Dude you have such a strong way of articulating the intersection of all these elements that make great photos. A very well spoken analysis of the process!
I like that you called it visual patterns instead of rules because visual patterns refer to things embedded in psychology - they are things that masses of people have identified as "good" simply by how our brains are wired. Visual aesthetics can be learned (due to rules) but many of them are naturally occuring (patterns). Love this video, thank you for sharing
Yea that definitely is true but i find myself going back to my old photos when i was just taking them not thinking and not knowing of any rules but whit mindset of wanting to capture unique photo and the composition of them is more of wtf that is wierd than that is bad and they make me analyzing them more then just plane beautiful photos that followed all the rules as al the other same photos that followed the same rules. I would rather forget anything i learned then learn more about composition, tehnical side is needed tho. Authenticity wins for me as an artist more than a photographer, i would rather have bad photos in my own way than have them beautiful in others way.
Love the percentage chart. In essence, don't spend all your time on things that will only contribute to 20% of your output. Breathing and talking gear will only make have more expensive gear. Composition, composition, composition. Thanks so much, Pat. Cheers from Brisbane.
I am a newbie and found your explanations simple to understand. There is so much content out there it becomes really overwhelming starting out and you have a real gift pointing out what to look out for. thank you
I would say I already knew 75% of these tips already but its always nice to hear over and over again just to remind myself why I started photography. But also hearing it from someone else that does photography for longer.
I'm just starting out as a professional photographer and someone at my full-time job insulted me. Was looking for a little inspiration in getting better. Thank you for the video I subscribed
I'm an amateur and I learned real quick that you have to have an eye to make a good picture, not everything you see is necessarily a picture moment in my opinion, as you said here learn what good looks like. The rest will follow, it's like making a house you need to have a good foundation to be able to build a strong structure. Thanks for this video.
Great video as always. The learning process.. or journey of photography has always seemed so arbitrary. Often find myself being lost in what I should prioritise as a new photographer. Will be coming back to this video each time I feel that way. Thank you! 🙏
This content is PHENOMENAL! I have my degree in photography- and did not learn half of the things you mentioned in this video! What were my professors thinking? Anyways, THANK YOU for being so thorough in your explanations! You’ve reignited my passion in this art form once again! 🙏🏼 ✨.
I needed this so badly right now. Thank you for taking the time to create this video. I’m at the low point on the DK effect graph. The whole video has given me lots to think about.
Great video. Very informative. As a beginner photographer definitely will be using the knowledge shared in this video. Thanks for this. Keep up the dope content!
Been trying to get into photography for almost a year now, and I do know a lot of stuff about it (settings to get the correct exposure) but no where near professional. Thank you for posting this, it's really going to help me in my career.
One of the first times I can say I'm glad TH-cam suggest a channel. I actually watch it your vids from beginning to the end and learn something each time. Anther great video. Thank you.
This was so extremely concise and helpful thank you. ! I love how you breakdown the many different elements involved and stress the need for conceptual story.
Gave your video a shot, with all the videos on photography out there I wasn’t sure but…wow!!! You have some good points particularly VISION! love it man. Thank you for sharing
I found one thing that helped me get my exposure triangle in control was first two years I shot exclusively in manual. I almost took it too far to where I’d miss a shot because I wasn’t shooting in program mode lol
Wow thought this would be one of these videos "this is how I do things so you have to as well", but this has been a very objective and informative one. Nice work Pat!
8:50... oh yea, I cringe looking at my early on photos. I see them today and say to myself, oh that was bad! Now well past 100k photos long ago I have my own style. But as creatives we are always learning or going back and looking at things, hence why I came across your video today while watching a few others this one came up and I said, let's see if there's something I need to revisit. We can always work on something no matter where we are in our level of work.
Move, move move is great but I think there is so much value in STAY, Stay, stay for learning to understand the many ways to capture the scene in a new or hopefully improved way 😊
One thing I've been wondering about the exposure triangle is: does it have different qualities depending on the weights or is it all just trying to get hit the exposure goal and it doesn't matter much how you do it? Like if instead of low iso, high shutterspeed and low aperture, I had low iso, low shutter speed and high arpeture. Say those two configurations get to the same exposure, is the exposure the same in quality? So you're not actually get to a different visual result, it's just that you have to consider things like low shutter speed can cause a blurry image, so you have to consider how much 'shutter speed' budget you can burn before your image gets shaky etc.
I just love our way to tell a story. It's captive and you come across like an ultra-professional as well as a really likable person. Love it! Thank you!
Pat, I have watched your videos and subscribed. I like your analysis of the length of time to learn how to become a good photographer, it is what I have experienced over 14 years. You are a good teacher! Father Dan
Thank you for the video! Really helpful stuff. I am at the point where "the more I know the more I know I don't know" and that there is so much more stuff to learn!
Very good content. Not thought of using auto iso with manual but I suppose you have to use exposure compensation to lighten/darken image from ‘metered exposure’ because aperture or shutter speed changes will cause the iso to change to ‘compensate’. One thing I don’t agree with is your suggestion of using shutter priority semi auto rather than aperture semi auto. I use aperture priority often because most of my photographs are of stationary subjects (if I’m not using fully manual exposure.) This enables me to consider depth of field, selective focusing etc which for me are important creative considerations although if photographing sport or anything involving motion that I want freeze or include movement I will normally use shutter priority. You didn’t explain why you suggested that but I suppose it could be to avoid camera shake or for freezing motion. Other than that (but I am an amateur!) I thought your presentation style, content etc were very good indeed.
this for me has been the most valuable photography video; thorough and in-depth and detailed. am very grateful. came here through the fstoppers fb post. and now i subscribe to the channel and have learned so much already. do love the "first few years of all crap photos!" thing mentioned in one of the episodes, that made me laugh. accurate of course.
But I thought that only the latest greatest most expensive gear was the only way to ensure great composition in your photographs. Sarcasm. Great video! Cheers.
As a beginner photographer. This is where I’m at right now. I’m stuck right now. Trying to find that right photo to take. Some times it drives me nuts.
Hey Mr. Pat Kay. It feel soo good to watch your videos. I am not a photographer and I never thought of being a photographer infact. But the way you explain things are damn great. Still I have no plans of being a photographer but i would love to know about your ideas and explanation on your best work. It would be great if you could make a video where you explains the best photographs you took and the vision behind it. I am in love with the way you are teaching these skills. Thanks a lot !!
A lot of good information in this video! I would disagree, though, with the idea of comparing yourself to other photographers. At least, that is the way it came across. A "good" image is subjective, and what one person thinks is a good image may be a terrible image to another person. A lot of it has to do with the subject of the image and how the photo is framed. Just because one photographer chooses to frame a subject a specific way doesn't make it "right" or "good" over another framing. Maybe I misunderstood what you were saying, but just wanted to share my thoughts. Let me know if I completely missed the mark.
totally agree, only we can decide whether our photo is good or not, and to be completely honest if the goal is taking photos of specific things then watching other's work can be pointless; it does not contribute in any way to the end goal of taking the photos of things that interest us
Pat I just subscribed to your channel because I find your content full of substance with little fluff. I’m 48 and have only started photography in the last few years. I wish I had started much sooner because I regret all the lost time where I could have improved leaps and bounds. Right now I feel that starting this late I will only ever reach hobbyist or amateur proficiency especially since time is so limited with work and family obligations but I’m willing to try. I’m especially enamored with street photography, especially of the urban variety. Is there any book or website you would recommend to help me take my photos to the next level? Thanks in advance for your answer.
there's so many, but i grew up on a guy named Eric Kim; his photography blog is fantastic and he certainly has a unique perspective on the art. perhaps not the style of street photography that i personally like to do, but very good to learn from nontheless
@@kingelvis4688 It's never too late to learn. Due to life I had to take a decade long hiatus from photography. In some ways I feel the same as you. But as a lifelong learner, I find myself learning faster and improving faster than I think I would have when I was younger. Things that I used to struggle with come much easier to me, despite having a 10 year gap. Keep at it. Surround yourself with mentors, old and young, and you'll be surprised how quickly you can improve.
@@Endangeredcrypto Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. I agree with you that I need to surround myself with people, young and old, who are striving for the same thing. I’d like to look up a a workshop or two to take during the summer months when life is a little less demanding. I wish you the best on your artistic and photographic journey as well. Be well.
Hi Pat, enjoyed this video, very well put together and one thing i'm battling with is the gear issue, I see on forums, FB and all the other outlets pushing one into the latest and greatest costing thousands of dollars whether it's bodies or lenses. I'm using a 2017 model of Nikon D5600 and even though it's of now an old format, i'm just wondering if investing in the DX range of lenses for this camera is a good idea or not. Will there come a time when something goes wrong with this camera that I'll have all these lenses that are useless? What makes a Z lens any better than a AF lens except for maybe it's quicker autofocus performance? I have considered trying to buy into the cheaper end of the Z cameras and lenses and sell my current kit before i Invest too far into it. Maybe move to a different brand that have not changed it's mount system and any of their lenses can be used might also be worth considering. I don't have to stick with Nikon. Full Frame or Crop?
the vision/imagination is key, what is then seen comes from there, not from the gear, any gear can take great shots. The gear can improve the print, but not the thing studied.
My tutor from the Photography course I went to 10 years ago told us to always focus on the Aperture but here you say Shutter Speed- seems to me Aperture makes more sense as you can control the depth of field n decide how much to reveal in your picture. With Shutter Speed how often you need to freeze an image or make it flow ? What do you say to that?
Here are some timestamps:
Concepts:
1:03 - Photography is: 70% what's in the photo, 20% how you take it, 10% how you edit it.
2:35 - The real secret to getting better at photography is Vision.
3:14 - Understand what "good" looks like as fast as you can.
5:10 - Look to other forms of visual art for inspiration.
5:52 - Style isn't something you should really worry about at the beginning.
Craft:
6:19 - The exposure triangle.
7:24 - Photography "rules" are a bad way to think about them.
8:22 - Show me your first 100,000 shots.
9:07 - Break down skills and then create a habit to work on them.
9:51 - Always consider the light.
10:32 - Everything in your photo is deliberate.
11:22 - Subject, subject, subject.
12:23 - Move, move, move, and experiment.
13:18 - An image isn't finished until it's edited.
14:22 - Photowalk with other photographers and review their work.
15:02 - Some settings on Auto are totally fine.
15:44 - The power of planning and scouting.
Gear:
16:24 - Lenses over bodies.
17:05 - Learn gear specific skills.
17:51 - Learn the focal lengths.

The way you explain photography really shows how much you know it. You're on another level Pat
aw thanks so much, Andy! much appreciated!

100%, you got it! ease yourself into photography with those ratios initially, and then you can work out what works for you after you're comfortable :)
I can't agree more, Paul!

everytime I watch a Pat Kay Video, I learn a lot! That’s why I don’t skip ads. Thanks for sharing your insights.
Thanks!
I just started my photography journey and out of all the people out there on YT your videos have helped me out the most, keep up the amazing work Pat.
I love how you sectioned the video, it makes it easier for me to take notes. Greatly appreciated Pat!

got chu man! im sure some of these will come in handy every now and then!
Give yourself a project with small defined scope and work on that target.
I love hearing you talk. You always have a lot of substance and value in your videos. I hope your 2021 is going great.
aw thank you! mine is great. hope yours is too!

When that notification comes through, and you stop everything else to get insight to git gud at photography :)
Thanks for sharing, Pat!
haha i love the dedication. thanks!
Great tips! I wonder if you could show some examples of beginner photos and pro level photos and explain the differences.
This was so extremely concise and helpful thank you.

thanks for explaining it to me like I'm 5 years old, I'm feeling like I'm starting over again it feels great. so much to learn!
Wow thought this would be one of these videos "this is how I do things so you have to as well", but this has been a very objective and informative one. Nice work Pat!

Literally my biggest inspiration. Thanks again.
Move, move move is great but I think there is so much value in STAY, Stay, stay for learning to understand the many ways to capture the scene in a new or hopefully improved way 😊
One of the best tips I've ever come across on TH-cam, this helped me so much. Thanks Pat!!

this video is the most useful for beginners I've seen since I got interested in photography, congratulations buddy!
This is, without a doubt, the best photography related video I ever watched.
Great video and explanation, I fully agree with telling a story in a visual image
We’ll done! Clear, concise, and perfect for beginners such as myself. Thank you!
All my life I've been listening not to compare with others work and now i am told to do it with the best of the best xD
You’re tops Pat. I get so much out of your videos. Your video regarding feeling uninspired found me at the perfect time the other week. Cheers Mate!
That's how the cookie crumble...you can't polish a turb! Man, gotta love those expressions ! Great video, bro !
You mean, "turd"? 😅
LOL a bit vulgar, but it gets the point across 😂
I just love our way to tell a story. It's captive and you come across like an ultra-professional as well as a really likable person. Love it! Thank you!
Heya! Great video, thanks Pat! You mentioned breakdown the skills for each category of photography - would love to see a lesson on this!
I finally got my first camera and this is so useful - thank you sensei Pat!
Great tips !
Thank you! Your descriptions and definitions are so well worded and easy to comprehend. Straightforward, real talk is so appreciated.
dude you are awesome, i learn a lot with you. love your style. greetings from Argentina
OMG I didn't realize the polished turd was a thing. Thought it was a creative invention of the person who said it to me. Thanks for enlightening me!
Pat,
I have watched your videos and subscribed. I like your analysis of the length of time to learn how to become a good photographer, it is what I have experienced over 14 years.
You are a good teacher!

This is so insightful! Thank you!
Thank you for the video! Really helpful stuff. I am at the point where "the more I know the more I know I don't know" and that there is so much more stuff to learn!
Just bought a sony a6400 this will help me tremendously!
Great teaching! Thank you.
Dankeschön from Germany, very enjoyable and helpful your videos 👍❤️✨

Good points bro. I definitely thing taking the best possible photo first so you have to edit very little if anything
Thank you for the great lesson .
my pleasure :)
Thanks buddy. Very important points covered.
Amazing video..Thank God I came to it.. right tips with just right flavour.. :)
this for me has been the most valuable photography video; thorough and in-depth and detailed. am very grateful. came here through the fstoppers fb post. and now i subscribe to the channel and have learned so much already. do love the "first few years of all crap photos!" thing mentioned in one of the episodes, that made me laugh. accurate of course.
You just earned another subscriber man. Thank you for these tips!!
Thank you so much, you are my biggest insperesion and you have learned me so much
my pleasure! thanks for watching :)
Thanks so much for this Pat! These tips were excellent!
my pleasure!
But I thought that only the latest greatest most expensive gear was the only way to ensure great composition in your photographs.
Sarcasm.
Great video! Cheers.
Smashing it my bro!!! 🙌
cheers homie!
Pat. Just loving your approach. Loving it. Taking an art and science approach.
Much respect.
As a beginner photographer. This is where I’m at right now. I’m stuck right now. Trying to find that right photo to take. Some times it drives me nuts.
Like the way you talk - and like what you have to say. Great work

Hi Pat, enjoyed this video, very well put together and one thing i'm battling with is the gear issue, I see on forums, FB and all the other outlets pushing one into the latest and greatest costing thousands of dollars whether it's bodies or lenses.
