Hellooo, I hope you enjoyed this episode - I'm really happy with the final result of this video. After shooting with Flo I wasn't yet sure how to bring it all together, but I think it turned out pretty cool. Thank you to Flo ( @analoguevibez ) for showing me the gorgeous forest and adding his perspective to the video!
I think, your style videos for someone getting into photography is beyond just beginner. It's the feeling of someone wanting to improve, it's profound enough to let a viewer think on their own while you gently nudge them to a similar appeal that you would have.
Hey guys it’s a long shot that you’ll see this comment but I started shooting about 2 years ago or so after my first trip to Italy since then I’ve been to Iceland and our most recent EU trip Germany more specific south of Munich in a city called Zorneding, we would drive through the forest almost every afternoon to eat in Aying and it was beautiful. I’m so jealous of your homeland. Quite the astonishing place to live. I’ve found it’s quite hard to find that excitement in places you live day to say so I thought hearing it from someone like me would be a good message for all.
This entire year I've been bringing my A9 with me every time I leave the house in my car, and just randomly stopping at places on my way to and from destinations, taking pictures of things that I find interesting. Sometimes while driving... LOL.
I think having to carry the camera and take the time to snap photos are not the only friction points when you want to make photography a habit. You also then need to spend time and effort developing, organizing or editing them, which can be even more challenging. Another thing is finding the motivation to take and edit photos when you've got no audience that would appreciate them, whether it be your friends or strangers on the internet.
I completely understand that the editing can take a toll on this process. There are ways though to stream line the process or even cameras that can help such as the Fuji cameras that include film simulations. The audience however should not be of your concern. Photography should stem from the intrinsic motivation to document or capture, not to present or seek validation. Even with the amount of photographs I share here and on Instagram, there are so many photos that I love and haven't published anywhere and probably never will - they are just for me. This can have various reasons, such as privacy (intimate photos of family) or simply the subject matter only being something you relate to :)
@@teocrawford Sure, you're right, and the art of noticing and the habit of carrying the camera on you definitely help! I just wanted to add to the points you made that the process does need to start with that intrinsic motivation, which can often dip and shouldn't be taken for granted, and that it doesn't end with pressing the shutter either. (I'm actually quite happy with the standard color profile of my camera and I rarely edit or share any photos, so that's a big 'time saver', let's say... But in the last two years, I didn't have the capacity to even organize my everyday photos, which left me with a messy folder of over 20 000 shots. Knowing that any new photos would just end up on top of that pile didn't exactly help motivate me to take more. Now I'm slowly working through that backlog and I've adopted a better 'system' to keep them tidy without too much effort and overthinking. Also trying not to 'spray and pray' so much...)
@@dominik.zemanek.97 Yeah absolutely, thank you for sharing!🫶🏼 Ohh actually… in case this comforts you in any way, my backlog is exactly the same, just a huuuge pile of shots haha. But somehow I don’t really care, I don’t mind that - I‘ve just always accepted that to be part of the process😅🤷🏻♂️
Out of that initial general list, I gotta say that I can't understate that good sleep does help (as it does with everything). I've suffered through a lot of insomnia on a semi-regular basis and I can see in the frames when my brain is suffering from lack of sleep. You sometimes don't even feel too different, but it's evident when you're looking back!
As both a photographer and professional musician, I can second this. Sometimes only 30 minutes of difference can make or break a day too. Getting enough sleep takes the foot off of the break for creativity.
What a lovely video. I couldn't agree more! When we're traveling in our van, I always have my camera in hand - taking video out the window and photographing and filming our adventures in nature. But when we're home, walking our dog daily in the forest, I rarely take my camera unless there's fresh snow or special conditions. Now, thanks to you, I'm going to start taking it with me every day. (I've missed some awesome shots by not having it with me.) As a newly inspired photographer, I notice that even if I don't have my camera I still am looking at the world through a photographer's eye, - that is a wonderful way to look at the world. It has strengthened my sense of being present in my environment. I have a couple of tips for carrying a camera. My favorite setup is my Canon R6 with a 24-70 f2.8 lens. This is pretty heavy. I have a camera strap I sling over my shoulder and my camera clips on and off very easily with an arca-swiss attachment. I have a similar setup on my backpack strap, so I don't have to take off my backpack if we're hiking. Swish and click... and I can take a video or a photo. Thanks again. I found you from Thomas Heaton's link to your video. I've subscribed and I look forward to more of your videos. ~ Kristina @ClarityOffGrid
I absolutely love your videos. The aesthetics, the music, the photos, everything is just perfect. Your videos have helped me a great deal in becoming more confident in my photography. Which in turn made me able to dedicate my final examination project to photography and nature which really makes me happy. Your videos have also helped and still help me get through a tough time. My mother-in-law got sick about 6 months ago and sadly passed away way too young a couple of weeks ago. Those last moment really taught me to appreciate the simple and mundane things around us and these videos somehow really help me to get my mind in order. I really hope you keep on making great videos and keep having fun.
This could not ring more true, the fun got sucked out of photography for me so I sold commercial gear & stopped looking for any clients. Just focused on my career, bought a pocket camera with fixed 28mm. It’s been 2 years since then and I’ve since found the love I’ve lost. In that time of having a camera on me daily for two years, I took my best shots I’ve ever taken. I just wrapped up a succesful self printed, binded & published photobook using only those images.
I like that you go through the problem with your camera being in your backpack. I carry mine in a side-bag, but all I have to do is unzip one part and pull the camera out. I don't have to take my bag off or unclip my camera after that or anything. I also never use a lens cap because that's an extra step that gets in the way. I also leave my camera switched on 100% of the time. It hibernates after 30 seconds, it doesn't use batteries when hibernating, and the time it takes to wake up and set an exposure is less than the time it takes me to feel the push of my finger on the shutter button, so it might as well have been on the whole time. The most impressive part about you and your friend is that you're shooting film! Being limited to 24 pictures at a time was such an obstacle for me before digital SLRs. I could never take enough pictures to get good, or have enough left to be prepared for another picture, because I would always run out of film first.
I absolutely love that film like aesthetic in your videos, those warm tones, grainy shots and the composition of your scenes are just inspiring. You definitely inspire me to take more picture and become a better photographer. Keep up your great work Too!
Every time I watch your videos i get a lot of inspiration. I photographed 365 days from October 2022 to October 2023 and looking at your 30 days, I want to continue this challenge again. I realized that I didn’t treat the marathon as I should have. Very inspired by the level of your photos! It’s very beautiful and looking at the photos i feel calm. Are they... kind? Thank you for your art!
Thank you for your kind words! Congratulations on pulling off the 365 day streak, that's amazing! Shouldn't be too hard to keep going now - you've already been on it for a year at this point! :D I'm so happy you can some way connect with the photography, thank you!
After watching the previous episode, I also started a 30-day challenge, only I don't take a photo, but a video. and only vertical at 35mm. Just to make it difficult. Not simple. Mainly because you have to get close to everyone, which is more than unusual. My thinking and attitude have not changed. I'm already thinking about the next location, I'll let you know as soon as possible. But it won't work that way. But there is still a long way to go. This can change. Thank you
Thanks Teo for inspiring me to go out and shoot more! I am too base in Austria and it can get hard to shoot amidst the everyday chaos but I now take my camera with me everyday! 🙏🏻💪🏻
Something I learned about 25 years ago was that sometimes the pictures find you, and you have to be ready. You have to keep your camera with you and your eyes open. I always have a camera with me, even if I am going to the store, I always take a camera. There’s been times when I have a camera but I have left my wallet…
I got a Rollei 35 a while ago, and it has improved my photography a lot. I can take it with me everywhere. Of course I could just shoot with my phone, but it rarely happens. A film camera is so much more inspiring and fun to use.
Your videos have a sense of calmness to it and I also want to say maybe nostalgic? It evokes a sense of familiarity and peacefulness. Hope to do it myself one day but thanks for posting teo
I love this view of photography! I'm like you and I often schedule a time to take photo, but I try ro have my camera with me most of the time now. I kind of like even more doing photo with this new mindset !😊
This is so true! If you always have your camera around your shoulder, you’re always ready to take a photo when the opportunity strikes. Maybe some days you take tons of photos, maybe you only take one, maybe you take none. But the most important thing is that you were ready!
Best video yet Teo! Absolutely love your videos since I got into analog photography a couple months ago. I know 35mm photography is your thing, but would you ever do a video trying out medium format cameras?
Oh hey! Did I spot that you drove through Weißenhorn at 4:29. My home town for 2 years now. The area has become a little uninspiring, but Flo's photo's look great and inspiring. Good video, and I agree with your point.
Amazing video Teo! I’ve always had a passion for photography. For me, It’s a beautiful hobby that makes you appreciated life as it is and capture those moments. This video has inspired me to keep practicing my photography skills and maybe, who knows, sale my photographs to make a living.
Another excellent, slow paced and thoughtful video: thanks !! I use peak design clips on my backpacks with arca swiss type plates mounted under the camera. That way the camera is always there on the backpack strap and there is no friction to immediately shoot with my Panasonic Lumix G80 or G9.
I would love to see you make a video of a night/fog self portrait like you used to do but with the new story telling and editing you have developed since ä. Great videos also!
Aww would be fun again some time! Sadly Innsbruck is reaaally not foggy and my interests and style in photography have changed and shifted, hence I haven't been doing those too much recently. But speaking of it doooees give me the itch to go for another one of those sessions :D
Really enjoyed this video. Those views through the Alps are amazing. Visited Fussen a few years ago and its like something out of a dream even when the light isn't perfect.
You’ve inspired me so much with my film photography and your videos just help calm my soul so much has been happening but your videos help bring me at peace. I hope I can save enough monies to go to japannnn
Lovely video--so beautifully executed that the viewer may not even notice how much thought and intention went into it. The great ones, like Joe DiMaggio, make the extraordinary look easy. Flo's photography is outstanding, and the icing on the cake is his wonderful doggy.
HI! First of all, thank you for introducing me to photography. I was looking for something “minimal and simple”. Two days ago I bought on a sale market a point and shoot film camera. I love it! From going to the shop to by the film, learning how my camera works, the act of taking my time before shooting to getting my photos printed. Thank you again! Speaking of prints how do you store them and in which format do you get them printed? Have a great evening greetings from Switzerland.
This is great! I love carrying cameras with me, recently I even give my pocket camera to my mom to see what she sees. It’s an amazing thing I’ve noticed… I can hear her stories, but it’s a whole different thing being able to see through her vision. Now the one thing I really struggle is not documenting, but having the habit to review my documentation and having a structure to store them in a hard drive or my computer… do you have a video about this?😅
Hey Teo, greetings from Oberbayern! Nice video, I'll have to check out the rest of your stuff... Flo talks about 'being lucky'. I always tell people that good photographers aren't 'lucky' - they make their own luck by being in the right place at the right time...
Great advice. I think you should have your camera with you at all times. That's something I use to do. The only way your going to get that shot is to simply be there. Peace, my friend!
So thankful to Thomas Heaton for introducing me to you and to you for introducing me to Flo. Love film photography. Anyone knows which camera Flo was using?
I loved this videoo :) 💕 It reminded me of the feeling I get every time I take a photo of the sky! I don’t go out much and the sky… although it’s always the sky, it’s also always a different sky (I don’t know if it makes sense haha 😅), so I like when I notice it and take a picture! It’s always here, its easy to photograph and it makes me feel present :) Thanks for making this video! I think something clicked in my head! ✨
I disagree a little bit about the “keep your camera around your neck” thing. Personally I use a messenger bag with velcro. It’s super quick to open and take out the camera. I rarely skip potential photos. That said, I also spend a lot of time with my camera I hand (I use wrist straps) even when I’m on a bike. That is more for speed than for reducing friction in the “should I bother?” thought process.
Not only does that guy live near beautiful pine forests there is mist maybe pretty often? I could not be more envious! I always have a camera with me, but my photos don’t turn out that great. Still having fun with it though!
I`ve been shooting film for over thirty years, a Leica M3 that I no longer own and a Nikon F2 that I use today, Film has gotten very expensive for me. I use Blue Moon Camera for optical prints and premium scans with flash drives. Cost of film and shipping, together with the optical prints, run over $100! So I decided to purchase a Leica MD 262 digital camera the one that shoots like film with no LCD screen. The images from the Leica are too perfect! My Nikon (film) camera produces a more relaxed, organic natural rendering. I like both formats but film is a winner for me except for the costs. I do use the Leica much more but just can`t stop shooting film...!
Hi Teo! Thank you for such a valuable reminder - to have photography as a habit :) Your videos are pusre pleasure to wathc, from visuals, to the story and to the meaning you add. When talking to Florian in a room, 12:36, what did you connect your mic to? Is it a mobile phone?
Hey there! 🌟 I'm currently navigating the 'broke but hopeful' phase of my life, where even dreams of owning a camera seem like luxury! 😅 Any tips on starting creative projects on a shoestring budget? Keep inspiring! ✨"
As a fellow broke person I’d say go to thrift stores and go often. Eventually you’ll find a decent film camera, digital point and shoot, or an old DSLR… Either that or buy them used! Hope this helps.
This can be good advice to an extent but I also feel like it’s a slippery slope to burn out. I love bringing my camera out into nature but I enjoy being able to go other places without it. Because the very act of bringing the camera kind of changes your intention and behavior, and I want my brain to be able to rest from that “gotta shoot it all” pressure.

Came back from a photo walk this morning feeling quite burnt out and like I didn't get any good shots. This video definitely came at the right time!
I really like the interview, his photos, and his comments.

I'm so happy this can in some way spark some inspiration! Thank you for the kind comment, liebe Grüße! :D
Amazing video, Teo! I had to pause the video several times and reflect on the insights you and Flo were sharing. You inspire me so much! xx
Thank you for sharing both yours and Flo's photos. Lovely indeed.
'Flo has counselled me'. I needed to hear this Teo! Thank you. Thank you so much. I'm habituated with my art but never dared to put it online.
the art of noticing 🙌🏽
the video quality iss crazyyy

Such a great video, man
Love this.
Teo, this video was beautiful 🤩 both visually and the subject matter. Well done!
Aww thank you Steven!
Love the commentary! I’ve been taking my camera everywhere lately.
Wow, so inspiring! Thank you 💪
A very inspirational video! It’s time to take my camera out again.
5:44 ayo WHAT is that dog doing 😭

Nice work... Beautifully shot, and great advice! Edit: I should add, your video makes me want to dig my film camera out of the basement!
I just watched your recent video and then this new one popped up. 😅🎉
Love this!
Aww danke Joseph!!
@@teocrawford klarolino
Wow, you came *really* close to where I live.
Hey Teo, greetings from Oberbayern! Nice video, I'll have to check out the rest of your stuff... Flo talks about 'being lucky'. I always tell people that good photographers aren't 'lucky' - they make their own luck by being in the right place at the right time...
True words!
Great advice and video...thank you!
Your video are always so goood! They make me want to go out and take pictcures. Congrats teo!
Your frames are ecstatic!
Interesting topic to becoming a better photographer. Thanks
Great advice. I think you should have your camera with you at all times. That's something I use to do. The only way your going to get that shot is to simply be there. Peace, my friend!
I really love the way your videos feel.
Look up Mick Williamson, he has been doing this for over 50 years! Totally agree with the concept. Another great video.
Great video and awesome message that's so simple.
Bin ein großer Fan von euch beiden und hat mich riesig gefreut diese "Kollabo" zu sehen :)
Aww das freut mich sehr, danke für den lieben Kommentar! :))

I watch ur yt videos so i must be on the right path to self improvement
Ohh yes, you're on a good path!
So thankful to Thomas Heaton for introducing me to you and to you for introducing me to Flo. Love film photography. Anyone knows which camera Flo was using?
Ohh what!? When did Thomas introduce you to me!? That’s so cool😍 Ahhh I don’t remember exactly, but I think it’s a Leica MP🤔
@@teocrawford He had a link to this video on his news letter 🙂
Hi Teo, your video is very inspirational. How I wish I could be as cool as you!
Very good video!! I really need to improve my video skills as well as photography skills
I’m a big fan! Can you show us an updated lumix gx85 set up?
LOVE

15 minute video summed up in 4 words : bring your camera everywhere
5:42 aawwww the doggy is so cute
I loved this videoo :) 💕
It reminded me of the feeling I get every time I take a photo of the sky! I don’t go out much and the sky… although it’s always the sky, it’s also always a different sky (I don’t know if it makes sense haha 😅), so I like when I notice it and take a picture!
It’s always here, its easy to photograph and it makes me feel present :)
Thanks for making this video! I think something clicked in my head! ✨
Thank you.
I disagree a little bit about the “keep your camera around your neck” thing. Personally I use a messenger bag with velcro. It’s super quick to open and take out the camera. I rarely skip potential photos. That said, I also spend a lot of time with my camera I hand (I use wrist straps) even when I’m on a bike. That is more for speed than for reducing friction in the “should I bother?” thought process.
Beautiful video. May I ask, what song was it that you used at the beginning?
Which Leica camera was your friend using? Thanks
Not only does that guy live near beautiful pine forests there is mist maybe pretty often? I could not be more envious! I always have a camera with me, but my photos don’t turn out that great. Still having fun with it though!
i recently started taking at least a point and shoot with me, even to work
I`ve been shooting film for over thirty years, a Leica M3 that I no longer own and a Nikon F2 that I use today, Film has gotten very expensive for me. I use Blue Moon Camera for optical prints and premium scans with flash drives. Cost of film and shipping, together with the optical prints, run over $100!
So I decided to purchase a Leica MD 262 digital camera the one that shoots like film with no LCD screen. The images from the Leica are too perfect!
My Nikon (film) camera produces a more relaxed, organic natural rendering. I like both formats but film is a winner for me except for the costs. I do use the Leica much more but just can`t stop shooting film...!
Hi Teo!
Thank you for such a valuable reminder - to have photography as a habit :) Your videos are pusre pleasure to wathc, from visuals, to the story and to the meaning you add.
When talking to Florian in a room, 12:36, what did you connect your mic to? Is it a mobile phone?
Seems like it's connected to the camera on the right with a simple extension cable...
@@dominik.zemanek.97 Thank you Dominik! For me the mic looks connected to smth on the table, which resembles a bit volumistic mobile phone.
Thank you for the kind comment! :)
Concerning the mic: It's like Dominik says - it's just connected to the camera using an aux extension cable :)
@@teocrawford Thanks for the reply!
Anyone know what strap Flo is using? Looks nice and not the ioe short one.
Your photography skills are getting better and better. I like your aesthetics.(๑´∀`๑)
Awesome
Hey there! 🌟 I'm currently navigating the 'broke but hopeful' phase of my life, where even dreams of owning a camera seem like luxury! 😅 Any tips on starting creative projects on a shoestring budget? Keep inspiring! ✨"
As a fellow broke person I’d say go to thrift stores and go often. Eventually you’ll find a decent film camera, digital point and shoot, or an old DSLR… Either that or buy them used! Hope this helps.
This can be good advice to an extent but I also feel like it’s a slippery slope to burn out. I love bringing my camera out into nature but I enjoy being able to go other places without it. Because the very act of bringing the camera kind of changes your intention and behavior, and I want my brain to be able to rest from that “gotta shoot it all” pressure.
