I never wanted to push my kids to take up the same interests as me. But he’s always asking to play with my camera and it makes my heart melt 🥹 - this is the true definition of Fujifam ☺️

Camera brands don't owe me shit, but it would be cool to be recognized for putting so many people onto the X100 series cameras on YouTube...😔

Lumix shooters - why does video mode set to af-s not lock my af? It still changes when I point my camera to different subjects.

Seriously, getting tired of this type of shit. I won’t ever stop making videos, but really really tired of people thinking it’s as simple as drinking water.

Stop introducing yourself in the beginning of your content. No one really cares. Get to the good stuff fast.

This all started as a way for me to document my journey switching over to a new camera system. 5 years later, we’re hitting 50K on YouTube, teaching 100K+ on IG, and I’ve turned photography into my full-time career.

Me as a young editor: “I need to stay up late to finish this.” Me as an older editor: “I’ll edit better after a good night’s sleep.”

When you get a text from your besties at @moment that a gift is on the way 🥹. No brand supports the creator community like Moment does 🫶🏽

You are not an expert at anything except being yourself. For which you are world class. No one does you better than you when you are being true.

Bonus tip: add a high level outline of your video takeaways to your IG reels caption. Add full video link to first comment of YouTube shorts. Post a jarring caption for TikTok to maximize arguments/engagement.

Film your YouTube video intro in 4k+ or open gate. Fast paced edit with royalty free music. Keep it under 1 minute or less. This does 2 things (1) gives a highly engaging intro for better YouTube retention (2) allows you to cross post the intro on all short form platforms.

Value your audience building skills. When a brand says “it’s not too much effort to cross post the same reel to YouTube & TikTok”, creators CAN charge for cross-posting. Meta, TikTok, & YouTube don’t allow you to pay for 1 ad that can be posted on 3 platforms. Neither should we.

New video is live! After making a color recipe, I had to make a B&W film simulation to pair with it: https://t.co/rKfhUwd5aq

I just got turned down for a brand partnership with a camera brand for having too diverse of an audience demographic %. Interesting and enlightening.

48K+ subs. 5M+ views. And finally got a video to break 200K views (and it happened in less than a month of publishing). I’ve had many instances when I wanted to give up on my channel, but glad I stuck it out.
