I dont know how this channel found its way into my algorithm, but I LOVE these videos. Spreading goodness and beauty in the world. Stay awesome everyone.
@modelstrangers, I hope you see this, I have commented on this before. The like/thumbs up button on your channel doesn't seem to be working. There is never a number displayed, though I can see from all the appreciative comments that lots of people like your videos. Have you any idea why the thumbs up is not functioning?
@@michelez715 TH-cam either gave them a choice to show the number of thumbs up, or youtube took it away. I can't remember what I read, but I, too, noticed it quite a while ago.
@@michelez715 Thanks for letting me know about this. I've just had a quick check of the analytics and it seems people do seem to be able to like this video and my others. Are you sure it may not be a problem on your end? TH-cam stopped the public display of likes / dislikes a while ago, but you should still be able to like / dislike any individual video. Let me know if the problem continues for you. Thank you!
Lovely young lady. If you are reading this Alex, give yourself the same grace that you give others. Embrace your beauty and your value as a delightful and charming person.
Hope Alex finds these photographs and gets a chance to see how truly beautiful a person she is. Thank you for finding that special part of Alex. 💛Blessed Be.
beautiful! I'm not religious myself but it's good to hear when people can gain a community and a healthier and more positive mindset from finding a faith that suits them!
My spouse also didn't like any photos that they were in. Until they suddenly did (sometimes). But it takes a really good photograph to make someone get over the preconception that their image is, as they say "Brr. Horrible!". :) I think you're doing a good job helping people realise this, Christopher.
What a truly beautiful and amazing young woman … things happen for a reason, I think there is always a reason, the outcome can be the doh g of yourself, someone else or aggregation of many sources the old cause and effect is so important to understand. But this is no excuse to judge others and any judgement we apply to ourself should be honest but true and not overly critical but accept ourselves for who we are but like I say, be honest. I believe this young lady will have a wonderful future and I wish her all the very best and such beautiful photographs at the end, to the lady in question, and this applies to me too, we need to learn to love ourselves ❤ Blessings, kindness and love to Chris and the lady in the video and everyone else who is watching let’s make the world a better place ❤❤
Well done Alex and great that you found the comfort you needed at church. I tried turning to the church after a horrible break up but just found myself crying in the pews! Five years on I can go to church and more or less keep calm so that's progress. I wish I could find faith, some sort of oblivion.
Thank you. I do have faith in myself it's faith in others that has been damaged but I can't force anyone to love me. It was quite frightening to see the big turnaround in my partner and I lost my home in the process, I got half of the value of it to find somewhere inexpensive to live alone. It was all a big shock and upheaval. The church seemed to offer love and that was heartbreaking too because it's not the sort of love you can physically embrace. It's there but you can't touch it.@@StepbyStepbyMiriam
💙Alex, It was suggested to me, that a congregation (of a church) gather to support those who may lack the strength to stand alone. I have always found this idea beautiful! It sounds as if you may have found such a place💙
@@Scapestoat Excellent thought/question. Having grown up in a family where I bore the weight (of the world) as a child, I find sharing my burden with others difficult even confusing. The anonymity or maybe the supposed unconditional love of a congregation/community is very hopeful to me. Hopeful that they might support me even when I lack the skills/can not ask for their help.
@@dudley8671 I come from a similar childhood, at least as far as the carrying more than a child should have. So I know that asking for help is the hardest thing in the world. I am not religious, so I an unlikely to join a church community, but I can tell you that any community doesn't need you to have specific skills or has high expectations. They merely expect you to be forth-right and try to do your best. The concept of "pay it forward" is also a part of a healthy community. (as in, don't pay back kindness, but pay it forward - as in, be kind to someone else in the future, who is in need of it) I'm interested in hearing your thoughts around the concept of "not being strong enough". In my head, if someone else calls me "not strong enough", my defences go up. And I feel insulted. Though I know that other perspectives exist.. :)
So sad that she wouldn't look at the pictures. Your pictures are always so well done and seem to capture your subjects' inner spirits. She is so beautiful. I hope she learns to appreciate her beauty. It has taken me 70+ years to really like photos of myself. Hopefully she will make that journey sooner.
My sister, the Lord has blessed you with this opportunity to testify of your faith, and you honoured the Creator God beautifully. Keep going! ❤ from New Zealand 🇳🇿
lovely channel ......Christopher can I ask please about your equipment and lens set up etc. I have a Nikon 700 and a decent lens but its always on auto. Id like to be able to blur out the background and get that sharpness that you get. I dont know how you decide who to stop and photograph but do you always get a positive reaction or do sometimes people walk away or even worse be nasty to you.? well done
This video actually is a bit suspicious. I've been on a fence about it before, but this seals it for me. The way the woman lifts her head INSTANTLY, as the guy makes any sound, like she was ready for it. Also, we all know from personal experience, when we are looking at something on the phone, there is always that slight ½ of a second delay ,before you lift your head like that. If she was in fear for her life, her reaction would make sense. You might have some real videos on this channel, but this one certainly is staged. What a bummer.
Nothing is staged on this channel. I mostly do my approaches in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It’s a small place. Some of the people that I’ve discovered have went viral on Instagram and had some press attention. If I were to stage even one encounter, it would require a conspiracy of silence that would keep me in a state of anxiety. I take this seriously, and my integrity depends on playing fair.
@@modelstrangersI wanted to ask where the location is because it's extraordinary beauty!! So lush and vibrant!!! I always feel honored when anyone talks with me! I never for a moment thought these were staged. I find them really uplifting! Thank You so much for doing this!
You captured her soulful fairy softness!
Thank you
I thought the same thing!!! 🧚🌸💞💖So lovely!
@RichSalles SO nice to meet a fairy sensitive!

Glad you found this channel! Hope you stick around and continue to enjoy what I do.

Yup. I just found my first Model Stranger in my feed. Such a great idea! My kind of “social media.” 😉
Lovely young lady. If you are reading this Alex, give yourself the same grace that you give others. Embrace your beauty and your value as a delightful and charming person.
Another great video. Alex does underestimate herself as she looks so good in photographs.
Alex is very beautiful. Wising her a wonderful life and a very blessed spiritual journey.
awww, that is lovely. Another meaningful encounter that connects us all. You've found a great path, Chris. I'm glad to be riding along with you.
Hope Alex finds these photographs and gets a chance to see how truly beautiful a person she is. Thank you for finding that special part of Alex. 💛Blessed Be.
These videos warm my heart and brighten my day. ❤
You are so respectful and kind when reassuring "the models" of the day. We feel somehow part of the conversation😇
beautiful! I'm not religious myself but it's good to hear when people can gain a community and a healthier and more positive mindset from finding a faith that suits them!
Also beautiful and so eloquently said❤
Alex is beautiful inside and out. God Bless her x
What a beautiful woman
The photos in your videos are the icing on the cake of a great encounter. So glad I found this channel.
Exactly what I was thinking.
Same!
Bless her,hope she finds happiness and peace of mind.
It makes me sad that she cannot see the beauty we see. Perhaps one day she will; it sounds as if she is healing so maybe that will help.
that was beautiful in every way
My spouse also didn't like any photos that they were in.
Until they suddenly did (sometimes). But it takes a really good photograph to make someone get over the preconception that their image is, as they say "Brr. Horrible!". :)
I think you're doing a good job helping people realise this, Christopher.
Hope Alex got to see the beautiful person in these photos ❤❤❤❤
ALEX you are a WINNER. I love Art its GREAT for healing.
Shes just Beautiful..💪🏽🕊🦋💙🙏🏽
She is so beautiful...and doesn't know it.
she is angelic!
Ohhhh, Alex, you are sooooo much more photogenic and beautiful than you believe of yourself.
Indeed she is!!!
What a wonderful Vibe! Her voice shows she is very caring.
What sort of IDIOT would walk away from this lovely angel of a person...???
She looks like she stepped out of a Pre-Raphaelite Painting.

You should have faith in yourself Rachel. You are unique. There is not another person in the world that is exactly like you!

💙Alex, It was suggested to me, that a congregation (of a church) gather to support those who may lack the strength to stand alone. I have always found this idea beautiful! It sounds as if you may have found such a place💙
Is it a lack of strength, or the realisation that life is more enjoyable when you don't bear the weight of the world on your shoulders alone?
@@Scapestoat Excellent thought/question. Having grown up in a family where I bore the weight (of the world) as a child, I find sharing my burden with others difficult even confusing.

Beautiful hair
Alex is so beautiful. Thank you for this. Your channel is as lovely as Alex.
What a beautiful woman, and I am a non-believer
People like her make me wish I believed
People like her should make you believe that there is beauty in God. Like she said, wherever you are, God can meet you there if you just let Him
She reminds me of Drew Barrymore for some reason.
Her ex was a total fool.
So sad that she wouldn't look at the pictures. Your pictures are always so well done and seem to capture your subjects' inner spirits. She is so beautiful. I hope she learns to appreciate her beauty.

Stunning lady , i do t like photographs or images of myse either , but you took some beautiful ones of her though.
Beautiful, loved your message very meaningful. Thank you Alex
Beautiful Soul!! 🙏🙏
a loverly lady inside and out
My sister, the Lord has blessed you with this opportunity to testify of your faith, and you honoured the Creator God beautifully. Keep going! ❤ from New Zealand 🇳🇿
She's beautiful. I think she has self limiting beliefs about her worth.
wonderful human - wow!
And Alex is beautiful

🌍🇧🇧🙏🏾Blessings. The Creator PROMISE IS SURE AND TRUE🙏🏾He Will NEVER LEAVE US NOR FORSAKE US 📖⛪️🙏🏾🌍 Stay Bless 🙏🏾 Stay Safe 🙏🏾
It happens all the time after a crisis..turn to GOD..Don’t use it as a crutch please walk on your own…
Or...just be happy to let people be FREE to choose what makes them happy without judgmental statements.😄
Just curious: Isn't Alex a name normally assigned to men ?
Alexandra is a female name of Greek origin, i.e. thousands of years old. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandra
Alexis, Alexandria, Alexandra...
I think his videos are staged, something about how people walk into his frame expectantly to talk to this man is suspect.
