That book and your photography was just absolutely beautiful 😊
What an utterly fantastic book of memories you've created, and something that will stay in your family for generations to come. This is what photography is about. My children are almost 20 years of age and I can't stress the importance to everyone of getting your cherished photographs off your hard drive and onto paper, into books and on the wall. Good photographs deserve to be seen. Great work Andrew and I wish you and your family much happiness.
Thanks for the encouraging words, Rich. I do hope to do some more printing soon.
The best video of the x100f, literally I feel I've just watch a movie ! Love it I want do this !
👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
Sometimes, it's the everyday moments that are the most precious. Picture a quiet evening at home, with family members gathered around the dinner table, sharing stories and laughter. The camera captures the warmth and love that fills the room, immortalizing the simple yet beautiful moments of family life. Thanks for sharing bro.
👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
very inspiring. i just bought an x100F and i didn't think to create to a photo book
Beautiful pictures and beautiful family. Thank you for sharing
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
So awesome. Thank you for sharing these personal gems. Absolutely gorgeous.
❤️❤️❤️
This is Beautiful Photobook! Thanks for sharing!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks for sharing, beautiful photos
Thanks for watching!
What a beautiful video and a beautiful family!! Very inspiring to do something similar when I have kids of my own 😊
Awesome.
As a father of an 1 year old kid I find your photographs so inspirational - thanks!
I love the consistency in your book. I find it hard to create a book as my editing style still varies too much from picture to picture.
Thanks, Jiggy!
I would say SEND IT anyway. Your pictures are historical records, so that's the important thing. We look back at old film photos of our childhood and they're terrible from a technical standpoint, but that doesn't matter to us looking at them now. It's all about the feels. So go ahead and make a book, while continuing to develop your style and try to improve on the next one :)
It’s really beautiful when photos being printed... you can appreciate the value of the pictures.
👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
loved this. thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm researching what to get for my first camera. I have watched lots and lots of review videos on TH-cam about the X100F. But none of them hits me as hard as your video.. I'm definitely getting one after watching this, what a lovely photo album you have there.
You’ll enjoy it. Great camera!
This is so cute! What a beautiful family you have! This makes me wanna take more photos and create a photo book.
amazing photos and a great book that your family will cherish forever, great stuff
This is so wonderful ! Love the light, colors and skin tones.
That is wonderful! I've got the same camera and my daughter is about the same age as yours. Thanks for the inspiration!
You are so welcome!😀
I also have (and love) the X100F, and when I saw your video in my feed, I expected it to be about the camera. I've never been so happy to be wrong! Well of course you are showing wonderful pictures taken with that great little camera, but this video is about so much more than photography. Thank you very much for sharing these very special moments. I wish you and your beautiful family all the best.
Inspiring!
Lovely collection !
This was such a sick video. I love images like those. You are shooting the right way, man. Enjoy those fantastic moments.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is beautiful, and so is your family. Thanks for sharing and inspiring!
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I'm not crying, you're crying
😭😭😭
This is BEAUTIFUL! Thank you for sharing. 💕
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Beautiful images in a beautiful book! I have an X100F as well and love using it for day to day life.
Thanks, Chip! It really is a great camera 😀
Loved this! You and your photos/videos are a big reason I invested into an x100v, very inspiring!
Very cool!
Beautiful photos mate.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
These are some beautiful frames. Your daughter will definitely appreciate it in the future. Books like this won't let you forget these everyday moments. Videos like yours encouraged me to get my own X100F. A camera that lets you capture the moment anytime, anywhere. Greetings from Poland. You did a great job. :)
Wow...Poland! Thanks for the kind words. Hope you enjoy your X100F!
very inspiring. Thank you
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
What a beautiful collection and great captures. I do also take lots of photos of my daughters and I have plan to gift them a book in their 16
now this is the beauty and magic of photography. thanks so much for sharing
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Love the photos, miss you guys!
Miss you guys too. Much has changed here 😂
This is beautiful. Love Fuji! 💫
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Hey Andrew, watching from Japan. Thank you so much for making this video. My first child was born today, and thanks to this video as a reference I've been documenting my wife's pregnancy up until now with a x100f. You've inspired me to capture the moments that may seem mundane at the time but when looking back are the ones I never want to forget. I wish you and your beautiful family all the best.
Wow...congrats on the baby, and glad you're able to capture those moments. Keep on shooting!
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Respect and best wishes to you and your family. 👍🏻
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
We've been looking at this camera for my wife. We have a couple of young kids and another on the way and we got emotional watching your daughter grow! So special!
Amazing. You’ll love the camera definitely go for it!
This is so sweet
🙏🏼
Thanks for the inspiration!
Any time!
Wonderful, what a treasure to have and pass on, Love the Fuji x100 series,
❤️❤️❤️
Wow this is a superb inspiration, I will definitely create this for my boy. Thanks Andrew.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
What a great video. To be cherished someday by your daughter like the wonderful book you made.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Outstanding pictures. You have a lovely family. Congrats on your newborn. Thanks for posting the video as this really made me realize this camera is what I’m looking for. Cheers.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 hope you like the camera!
Fantastic, beautiful pictures ! Cheers from Belgium !
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Beautiful pictures❣️😍
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Awesome video! I got my x100v after watching one of your videos about your x100f and I am so happy I did. I have been able to get amazing quality portraits of my little nephews that I printed and can keep forever. Like you, I hope my camera lasts for a long time too so that I can use it later for my children and hand down as well. The build quality is is amazing and I’m sure the cameras will last a long time.
So good! Glad you like it. Gotta love going the final step and printing your photos. Cheers!
Really beautiful pictures and lovely family you have. As a X100f owner, fellow New Yorker, and new father of a 5 month old, this video really resonated with me. I’m fairly new to photography and still figuring out my x100f, so sometimes I find myself fighting with it to get the best picture possible of my son, but after watching this video I will be more patient and try to use it more to get better quality photos. Your book inspired me to create my own for my kid one day.
5-month old...crazy times as a new parent. Just keep shooting and sort out the editing and book later haha! Congrats on the family!
Brilliant
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Beautiful video. You inspired me to make a photo book myself. Thank you!
Awesome!
This is beautiful man
Thanks Jamie 🙏🏼
You did a great job on the book and made a fine video.Cheers.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Absolutely beautiful! I have going on 9 kids. Baby Noah is due the beginning of May. I will never stop documenting their lives. Thanks for the inspiration, this video brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful family btw...
9 kids wow! Endless photos I imagine. Cheers!
Great 👍🏽👍🏽
You made my mind to buy this camera as my first one. THANKYOU
enjoy it!
beautiful images!!! love it! you have to make a video on how to retouch, please!!! because looks amazing, colors are beautiful
Loving your channel-- I have the XT30 - very small but I can interchange lenses. I really like the 16mm... am documenting our lives ...
Thanks! It’s a great system. Enjoy it!!
That is wonderful time..
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hi there, I just got myself a X100F, thats y looking for video on this cam and by chance to view your video. It's truly inspiring! I was afraid as I was a Canon user all the way and decided to change system to Fuji but still having trouble to get used to it. Oh well looking at your video I will find back my inspiration again ! And hope I didn't make the wrong decision of changing system !
Superb inspiration, I dont have a baby yet but Im definitely gonna do this for my loved ones. Thank you so much
👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
muy bonito
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
so inspiring! gonna make new..
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Absolutely in love with these photos and your book 😍😍😍 Also is that a Math hat I see 😏
🧢🧢🧢
Beautiful, nothing else to say.. I'm considerably older than you and when my children were growing up I never found the time to document - like John Lennon said, life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans - like you have here, however from three daughters I have eight grandsons - yes eight boys, what are the odds - so now that I'm retired with time on my hands I can document there lives through the many visits to nanny and granddads and I hope to make a book of all those visits. thanks for your vid
Thanks for the comment & quote. I keep reminding myself of the Lennon quote now whenever I get stressed out haha!
I'm just a 24 yo student but this was such an emotional video and really inspired me and I took notes if I ever have the chance to have my own family I would definitely want to do something like this... If I could ask a question off-topic, would you recommend x100f in 2021 as a first ever camera?
It’s a great camera. You could even get an older x100t. Having only one lens will prevent you from falling into gear acquisition syndrome. I would get one myself, but I already have another Fujifilm camera as well as a Ricoh GR2 (similar to x100 style point and shoot). So…. It’s hard to justify spending another $1000 on an x100
😍😍😍
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Fucking fantastic. Captured the emotion very well.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Man the pictures are absolutely beautiful! 😍 Did you edit them yourself or it was with the camera recipes?
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 edited in LR. But I’m trying out some recipes finally 😅
beautiful photobook! i love it so much!
would love to do it for my fiancé and soon to be wife! would you mind sharing, what photo filters or camera settings you use to achieve that look/vibes you have in your photobook✨
Thanks Iqmal!

Great video too
Thank you for sharing these wonderful moments. Just curious, what camera did you use for the overhead shot and front shots?
Thanks! For video I use the A7R3 and A6600. Check links in description :)

@@andrewhkim thank you. Your awesome!
love these photos and what a beautiful fam!! may i ask if you shoot on auto or manual? or how do you usually shoot with your x100f settings? ty :)
Thanks!! Mostly aperture priority. Here’s a video of my settings…
th-cam.com/video/NSjVjPf6mWI/w-d-xo.html
Do you still take the pictures raw for documentation style of photos like these or jpeg would be fine? Very lovely video and photos! Ty!
Sorry for the late response. I still shoot raw bc I process in Lr. But jpg is fine too
Congratulations bro love that idea love the book this lovely awesome. Have u tried x100v which one should I get the x100f or x100v
If you can budget it, I’d personally go for the V today. But if not, F is just as good value for the money. I’m not upgrading from the F.
@@andrewhkim enjoy many blessings on being new parents life time journey 👍🏼 enjoy every second of it ❤️
Thanks bro!
These are beautiful shots - which film simulation did you use for the color shots? and did you modify it at all?
Mainly used Classic Chrome, but then edited in LR. Here's a couple videos that show how I edited many of the shots...

How did you study photo edit such a cinematic look color?

I have a question, I just recently bought this camera. When I press the ND Filter button, the screen is shown On but I don't see any difference? Is it not working or has it is something gotta do with the settings? Thanks
It only pops up right before capture. See it in action here at 8:10 mark

@@andrewhkim Thank you!
This is so beautiful! I just ordered the X100f mainly for taking photos of my niece who is seven weeks old today! I’ve mostly been using my phone and it’s okay but not the best. Then my DSLR setup produces great results but is too big and heavy for all the time use so I’m hoping this will by what perfect in between!
Not just the perfect in between but potentially your primary camera! Hope you enjoy it 😀
@@andrewhkim I mainly shoot weddings, so I don't think I'll be using it for that, but I've been loving it for my everyday camera! I've had it on me almost non-stop since I got it in two days ago. I'm so impressed with the image quality, and the video. I added a couple clips to my IG Story like you were talking about and they're so clear and crisp compared to the iPhone!
Wonderful! What kind of black filter do you use in front of the lens? 😅
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 it’s a B+W MRC UV filter
Could you give me some information on the adapter? 🥲 Thank you!
JJC lens hood w/o the hood. Just the adapter ring amzn.to/3axTMkC
@@andrewhkim Oh !! Thank You Very Much 😁😁😁
What is the name of the photo book you used? You said it’s a software program? Thank you
Saal Digital
@@andrewhkim Thank you Andrew! 😀
I am planning to buy the X70, is it a good starting camera for photography?
Yea. Basically any old camera will do.
@@andrewhkim Im torn between x70 and xf10, what camera would you recommend?
