Love when you make videos about other people’s creativity, especially when it’s outside of their ability to make something like that themselves. More artists, doing more things, always.
What I have ALWAYS loved about you and your channel is the way you give back. You are always showcasing and supporting other artists in their endeavors. Hats off to you, Peter McKinnon. You are a great guy with a big heart. This video was awesome. No doubt your support is sending Coup De Tete to the next level.
Dude this is incredible. THIS is what it’s all about. Helping someone else & stepping up their game, whether it’s tips & tricks, simple tweaks or even gifting them with new equipment. This is awesome dude & this is the kind of content that makes me an even bigger fan
Love this ! When someone like yourself does something like this (what I like to call paying forward) for someone it honestly shows more about that person’s personality and the ability to make a big difference to someone’s life not just be a TH-camr or creative so on.. it’s about being a kind and humble human being! Keep being you Pete ! Good on you !
I know it’s a long shot for you to see this Peter but man I need to sincerely thank you for these videos, your message, the vibe you put forth in your work. It’s really helped me through a very hard time in my career. I’m in a transition of selling my current business (hopefully) to pursue a dream in cinematography/photography and a lot of it has to be credited to you. It’s always been a little side passion for me but I think time to take serious and chase after it.
Glad to see you sharing your expertise with people to help them take their success and vision to the next level. I feel like helping other creatives grow is a big part of what is important about being a photographer to me and its nice to see that I'm not alone there.
Nice to see a family business grow up and with you helping, it´ll grow faster!! I love Canon and my face would be the same of the girl if I could got that gear. Regards from Argentina.
You have stepped up the game for so many of us. I wish I had the time to put in all the stuff you tought me into my work. I mean I just do videography for a hobby but you gave us so much tiny and big Tips over the years. Just thank you.
Peter I am an old retired sports and wedding photographer. I have followed you from the first time I ran across you on TH-cam many years ago.I knew you had the magic. You are such an incredible inspiration. Even being retired I have a Canon 70 D as my backup a 1DX markII and a R3 and have kept a few lenses. Watching you makes me want to get back into the business and reinvent myself into a product photographer/videographer. I truly love people I have more lights than I have ever used Godox flashes softboxes strobes most of which sit in boxes screaming at me put them to work. If you ever venture close to Dublin Ohio or Fort Myers Florida I would love to spend as much time as you can spare to see if there is still magic in the air…Keep on inspiring Thanks,Mark
Dude, plain and simple you are awesome. I’ve learnt and gained and improved so much with my craft purely because of your videos. And then you doing something like this just speaks volumes. Man, keep up the awesome work you do. If you’re ever in Texas it would be a frikin life goal just to be able to meet you and take a picture with you.
Giving my product photography starved brain it’s much needed dopamine hit. Good on ya Pete and goons on Coup de tete! Their hats are insane and I love seeing them
Pete, you have the hat, you have the western look, all you need is a horse, a stable and a short western film in that type of setup. Kirk can be your sidekick gunslinger. Awesome video and I am glad you can improve their shop thru photography.
How can I NOT like this? You're on of few creators on YT I still respect so much. No traces of "I am successful and better than you", which I appreciate. Too many (much less successful than you ) TH-camrs give off that vibe! Your authenticity is just great. And this video shows it!
Dude this vid was Awesome, I love the footage of inside the hat store, and the way the light highlights the hat on the dark timber, and the use of skulls and playing cards has such a cool style about it.. this would be my second fav vid of yours after the bucket shot...
I love how genuine love and care gets rewarded. I think this is a perfect example of Pete loving his craft as well as the guys over at Coup de Tete, and just coming together to make something amazing. It makes me happy to see stuff like this because (at least where I'm from) people usually feel someone else's win is their loss. Anyway! Thanks for the amazing amazing videos Pete! You inspire me to be me and make art my own way!
One of my favourite vids! I just love seeing people so passionate about what they do, especially in the creative space. Thanks Pete, for also using your passion to showcase and collaborate with other wonderful creative people, and for sharing that with us.
You’re the man, Pete! I love how you could help those guys, got my hat from them thanks to you and all the guys were soooo cool and amazing! The guys that make you love small businesses. Couldn’t be happier!
I needed this, I literally needed this. Been feeling pretty flat with my photography lately. It's been a hot minute since I watched your channel I will admit, but god I've missed this
gotta love the "give back" stage of a career, you make all the connections and have the choice to just keep it all for yourself or give it to other people doing cool things that could use a little push and guidance.
This is a true story-teller theme. Visit with them, get invested and your viewers invested, nudge them towards better, visit them and update your viewers with more story. Pure gold Pete.
This is pure LOVE Peter mann helping good people and helping each other is what its all about thank you for taking your platform and using to help more other then yourself Hats off to you my man :) see what i did there ? ok ill stop PEACE!!
THIS. The fact that you are pouring into new creators in these personal and real ways is just MAGIC. Keep it up and definitely bring us along for the ride!
Yes. Keep doing this style of video. And go into detail of how the photos can be improved or changed in regards to making more sales or creating a brands look
I love seeing the process of things (because it makes me think of my own process!) I look forward to Coup de tete on TH-cam! Definitely let us know when that happens. I indeed liked this.
Wonderful story, well done Pete and awesome of Canon to help someone in their business, Peter you are an amazing selfless man, your amazing and I love the talented people all around x
I’ve been here before you’ve had a million subscribers. You’re one of my biggest inspirations when it comes to photography… if I’d be able to even work remotely with you to grow my own craft, that would be a dream come true. COVID killed my photography business (I mainly shot big dance battle events) and had to sell 80% of my kit… all I have now is my Canon 6D and my 50mm lens. If you’d could give some insights in how to be even more creative with that… that would be incredible. (I know you probably won’t read this because of all the comments… but I did want to share.) you’re a big inspiration. And I hope to one day meet you irl
We must always try to improve. I have been re-organizing my office and this video gave me an idea. I’m going to try and set up a dedicated area for photos.
Very cool, and very nice for you. Curious about something though... they were shooting with a Nikon D800 which is a first class, top shelf camera, professional-level camera that wasn't in need of replacement... So as much as it was nice of Canon to give you gear to give to them, had you known they were using a Nikon D800, don't you think the Canon gear could have gone to someone else that really needed an upgrade?
Thank you, Peter, your definitely an inspiration man, its always amazing to see your work and how you get it done. Thumbs up. Canon to the rescue, nice kit and setup. The images rock for sure.
Really find your product photography videos inspiring, along with your enthusiasm. I reallly love the lighting these guys use for their products .... so difficult to get this effect, yet their setup looks so simple.
So the video fades out, and I think to myself, “I love watching Peter love his job.” Then the video fades back in with Peter saying how much he loves his job. Epic! It's so great the way you give back, dude! 🤘
Not going to lie. I am a bit envious of that kit...but not only that, but also how well those hat suit you; I put on a simple cap on and look like Toad from SuperMario. Dammit McKinnon!! 😆
I've just started getting into the product photography rabbit hole, my TH-cam channel never performed the way I wanted so I've decided to sell my makes instead, you've really helped me out Mr. McKinnon. I want an R5 now but it's more expensive than the budget I have for a car 😂
Great video Peter. The journey they've been on is awesome. It helps having an interesting product to shoot. Our business is growing, packing and selling onions and I find it hard to find interesting ways to shoot an Onion so give up before I start.
Thanks for the energy that is coming through your videos. I really enjoy them, and fuel me for the day with enthusiasm for even what I do, which is different from photography. Man, I need a hat like those :D
I just want to let you know, it's cause of you that I was able to pick up my first camera back in 2017 and to pursue photography! Little did I know by watching your video, you inspired me to take photography seriously, back in 2021 I quit my 9-5 job (best buy just like you lol) to do have a full time wedding photography and videography business. Last year I became a nomatic ambassador too, thank you for constantly inspiring me and for also inspiring people them in your video! I wouldn't have made it far without your new creative videos for pushing not only me but my growing my team too! I can't wait for many more videos and to see where your successful creative life takes you! Rooting for you :)
Love the story, and so fun to see the evolution over the decade. I love going back and seeing that in my own photos and art. My favorite part though is your genuine love for your job and hats there Pete. That brought such a smile on. Have a good one! 🤠🎨😁
Peter, you are the reason that i am a filmmaker today... and after 5 years of watching the first video from your channel you are still inspiring me with every single video! it is one of my goals to see you in person. you are awesome!

I'm so glad I have stayed with you all these years. You got me into photography and I can't thank you enough for guiding me down this rabbit hole
Mr. Peter! A big hug from Puerto Rico! You have a big heart and you’re a big inspiration to many people!
Gracias por todo lo que nos das!
By the way… Hi Kirk! 👋
This is my favourite video of yours for ages! Please do more like this. Definitely interested to see more product photography too!
The best video idea ever! You've reached so high Pete and now you help people! What a job mate!
Wholesome goodness! Excited to see where their photo/video journey goes. And those hats are all amazing!

Peter McKinnon the Camera Faerie. Im here for it. Shout out to Canon for setting a brother up.
What a great idea and concept! Pete visiting and helping people / businesses with photography. 👍👍👍
Pete, you've never stopped making people better! We love you and it's so awesome to see people be so blessed! I would love a new Canon R5! :)
Tremendous show of generosity and empathy and gratefulness. Love the hats!
So authentic. When people like you step in and help others, ah, it’s just so perfect!

This video is so cool Peter and I’m so happy you enjoy helping other people and creators out 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Best video in a long time... These aren't hats they are art...
Pete, you have the hat, you have the western look, all you need is a horse, a stable and a short western film in that type of setup. Kirk can be your sidekick gunslinger. Awesome video and I am glad you can improve their shop thru photography.
On ya PM…. sharing the love has its own rewards. Great stuff.

You’re the man, Pete!
I love how you could help those guys, got my hat from them thanks to you and all the guys were soooo cool and amazing! The guys that make you love small businesses. Couldn’t be happier!
Dude, what a way to support a brand. Nice work!
Peter, if no one has told you, you’re awesome!!! Such a great inspiration to us all.
I needed this, I literally needed this. Been feeling pretty flat with my photography lately. It's been a hot minute since I watched your channel I will admit, but god I've missed this
Big thumbs up. i love it when people create with heart, talent and passion.
People helping people - that's what it's all about! Good stuff! 👍
i love the idea of helping people
I love not just the critique aspect but the story as well 🙌🏾
Appreciate it!
Great stuff! Real people and their lives. Keep bringing it!
gotta love the "give back" stage of a career, you make all the connections and have the choice to just keep it all for yourself or give it to other people doing cool things that could use a little push and guidance.
He makes more than 2 thumbnails. And we can get so happy imagining he had uploaded two videos in 24 hours.
This is a true story-teller theme. Visit with them, get invested and your viewers invested, nudge them towards better, visit them and update your viewers with more story. Pure gold Pete.
This is fantastic! Currently upgrading my studio setup for my custom turquoise jewelry business. This is super helpful and inspiring!
Dang…. Top 5 pm vids of all time.. great fricken job!!!!!
I was so hoping that you’d say: “I called Canon…” when you were in the shop. So good.
I know what it feels like to love what you do for a living! It shows in you and the folks at Coup de Tete.
Awesome video and more awesome gesture from your part Pete!
This is pure LOVE Peter mann helping good people and helping each other is what its all about thank you for taking your platform and using to help more other then yourself Hats off to you my man :) see what i did there ? ok ill stop PEACE!!

This was beautiful ! Watching you Pour into people is inspiring
Really find your product photography videos inspiring, along with your enthusiasm. I reallly love the lighting these guys use for their products .... so difficult to get this effect, yet their setup looks so simple.
So good! I love that you are giving back not only with gear but with your experience and knowledge.
This is a great idea for an ongoing series. Absolutely love it.
So the video fades out, and I think to myself, “I love watching Peter love his job.” Then the video fades back in with Peter saying how much he loves his job. Epic! It's so great the way you give back, dude! 🤘
Really like this video! From the content... the visuals... and the messaging of wanting to help others... TOP NOTCH! Thx Peter

Great idea for new series of content Pete. It will certainly help us all, those you help directly and those of us watching 🙏
And all of your viewers and fans just love you. You're a mind blowing artist! 🤯
