totally ageee with you. I shoot all my pro work on a Fuji XT5 and an X100 V. I just got a GoPro and I’m about to get a pocket 3. I’m going all small. Gave up big DSLR’s years ago. I’m 52 and my back hurts too much for a bag full of heavy gear. I shot my last family session entirely on my X100V and it was brilliant. Gonna start my KZfaq asap. PS: I also shoot on my Sony ZV1, and that camera is also a lovely stills camera.

Thank you for your sharing. Im working to establish my channel

Hi Jay, I am SO happy to have found your corner of KZfaq! Was starting to get discouraged that there wasn’t anyone out there that felt like me - I am the three things you said at the start 😊 Very interested in chatting with you in any capacity and my very first question would be ‘How do I balance being vulnerable as a beginner AND try to get clients at the same time?’ Faking it till you make it feels inauthentic. Thoughts??? Thanks and excuse me now while I consume your other content ❤😂

Congrats on the subs. Just curious how much KZfaq is paying you at the moment with 5k subs. I'm thinking of starting a small travel photography channel too. Thank u for the inspiration

Have you read 'Quiet' by Susan Cain? Maybe worth reading if you haven't :)

Do all photography KZfaqrs own a blue painters jacket?
