I am an independent photographer based in Vancouver, British Columbia. My videos include explorations of the creative process, behind the scenes on photoshoots, various social issues related to photography, gear reviews, and collaborations with other creatives. I love making bold and creative images and I am working hard to take my photography to the next level.

This was the kind of photography I'm into but I've lost it I can rember I used to be an tumbler user now it make sense
Wow, such a smart, gorgeous woman. Really great video!
necessary, intelligent, passionate, and well-presented. thank you. respect woman, hire women.
Thank you so much, im looking this for my small business 😆
@@hoaiphongmap aye hit me up haha
nds ago I clicked in to learn what Tumblr photography is all about.. end up discovering that your music choices are entirely the same as mine
I actually prefer Fuji 400 the most
The disposable camera, in the old days are actually reused and recycled by manufacturers. There is a video on KZread which I no longer could find shows how Fujifilm factory reuses them. Fujifilm would go to developers to collect crates of empty cameras and bring it back to the factory. The camera is design modularity so the case, internal structure, battery, flash, circuit board, lens all comes off. The flash, circuit board and lens are tested to see if they are fit for reuse. After the test lens are washed, then the flash, board and lens are fitted with new structure, battery, case, film, then wrapped again with the labels and then packaged to be sold again. The most amazing part is that this process is all *fully automatic* on assembly lines. Nowadays the volume just doesn’t meet the cost to transport and maintain factories to reuse the cameras.
The "which is Tumblr" bit was striking! Loved that, and got them all right, too. Who knew. Thanks! I have a strong feeling that the Tumblr style descends from same-age female Japanese fans of Rinko Kawauchi. She was already a big deal in the trendy Minato shops around 2002, in the last days of Japanese photo magazines (very different from western ones... and many completely gone now)
Did you mean 2004?
I came across this video because it’s by one of the few women I’ve found posting photography videos. What you say here is so clear and rational I hope you get through to at least some men. I wish there were more photo videos by women.
A picture I took of hot Cheetos got 35k notes on Tumblr. It wasn't even good, but there weren't very many of those on the website.
Being a purist photographer sounds very dry and boring. Do they even take photos or are they just judging those who do and have fun with it?
Fully ai generated images are digital art. Using ai to add elements to an existing photo goes to the photo editing category I guess... The "memories are photos" is a very poetic approach but until now we cannot share or print our memories 😝 so that's something to be decided in the future 😁
Is aurora 800 dx coded?
I found your comparison of tumblr vs instagram very fascinating. It seems to me that tumblr image curation hinges very much on removing anything and everything that confronts you with your own reality. You related it to financial restrictions, like not being able to attend this specific restaurant. I think you could go further that the image must not be too real. If it is too real, you have to confront your own mediocrity. You are no longer yearning, you are cut off. On Instagram, the solution to the same problem is very different. Here you get to fully embrace your own sense of inferiority. Perfectly curated lifestyles show you that maybe you don't have what it takes, but at least you get to believe in the fact that there are people who have made it and have achieved that perfect life. And maybe you can get some second hand enjoyment from that?
The party I hated tumblr for was all those pictures referring to self harm. Like razor blades or noose knot or pills, but I agree they were collected as collages for this emo style, and I would have never consider it art, and always thought it was just bored and attention seeking teenagers, but in some way time proved it also tells a story of a generation
Loved this, and totally agree with all your points. Thank you for the nostalgic joy
Lifestyle snap photography was real on tumblr. It was like this back since 2009 even. Great vibe photography. 👌
Oh I loved this video so much!! I used tumblr a lot and, honestly, love vibey images to this day, which is now making me pause and wonder if I love them because I was a tumblr person and it feels a little nostalgic now? Anywho, great video (again) I'm off to go make some aesthetic art now 😅
"you can always tell!" nope, I can't. I haven't seen tumblr images before so I can't tell. I like your explanation 1. non-documentary, 2. incomplete. I just looked at tumblr's "explore" feature to see examples, and I realize why I haven't seen tumblr images before: after letting me see 5 images, tumblr require me to login, but I don't have an account. The 5 images that it showed did not seem to meet your criteria. I wonder if you idea of "a tumblr image" is no longer accurate for current imagery, or maybe if it's more of an impression from marketing and isn't really a statistical representation of the images that are actually there.
Tumblr is like the photo centered child of emo/grunge/goth kids myspace/ blog pages from the 00's. Thats what the images remind me of. An already nostalgic look, like a mix of stock photos and an old music zine, or images on the lyric pamphlets that came with your cds in the 90's-00's. So now we have nostalgia for nostalgia
it was interesting and enjoybale. been a tumblr user since 2010, scrolling through my personnal page is like going back in time, wich is somehow pretty precious for me :)
Very interesting analysis, Yvonne! Keep up the good work! A hug from Italy.
Oh Tumblr! I had a few Tumblr blogs! But what defined my time on Tumblr was tied to the Regency era, but less Bridgerton, more wool, muskets, and Napoleon! But I saw a whole pile filled with images like that and had a few friends who had their Tumblrs setup mostly Pale or Grunge because of Urban Exploration.
this backrounds makes me go nuts... why isn't the alignment straight? :(
Lmao when I put the pictures on the wall I didn't use a measuring tape, so the whole wall is slightly off. I don't mind it though 🤷♀️
cracking up saturation on my monitor.
Anyone photographers here long time users of tumblr? or recently went back to it? comment your blog name, let's connect.
People tend to take snapshots or photos of old cars because the design elements stand out from knowing about how things change over time. And there's a difference with taking a snapshot of the car and looking for design elements to isolate in a picture when you're trying to make a photograph. Like with architecture, you don't usually take a picture of the whole building. But in regards to film, one thing I see over and over is that people who "discover" film photography is that they take snapshots, but think because it's done on film and not digital, it automatically elevates because it is film. Right along with "film forces you to slow down....". When all you have to do is just still use your digital camera and just take one picture at a time. No need for pretentiousness.
I super-guilty of the coffee pic, almost always a pinhole selfie of me in a cafe with a coffee in the foreground. Pinhole photos take 5 to 10 mins (average indoor light), .Having a coffee is when I'm most often 1) sat still 2) with 10 mins to spare and 3) with my camera to hand. So it's a situational thing.
One of the major tumblr trends I didn’t like then, and still don’t now, is making all the shadows that should be black, gray. Some people still do it. Just makes the photos look underexposed, bland and ugly 😅 (to me!)
Wonder if you remember ffffound!
I've actually gone back to tumblr recently, feels quieter and more sane than any other media
35 over here :D
spot on analysis on tumblr photography.. only thing i have to add is in my experience the tumblr community absolutely rewarded "good" photography also.. the post of mine that would go viral where def the ones i felt where my best photographs shot on my dslr but u made me realize i was def leaning into that incomplete romanticized vibe. i credit tumblr for almost single handedly launching whatever music career i had solely off of pictures beats and vibes lol - beautiful lou (producer for a$ap rocky, kitty pryde, lil b, [adult swim] etc)
This brings back memories, I used to save pictures/images from tumblr daily. I'm so glad I found your vid.
People being nostalgic about 2014 is more painful than I anticipated
Nostalgic about nostalgia. Late stage capitalism become very meta
Gosh I’m happy I never used tumblr. 😂
The mentally ill teenagers had a cold grasp on trends on tumblr. RIP the old tumblr era.
0:12 I'm a 36-yr old film-guy (only recently film-ed) and tumblr was, for me, instagram before instagram for me (to copy artsilva's comment below). Although I used it more like a blog back then...
I'm 39 and never used Tumblr.
that's because you weren't a teen during its heyday.
Tumblr was the Instagram before Instagram but without the low-res filtering and censorship. Content-wise Both can be the same, there are no rules [outside of certain censorships] of what images you post on either platform. Any user can build and curate their Tumblr and/or IG any way they see fit. I have used both in the same way. VSCO was short lived but like you said, aesthetically via filter sets is what is the difference of default imaging in VSCO and IG. I think it comes down to the majority of what the "photographers" choose to use for their work, thus giving the [enter media site name here] it's more common "look"..
You have an amazing mind. Your research, writing, and presentation skills really keep me engaged. Additionally, this essay could well be a research topic for a PhD dissertation. Thank you for explaining and analyzing this topic.
Thank you so much! You flatter me! I certainly had a fun time with the research for this one- especially finding all the photos!
congrats on your first sponsor! also, as a mentally ill former teenager on tumblr in 2014, you perfectly described vibe
“Real” photographers don’t know what they’re missing 😂 Love to see the impact of VSCO called out!
Hahaha it was a whole mood for a MINUTE
Interesting, kinda makes sense my early photos in instagram are the "Tumblr" aesthetic.
Wow, it's midnight and I've just listened to a 20 min monologue about Tumblr and I have never heard about it before. So congrats Yvonne, I think the presentation was engaging...
Yvonne’s enthusiasm is both addictive and kind of draining, but in a nice way. I wish I could have that hyper thang going on. Don’t think I ever had it. Too chilled 🙄🤣📸
Woo, Congrats on your first sponsor!
Aye thank you!!
Very informative 👍🏽
really interesting insights and analysis, Yvonne - love it - keep those videos coming!
@@chrisvlachopoulos7565 aye thank you!
the only thing I used tumblr for in 2014 was looking at chubby girls buttholes
