There were some excellent photos here…but I would have preferred less emphasis on requesting portraits more on working locations, scenes or layers etc.

What I liked most about this video was how much fun everyone seemed to have. Sometimes it seems people are so concerned about getting “the shot” that they forget that enjoying the process is just as important, if not more… 🤙🏼

You got that right my friend. Too many times we forget to have fun. That's why we got into photography in the first place.

Omg I can't believe you were in Brazil!! I'm a Brazilian, and found your channel yesterday, while I was searching for Rolleiflex content, cause I just bought one. And you can't imagine how nice it is to see my country on international channels! I hope you enjoyed your time in Brazil!

Just my observations, and not meant to be taken in a negative way. His shirt was very loud. A darker, or neutral colored shirt, might be a better choice. The only way he will become more comfortable, and quicker at street photography, is to get out there and do it every day, over and over, for many weeks at a time. During this period he will able to decide the types of shots he prefers, and the characters enjoys photographing. Something else that might help, is for him to consider creating a shot list, that he would like to practice, and write up those types of shots...then, go out and work that list, study them afterwards, and find out which style or type of shots he prefers. All of the nervousness, awkwardness, and lack of confidence will go away with more and more practice. Who knows, perhaps one day everyone will be watching his channel and not Frederik's. :-) All the best to the both of you! Cheers

Quite the opposite actually, bright, dorky colors will let people's guard done because it does not look threatening

I am shocked with how beautiful his photographs came out! So cool! After he lost his shyness and got close the pictures emerged. I am still learning and got really excited with it! Great channel Frederik. And by the way i´m brazilian and we speark portuguese here. Feels warm to hear you speaking.

Those images through windows are my favorites

Tip that works for me: Don't use zoom lenses for street photography. You will bring so much attention to you and the big ass zoom lens will intimidate people. With a smaller lens and camera you will blend in, people will perhaps think you're a tourist and they will not pay attention at all, it is great for candid photos.

This was all really great! I'd love to see more of these teacher/student videos. You're a great teacher!

I'm actually going to Lisbon in one week for the first time and Im bringing my camera to practice my photography. Thanks for the tips.

This was a fun vid. Above anything else I loved his attitude throughout the entire experience.

Thank you! Watching this gives me a lot more confidence to start shooting! I'm a really reserved person and going out interacting with the public has always been a challenge for me. but I've always been amazed at the emotions shown in portraits and the candidness of street photography, that I have always wanted to get into it. I love your genuine approach to this and your whole personality in general!

I agree!

the old woman having a tea patty with her cat was the cutest thing i've ever seen

Last year in October I've been to Lisbon, too. It's a great place for all kinds of photography. And I learned the hard way that manual zoon lenses are not good for street portraits. Prime lenses are the better choice.

When he was waiting for the airplane 🤣🤣 nice video, pretty fun!

As a first timer he did really well! Some of us learn better by having a mentor that explains in real time. I would say I learnt more in this video because Joen was asking questions or expressing difficulties that a beginner would have and you would explain that to him. As well as you setting limitations for Joen so he has to adjust his approach. Really insightful video!

Thankyou so much for the tips, what i learned is that angles are the most important things to shoot street potriats

Very cool! I was so surprised and happy to see two, or rather three of my favorite KZreadrs together in my favorite city in the world. I really think Joen did a great job. Well done

Its so awesome to see someone experience their first street photography high. And good job mixing up the styles and not just sticking to portraits. It can be hard to think differently like that on the fly but your friend picked it up quick.

Wow! Outstanding video! He did very well, and you did outstanding as an instructor. I really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing!

I haven't finished watching this yet. I love it!! ❤️ It makes me want to try out asking for Street portraits also to go along with my candid street style. Love this Frederick.

Love your street photography and now I'm learning as you teach others. Thanks!

It's been a while since I visited your channel, and I'm very happy to have found this video! My wife and I are sailors, and beginning to document our passages and the places we visit with video - and I am the inverse of John and his partner - I have decades of still photography experience, but video is completely new to me!

I really enjoyed the content of this video, the style and approach to encouraging someone to take photos outside their comfort zone or normal skill set was well done.

Both you guys did a great job. Just having fun with it, learning a little a long the way, not taking anything too serious, you guys look like a couple of photography buddies just hanging out. Keep up the videos! Fuji XT4 user here btw

I loved watching your process of teaching. I am not a newbie photographer but am definitely not comfortable with street photography. This was a perfect tutorial for that.

Was not expecting this crossover! Nice shots!

Great video! You did a good job teaching him. He picked up on it really well.

Lot of things to learn from this video and experience. Thanks for sharing that with us ! Unpopular opinion : Street portrait are not street photography, it's portrait photography in the street (as it's not catching a moment by chance or luck, it's staging and prepared)

Really enjoyed this video and it's premise. Street photography is definitely an art. I loosely separate it into two categories. First, street portraits, which for me are more difficult because you are up close and personal. And, you are more nervous trying to manage exposure/composition at the same time that you are interacting with a subject who is a stranger. Second, is the more candid style where you are more of a "fly on the wall". Question: When do you decide to include more of the environment in the image? I think that is necessary sometimes to give context and when the image isn't just about a single person/subject, rather it's about human experience and showing that in a scene. Thanks for a fun video!

Very nice vídeo! One of my favorites so far! A very usuful street photography class! Love to see more videos like this in future! Congrats!!!

Good teacher. Good student. The more you practice the more natural and fluent your thought process is in capturing the moment. Great vid. 📷😎👍👋

very inspiring again! love it

Súper cool! Lots of practical learning in this one. Gold.

Fascinating.

I think John had some great photos! He has good instincts. As a teacher you built his confidence and that allowed risks. Risks make great learning experiences. Well done, both of you.

Beautiful Lisboa. Very cool and awesome video. Inspires me to get out and do more street stuff

I think Joen did rather well! Good video, Frederik! Would love to see another one of these in the future.

Man I love this so much keep it up! LEARNING A WHOLE LOT

Thank for this great information. I will use this script to ask to take photos of people. It seems it would be simple but in my head I could think of the word to say. I'm planning a trip to Portugal so I will laso learn to ask in Portuguese. Obrigado!

I enjoy this video. Keep up with the good work!

This is the best way. ♥️

Great teaching with good advice. Photos are good too📷👍🏼

Great video Frederik! Hope you are still there on the 10th of June, big festival throughout the whole city.....with a lot of photo opportunities. thanks, take care.

Frederik thank you so much for your videos, they have been a huge inspiration in my own journey! If you are every in the US I would love to go shoot photos with you.

Really warm to you three 🙏 so really enjoyed watching this 👊 My favourite shots are the black and white of toktok driver and at 13:20 black and white of young man on steps, they’re both stunning shots I also struggle even after a year of street with combining composition with emotion I’m sure it’ll come with time 🙏

great video and tips!

Nice to walk with you ! With asking, a composition can be made, with candids it's more difficult, also nice to see so many variety in street photography including your style. Joen did a good job, beautiful photos he made ! Greetz from Amsterdam 😊

Super helpful video!!!

Great job! I really enjoyed this video.

Cool! Introductory video here in Lisbon. Obviously, people are not so open to connecting with strangers and having their photo taken as perhaps people in Mexico. So, you get some "nos" and a predictable "how much do you pay"! Try Porto

First timer watcher and new subscriber here. Excellent video. Teacher and student were great. Captured some really fantastic pics. Really liked the photo of the bar taken through the window. In my opinion, just needed to be shifted a little to the right to capture more of the bartender's hand in action and also to cut out the laptop on the left; which distracts a bit.

Nice video. I need to start and try not to be shy.

That was just awesome 😎

Good content exactly what I needed. Do you ever send the photos to the people afterward ?

Love this content. Makes me see so many of my own shortcomings. A linguistic tip, try saying "tomar" (take) rather than "tirar" (shoot or throw) when asking permission. It sounds less intimidating.

You’re an amazing instructor, Frederik! Joen’s photos look amazing for a “beginner”. Hehe. Would actually love to go on a street photo walk with you too, and gain some insight. Hahaha

Another great video... And sure, finance the framed print for him... Why not?!!!

I would be interested to here how you (or anyone) approaches subjects when you have a project in mind for a publication, a book or something similar When going up to people on the video I imagine it puts people in a different mindset (more at ease) when you say that you are simply learning or teaching photography, to if they where told it was being done for a book or project. As it may make people uncomfortable or simply say no more often Great video, really enjoyed it

I'm almost thinking "I'm practicing street photography" might be a more successful phrase than "I'm a street photographer" because people usually want to help out so that reframes the question from them being the focus to you.

Good both

"The Old Guy with the Cigarette". He wasn't old!😂

I know I should get a proper compact camera for Street photography one day. In the meantime, though, do you have any advice to doing street portraits with a smartphone, and getting the subjects to take you seriously when you ask them?

I think there is something you missed to teach him Its about his look !!! Because he was wearing a shirt filled with colors and it attracts the eyes of the other people on the streets Like for example you were wearing black and black shirt will not attract the eyes So I think it’s very important for any street photographer to look normal on the streets so he can blend in within the crowds I hope that you agree with me … Thank You for the video And please try to shoot more KZread videos since it’s summer We do love your photography videos …

Frame within a frame is called subframing

I guess it also depends where you photograph? Obviously, you can take good photographs in any city/place….but your personality affects it? For example, I get shy trying to photograph people on the street. When I lived in NY (and I don’t mean this in a cliche way)… people don’t stare at you as much for having a camera. Here in Chicago…if I’m walking down the street with my camera…everyone takes a double look or stares a lil longer & I can’t tell if that’s a good/bad thing - I’m missing my opportunity lol Certainly, holding a camera in Chicago makes me more shy, but people stopping and/or staring a bit longer might be good? 😅

Just a personal tip, if you intend to do candid photography try to dress in bland incospicuous colored clothing. Brightly colored clothing draws attention.
