Been watching him since i started my photography career. I learned photography on TH-cam. I was able to quit my job and do my commercial photography full time for the past 5 years. Jared is one of the people i learned a ton from. Much respect. Love this interview. Very different from other TH-camrs that think their shit don’t stink.
Engaging with the community is a must not optional to any successful business on this platform. He’s not being the goat he’s just doing what he knows he needs to do to stay relevant.
@@hankypanky4u you would be correct if the Northrop’s did interviews like this. Or hopped on livestreams. When’s the last time you saw Peter McKinnon talk to the people in the comment section or engage with the chat? I’ve not seen any other large channels (over a million subs or close to it) engage with the community like Jared does 🤷🏾♂️.
Jared is the kind of guy that works to help people grow. He understands that not everyone has the ability to reach top end photographers to gain advice and he has work hard to help people with limited backgrounds improve. I haven't had the chance to shoot professionally but I have had multiple professional photographers look at my work and be totality impressed and encouraging for me to go professionally. A lot of what I have learnt has been from Jared videos.
This is the kind of content that gets me excited. Well executed! Been watching Jared for years. I remember being so pissed at him because a new camera I purchased and he deemed it a piece shit. Oh man was he right.
Great stuff Ryan. Jared is the real one. I agree with him that TH-cam base is more important than TikTok. TH-cam teaches you in proper non rushed way and allows you to create strong community when other socials like TT or Instagram are meant to be just quick fix of dopamine and nothing more. People will understand that when they will decide to grow their knowledge in certain niche instead of just swiping like junkies 😅 Keep up great work and shout out to Jared for making this interview !
@@SilatShooter thank you! I wanted to go for different questions than just gear so I could get to know his thinking more when it comes to the content we see
@@RyanTroy truly on point! There's such an obsession with gear review, it's too much redundancy and frankly boring. This interviews was super informative.
I appreciate this video as I was upset by the whole Greg Gazillo issue as I was an avid channel watcher at the time and developed a resentment for Jared ( even though I have purchased 3 or so of his video guides) due to what I saw happening. I have finally come to a point of being able to let that go and possibly feel comfortable with exploring the Fro channel again.
Nice interview. Jared was dropping unpopular gems 💪🏽. The main reason that I got into shooting all the brands that I do, came from teaching new photographers the basics of photography. I understood that I wasn’t fully effective by only knowing Nikon and Canon. I eventually realized that other brands had great things to offer like Sony coming in with eye autofocus, Fujifilm’s unbeatable RAWs, and Olympus offering 60 fps burst rate years before the competition. The Nikon fanboys hated Jared for speaking the truth, but I’m glad he stayed on course.
Great job Ryan. I love Fro. I think that many people that don't like him simply misunderstand him or simply don't like his opinions... even if they agree with them. I also feel like some people like to put words in his mouth and misinterpret what he says.
I agree. It was important to me when doing this interview that I would show a different side of what people thought of him by asking different questions than many would ask. Thank you!
Surprised you only focused on his older content. Seems like he’s in his prime over the past few years. Like he said, it’s best to try out every brand. Most of my gear decisions have been based on his more unbiased stuff lately, where back in the day it was more nikon or die
Well I was really trying to focus on him as far as his career on youtube. I really didnt want to touch on gear like that but just things he has learned and implemented in content creation throughout the years.
Jared is no nonsense and phenomenal at his work. He's the reason I bought my first Nikon D200 body only which was weird back then. But he was right a lot. Also using other brands because the wedding businesses used particular brands. So you had to know them all. Canon,Pentax, Hasselblad...film or the new digital format. Back then. Great interview. PS I Jared would bring back the POKER TABLE 🏆...Video 🥇
Im a cery well established photographer in Australia....I could do youtube and bang on. But .....its addiction ...5he world is affidted to watching youtube instead of doing photography or enjoying life. TH-cam is about personality and spunk factor. And you either have it or dont. I dont want to do be another gear review. The world is addicted to distracting themselves. And this is nit being critical of fro know or tony northcott...or peter mckinnons I applaud these poeole for doing it But i watch some vidoes that make me think and challenge me
Here's a clue, real photographers don't wax and wane endlessly on gear. They pick the tool for the job and use it. And they SHOW PHOTOS .. not of gear. but of other things. The gear heads aks collectors only show and photo gear. The problem for those that catered to the collectors is the technology has plateaued and all the gear has been reviewed and techniques addressed ad nauseum. So they have less content that hasn't already been beaten to death.
I don’t get it…you were just asking questions and he sounds like he’s angry at…someone…the whole time. Why’s he so angry. Who’s he so angry at, or is he just an angry asshole?
He or anyone is free to talk Like they want. He can come to my house and curse at me on the front porch. I don’t care. Just watch the video. These aren’t confrontational questions. They’re just neutral photography type questions but Jared just has this hyper defensive attitude like he’s angry but there’s no one to be angry with. Just watch it. I’m not the only one who sees it. Just an observation. I found it weird. He’s free to be him and I’m free to think he’s an asswipe. All good.
If it wasn’t for TH-cam, nobody would know who he is. He is a mediocre as professional photographer, his photography will inspire no one. He is popular because he is a TH-camr, if it wasn’t for his TH-cam channel nobody would know who he is. Same for Tony Northrop. It’s sad we are reduced to getting our cometary by mediocre photographers instead of the greats. But, ya know the greats are busy taking photos. Yes, I’m the ass hole, and also a mediocre photographer, I was hard on JP to make a point, he looks man enough to take it.
I owe everyone an apology. I got no beef with JP, and may be taking it out on him inadvertently. I do have beef with Tony Northrop, after his hate piece on the Afghan Girl photographer: Steve McCurry. After Tony’s flat out lies he spread on TH-cam, I’ve been quite sour on TH-camrs and their false credibility. Sorry.

The best Jared Polin interview I have ever seen. 💯
That means a lot! I really appreciate that!

Stuff like this is really what makes Jared the GOAT. Shout out to him for taking the time to engage with the community!

I prefer this more authentic version of Fro. The advice was honest and generous.
Great interview Ryan, well done!
Great Interview. Learned a lot about Jared. Good of him to show a different side of his life on YT.
NICE!!!!! You got JP on here!!! He was 1 of the first people I watched religiously when I first started some years ago!!

Subscribed on the strength of this interview and your content. Great job Bro!
Terrific content, felt honest and authentic and very informative. Super interesting and much appreciated!

Thank you! also that is great to hear. i forgot all about the greg stuff until this interview lol
Great interview. Thanks for sharing this.
Yoooooo great interview Ryan. Great questions and great answers from Fro as well. I throughly enjoyed it.
Thank you bro!
Great interview Ryan. Good that Jared Polin agreed to be interviewed and answering the questions.
Thank you! I definitely learned a lot while interviewing him.
Good interview and good knowledge that was shared. 👍🏽💯
@@StunnafulPhotography thank you!
Great video! Well done, and really enjoyed the business side discussion of TH-cam.
Thanks Jeff! I learned a lot too. Im going to try to implement some stuff on my channel from it
Great interview. The clip of his dad was nice 👍🏽
Thank you!

definitely. I learned a lot from doing this interview.
this is probably the best interview with jared i have seen to date
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Great interview
TH-cam TV has over 2 billion subscribers around the world. People aren't paying for cable anymore. I use TH-cam TV every day. Long form is the best.
They have 8-10 million TV subscribers.
Great job Ryan. I love Fro. I think that many people that don't like him simply misunderstand him or simply don't like his opinions... even if they agree with them. I also feel like some people like to put words in his mouth and misinterpret what he says.

Nice job on this interview! Enjoyed it!
Thank you!!!
My opinion... Mechanics use all types tools ,scanners,
Learning all systems make you professional to me. Only knowing one brand is lazy.
Great content, thank you👍
Thank you!!
9:31 lots of people don’t realize you can rent… or often forget you can rent.
Great interview!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you Linda!
😂 Ritz Camera...wow!!
I have always liked Jared, but now I like him even more. He is REAL. Like a guy I would like to hang out with, my kind of friend
Agreed!
The man on my top list along with the photographer who took that iconic Photo of Trump recently.wow oldman too business savvy learning a lot 🔥🔥🔥
I learned a lot myself

@@RyanTroy I thought it was a great interview with lots of valuable insights. Thanks!
Was more referring to the b-roll shown, all ancient videos at this point
Jared is if Cornel West discovered photography…..
Do you have any desire to move to medium format? I didn’t see you make any videos on Hasselblad or Fuji GFX.
Jared is no nonsense and phenomenal at his work. He's the reason I bought my first Nikon D200 body only which was weird back then. But he was right a lot.

I call TH-cam TH-cam University or YTU
Lol!
This man never crop and never shoot jpeg LOL
And never shoots using the rear screen. Gotta get the lines straight 😂😂😂

He didn’t speak in a tone for liking? You’re too soft to be on the internet.

😂🎉😂
Angry 😂🎉😂
He seems pretty happy to me😂🎉😂
@@ericwilson2632...really??....you like him a lot
He’s a successful TH-camr, not a successful Photographer.
Some people just like misery. Tell that to his clients,which he showcases on his channel. Some through his Real World reviews.
Define “successful” as a photographer. Then, show YOUR work in front of millions. A*****e comment.
If it wasn’t for TH-cam, nobody would know who he is. He is a mediocre as professional photographer, his photography will inspire no one. He is popular because he is a TH-camr, if it wasn’t for his TH-cam channel nobody would know who he is. Same for Tony Northrop.

Sorry.
Why does he sound angry ??🤔
I’d take YT subscribers over TikTok followers everyday off the week and twice on Sunday 😂
Big Facts!
He still thinks ISO is an acronym😅
That comes from the film days, when people used to use ASA as an acronym.
