We've all watched the work you put in to get here and watching it pay off through these assignments is super inspiring!

I have to say I enjoyed this video a lot. It is refreshing to see a photographer share actual work they have done for assignments. So many social media shooters live in their little bubble and have no idea what it is like to shoot for someone else that is paying.

That first silhouette shot is stunning

Love the closing thoughts on the shit-talking, etc. I've seen a KZfaqr be so incredibly overly combatant in their own comments section simply because people disagree with their spicy, "real" takes on things and it blows my mind.

Not being an asshole online is the best advice (besides staying consistent with your work) that you can take. I was with you my friend, and I lost some respect of people who I supported and admired over it, regardless of how small or petty it was. There are people who I’ve never even talked to who will not give me the time of day because someone in their circle said I was an asshole. You can look at any number of brands or businesses and you’ll see that the community is not that big. What you say online sticks with you and even the smallest interactions matter. I’m so proud of you though, and I have definitely learned from your example whether that’s just starting a KZfaq or trying to be less negative online.

45 min for everything🤯 jeez you are amazing!👏 I’d panic if I had only 45min for shooting (especially with 4x5!)😅

You’re becoming a pretty legit photographer. I would say these kind of assignments take out the best of you in terms of results. Follow the rabbit

Great job. I saw the story online. Your hard work has served as an inspiration for many, myself included, and you deserve the many fruits of your labor.

As an architectural photographer, I have learned to ask if a facility will have crews on hand to "help me" with lights or moving things around. The first time it happened to me, I was quite surprised because I was so used to doing all the work by myself.

These are amazing man! Appreciate the vulnerability about how you used to be and how you’ve grown past shit talking. I need to prepare way more 😅

I have stared at 14:01 and 14:04 for no less than 10 minutes. Wow! I don't know what else to say.

Been awesome to watch these assignments start to roll in and work into your videos. Feels like just the beginning.

Thank you for taking us to school with your mastery of light and framing!

Awesome dude! I love how you break down the process and your thoughts as you're going through the day!

Excellent insight into this photo shoot mate ...

It's such a good thing you had the courage to talk about the tabu of the sh*t talkers! That's important! Nice job!

I too would be proud of that work. Mission success!

Congratulations! The shot came out clean! 👍🏾

You are a good photographer.

These are exceptional. I particularly love the motion blur with the guitar in the background, something really catching about that.

Really wonderful to see your honesty, your thought process, and your photos. Thanks for sharing.

wow loved the images!, im glad Im not the only one who's never heard of the gentleman lol. Thanks for your videos Bryan!. Happy Thanks Giving.

You've absolutely smashed this assignment Bryan, from prep to execution!

Quite an interesting experience. Glad to see that you have come this far.

Beautiful Art!

This is so inspiring, Bryan. Great work!

That was awesome. Those photos came out so good! And great advice.

Once again I learned so much from your video. Thank you!

Really nice work & narrative!

Great shots, and nice retelling of your process. Wishing you continued success!

what a better way to finish my day :) awesome photos like always. That portrait in the lounge is just gold

Love that rope silhouette!

Thank you for this insightful video Bryan! It’s amazing to see how those images came out. Wonderful work. Hope to see more of these kind of videos in the future. It’s always inspiring!

Really great work, I love the dancing shots and the one in the lobby as well❤

congrats, great to see you taking these amazing shots and couldn’t agree more: communicate and don’t be an ass. I would add one: make everyone around feel valued so they become part of your project.

You did a really incredible job with this work, I’m so glad to see you succeeding!!

Really happy for you getting more assignments, and getting to incorporate your 4x5 work. Great video, with sage advice.

Congratulations. Just superb images. Great mix of action, portraits and behind the scenes relaxes shots. Love the 4x5 portraits in the bar. Another step closer to that Pulitzer. Well done, that man.

You're talented and you've been working really hard to perfect your craft. I'm so happy you got this opportunity and you definitely made the most out of it. Now just don't stop and keep going!

Congratulations Bryan, it’s been a pleasure to follow your journey in the industry. Here’s to more assignments coming your way!

Literally just about to hit the hay and did the "ahhh sure I'll check youtube for a sec..." and this delight came up! Really great seeing amazing things coming your way after all the hard work you've been doing!!!

Dude great work! Seems like this was a fun project, I bet more fun stuff coming your way!

Killer work man!

U killed it! 🔥🔥🔥

Wow... photos are stunning!

Tremendous images - I’m sure they’ll offer you more commissions!!

Very nice work!

Great work Bryan. The lounge shot also really pops, because he's dressed in clothing suitable for the period. I love Art-Deco interiors and the guy himself is really cool too.

Great stuff❤

Stage/events are hard to get that right angle and not be in peoples way. Did a solid job on it!

Fantastic

good advice, particularly the last bit about being an asshole..

Just wondering what digital camera you’re using for this work. Beautiful Photos. Film and digital. You are inspiring.

Great work - I have had issues shooting in theaters with union people telling me that I could not place strobes on a stand on the floor - it's a union job! Wondering if you had that issue at all for the portrait work...

👍

hey! Will there be any more analog artisans stuff in the future?

What usage rights did they want to license?

Was the performance venue near to you or did you have to travel?

Merci !
