Don't know if it has been brought up before, but could you maybe do a video in the future breaking down the business aspect of a shoot like this? How you go about pricing (charging/paying), getting your team together, renting equipment or sets, etc. I think it would be great to get your perspective on it especially since you're in NY. Thank you for your time.
I believe this was an editorial for an online magazine, so you get zero to little pay. It's more to get your name out there for brands to hire you as a photographer for their ads. Ads for brands is where you get the money from.
Duckwrth's energy is amazing I watched him perform last September at my college and I can totally feel the same energy that radiated from him back then in these photographs
You absolutely do not need a medium format camera to get started, this is like the rolls royce of cameras. A full frame frame Canon R series for about 5000 is like a decked out suv, I personally have started with a Canon M6 Mark II for 1000. Small and does everything i need and can use both EF and EF-M lenses. Also theres always used. Speaking of everything, the hasselblad is absolutely killer at pictures, but is practically useless at taking video.
It’s revered as the greatest and most extraordinary camera in the world. Out of every camera in existence, it was selected to be the first camera to go into space for the Apollo program and moon landing. It is the camera that went to the moon. Any yahoo can buy $1000 smartphone or Canon or Nikon (and has), but most photographers fantasize about even holding a Hasselblad, let alone owning one.
these photos make me nostalgic for days ive never lived! these are amazing. love that you show us the angles you shoot at and the images that are produced as a result.
Been SOOO SOO excited for this video Will, Congratulations didn't disappoint. Really happy for you that you are getting noticed in the industry and people are noticing you
Man you are an inspiration and consistently drive me to push my own work as you are in a position I only dream of. Big thanks for that, keep producing the amazing content you do and I don't see you stopping any time soon
This looks so incredible. I've never been so in love with film! I'm thinking about buying Mamiya Rz67 and your videos truly helped me with a lot of information! The hasselblad looks like a dream, and the set up is simply gorgeous! Thank you for sharing this!
I don’t think that I’ve ever been inspired by a photographer on TH-cam and I don’t think I’ve seen anyone with your style, approach, or eye. Love this content 🥺
I love the look that comes from film, and I always have a tough time because I dislike most aspects of shooting film and the inconvenience, but you really can't argue with the incredible quality of the peak of digital photography. Holy shit.
Easily one of your best videos and behind the scene shoots you've done. I loved the pace of the editing, the reference photos, and how detailed you were about your creative process. Just wow dude congrats!
super informative. I love how you really hit on how duckwrth was in front of the camera and how much that helped the shoot. Definitely going to try and give my models the confidence to perform in front of the camera more in the future.
Hey man, great touch using the source four for your spot light. It gives these shots a great feel, especially shooting a musician. I’m a stagehand / lighting tech and stage lighting tends to inspire ideas for my photography as well. Cheers.
Boi, love your content. Ended up picking up a Hasselblad H2 with film back a couple of days before your first vid with this one, glad I did and the results are unbelievable!
Hi Willem, found you channel recently and love your videos. I really like how you explained this photoshoot! Very entertaining and interesting. Keep up the good work!
You're such an amazing photographer. I'm a photographer too and you're one of my biggest inspirations. I love your work man...I learn a ton from each one of your videos. Godbless 🙏. Also love how you incorporate lo-fi music to all of your videos.
Great video brother amazing to see how u and the team worked together to get these images. Duckworth really did seem to match the energy of trying to get a good photo as well
It’s been nice to see how your videos have improved over the months. You just seem to have more energy and feel more comfortable. Though I will say your voice over felt a little rushed but the video overall was tight!
That close-up with the flare off the earring was a stunning shot.
Thank you Michael!
Truly a money shot!
In fact, that's not a sharp one
Willem, dude, you’re such a gifted educator. Thank you for this and others. Beyond insightful. Cheers!
Thank you so much!!!

Exactly! I came to a point where I lost interest in the gear, and became fascinated with the logistics of a shoot such as this!
Yes I definitely agree.

@@RyanRolshouse I definetly feel this too!
I see Willem Verbeeck. I click it. I love it.
Duckwrth's energy is amazing
I watched him perform last September at my college and I can totally feel the same energy that radiated from him back then in these photographs
Yea I totally agree!!
you're so creative, man.. balancing these amazing videos with your incredible photography is amazing. and congrats on 50k subs!

Best TH-camr. Photographer. Cinematographer. Educator. There is. So good. Your work is amazing.
Me: *new to photography*

*Googles*
Me: €35.000, okay then......

If you want a cheap medium format camera, buy Pentacon Six TL. But complete CLA must be done.

Whoever records these videos deserves a raise. The quality is so good.
I don’t think that I’ve ever been inspired by a photographer on TH-cam and I don’t think I’ve seen anyone with your style, approach, or eye. Love this content 🥺
The use of lighting is amazing with these shots bro. You're insane!!!
I love the look that comes from film, and I always have a tough time because I dislike most aspects of shooting film and the inconvenience, but you really can't argue with the incredible quality of the peak of digital photography. Holy shit.
