I've been creating KZread content for about 7 years alongside my commercial photography business and workshops. At the start of this year, I decided to go all in and just concentrate on KZread, landscapes and workshops. It's a little daunting leaving a commercial photography business that I had spent so many years building, but sometimes you've just got to follow your dreams. So a big thanks to everyone who supports and follows my work, I couldn't do this without you. 🙏 www.iworthphotos.com

Hi Ian, The reason lots of people watch your video's in my view is because you come across extremely well and seem like a really good bloke. you are very informative and genuine, in my view. I can't do what you do so just try to learn as much as I can at my old age. well done and thank you so much. Colin Devon uk....

Thanks Colin, that means a lot buddy, Devon is a wonderful part of the world 👍

I prefer the landscape shot, but only because the boat has more breathing room to it's right rather than being very close to the edge of the frame in the portrait shot. I'd be happy to have taken either! Congratulations on 50k subscribers Ian. I think what sets you (and Henry) apart from the crowd is that (imho) most of your viewers can relate to you as a person we'd be happy to bump into on a shoot, or in the bar! You both also show it how it is in real world situations that most of us could find ojurselves in if we put the effort in, there's nothing unattainable for the average person in your vlogs. You don't always get the light, sometimes it rains (and rains.....), and you show it how it is. Keep up the great work.

Hi Ian, your and Henry's channels are my two favourite photography channels. Always a treat to see you both working together. I've been following (subscribed) and liking (of course) for quite a while now but I dont think I've dropped a comment here to thank you before. I have invested in your composition e-book and for anyone else reading this : it is a great *investment*. I've learned a lot from both the e-book and following you here. I keep going back to both as one lesson learned seems to then open up more yet to learn or makes connections to other topics which suddenly make the penny drop. One day, I'd love to do a workshop. One day! As you were talking kit in the video, I'm also shooting Fuji, started off with the original X100 when my system camera was a Canon. After initially thinking I didn't need to invest in a new system, Fuji won me over. I soon ended up with an XPro 1 then 2 and then onto an X-H1 and now an X-T5 which I love using. Keep up your excellent work, having a new video of yours to watch is always something to look forward to and to learn from.

Unbelievable. I have the same camera and the same 3 lens. I got recently the 100-400 and the 80mm macro as I want to explore more of the intimate landscape side of things, but I truly love this kit. Great image quality, fantastic versatility and I dont feel the need at all for full frame. In fact if I ever feel the need for more, I would just probably go GFX route. Cheers and congrats for a fantastic channel. Its always a pleasure to see your videos, and not only for the cool gear you use :)

Hi Ian, always a pleasure to follow your videos. As many of your followers say, there are several excellent photographers on KZread, but your approach is unique and you remain yourself, focused on taking photos and nothing else, that's what I like. We learn a lot. My choice for the most beautiful photo of the boat is number 1. I tried to find the model of your L-Bracket which seems minimalist on the vertical side, a simple arca swiss square. Can you give me the model? Thank you and great job...I love it, from the province of Quebec, Canada.
