It was such a pleasure to share a day with you and talking about the things that really matter in the art of photography. Looking forward to seeing you again! Such an honour to have been interviewed by you! Cheers! Ps: folks, I also have a small YT channel, please go and give it some love!
You all should definitely check out Ortiz’s channel. Not many videos there yet, but each one is a gem! All about his journey in street photography, with beautiful background music. Trust me you can learn a lot from him.
@@ngtamphuong - oh I subbed right away. Wish he made more, but I'm already learning a lot. When he said "build from the background forward," a big lightbulb went off.
He spoke so confidently that I was drawn to not only the photos but also his speech. He brings out so many points that give an insight into how quickly he processes the scene and what he looks for when composing his images. What a great find, thank you for sharing.
Dear Tim, I think this video works like a short documentary. I think it's not an easy task to direct a video of the way another photographer works, but not get too intrusive. As someone who's been to Eduardo's workshop, I think this video gives a very good idea what one can learn from him. And those who don't have an opportunity to attend his workshop can still learn A TON from this short documentary. This video is brilliantly directed.
My man! I met Eduardo in Istanbul over 2 years ago and we spent a week hanging around and shooting… Unbelievably talented photographer but also such a great guy! Love him, and I’m so happy to see his talent recognised worldwide now, truly deserved 🩵
It’s gonna be almost 3 years bud😅… time flies! Honestly thanks a million for all the great feedback you have given me. Hope you’re doing well bro and hope to see you someday
holy sh... that was amazing. sometimes you got so caught up in the TH-cam world with always the same photographers you follow that it becomes so redundant and you don't see new stuff anymore. this video with Eduardo taught me a lot. thank you!
I love his approach so much, as well as his shots of course. Everytime I see a POV video with Eduardo I remind myself how "silly" the screen debate of cameras is regarding street photography. People often argue in forums that flip screen is better than articulating or whatever so you don't draw attention, and there is Eduardo with his fixed screen camera not even using it and standing with confidence among people/subjects without being rude or intrusive.
He shoots with a camera that’s 7 years old! I think that’s a great advocate for the argument that gear doesn’t matter, he still makes amazing shots with old gear always looking through the viewfinder. It was great to see his approach on person too, he’s very bold but very respectful
Wait a minute, photography influencers had told me Fujifilm AF is unusable, and that real photographers only shot with full frame cameras! Seriously, THIS is the kind of photography content we need, gear should not be the focus - subscribed!
Yup, a camera is just a tool to capture what a really good photographer is seeing. A really good photographer can tell a story with _any_ camera. They don't waste time pixel-peeping and obsessing about little gear differences and making excuses. They are too busy out in the real world taking photos and telling stories, instead of sitting indoors fretting about the gear and not taking photos.
Eduardo is so, so VERY good. I learned a lot in that 30 minutes. His eyes are so trained to look for opportunities and get that shot. Super fun to watch.
I came for another video about street photography and I just found GOLD! What a way to turn such common moments into great pieces of photography art. And he's from Chile too. Great to see how his mind works in order to catch the perfect moment of people and places.
As a classical musician (just now starting to appreciate photography), I've always cherished working alone and taking the time to get everything perfect, and this way of finding perfection (is perfection even the right word?) in passing moments is really moving. I find his attitude absolutely incredible, walking right up to someone and still getting them to either carry on with their lives or even participate...that's amazing to me. Awesome work!
Violinist and composer here...and I appreciate your insights! Isn't it fascinating? Particularly as you see here with street, which i love doing. i was pulled to moving image because it shares with music the insight of events occurring in time, but i love the still image as well.
That's true also! You are totally right that in the end, music is also about the passing moment. What i meant about taking time looking for perfection applies to all the hours that lead up to the recital, be them practicing or composing (or both), but the performance (arguably the best part) is fleeting
@eortizfoto that's very intriguing. Would you say that you were always so open that you could get into places like the ones shown here and just start shooting after a brief hello, or when you were practicing classical guitar you would have never done stuff like this?
@@EstebanRVwhen I was a musician I used to sing in bars, restaurants and the streets to get some extra cash. I think that moment in my life really worked my people skills. Also I worked as a cook for many years, being part of the team, even leading the kitchen sometimes. All skills fill up the same vase.
Wow haha loved how he walked into the tea house and just did his thing. The men picked up on his good energy and didn’t seem to feel any kind of weirdness or threat. It’s incredible how fear (in photography) often only exists in our own heads.
A good layered street photograph is so compelling! I love how excited Eduardo is to share his passion for the photos he takes. We should all be as energetic about what we shoot 📷
Genuinely the best of these street photographer style interviews I've seen. What a photographer and such a cool, engaging guy. Great video .... Just wish it was twice as long haha
I learned more from this video than all other street photography videos. I’ve watched over the years. I can’t thank you enough and now I’m heading out to try some other new skills. Cheers and much gratitude!
Très talentueux ! J’aime beaucoup ces compositions qui viennent si naturellement et si spontanément. Quel œil ! Bravo et merci pour ces partages qui sont une vraie source d’inspiration.
Eduardo is one of the best of his storytelling multilayered images. He is the best example that gear doesn't matter, what matters is who is behind it. He takes his meaningful pictures with his old Fuji XPro2 with the worst Fuji lens.
This is the most well balanced (seeing the photographic process and some of the images created), refreshingly practical, and inspirational photo walk video I've seen in a long time. ✨
Funny enough I have discovered street photography outside of chile. I haven’t photographed much in my home country indeed. But yeah, Valparaiso was exciting and learned so much about life there.
Absolute superb Tim. Well done to both of you! More please! But may I suggest you only do these interviews occasionally when you have an exceptional guest rather than feel obligated to produce a video every week, month etc Many thanks for the inspiration and tips
What a great episode! This is double-whammy for me, seeing good photography of Eduardo, done in Istanbul where I spent my college and young-adult years. Thank you.
This is the best video I’ve watched on street photography so far. This is so clear and useful. It helps it is all in action. It offers so much practical lessons. Composition, for example, is something I assumed I knew; Eduardo brings it to life. Excellent content.
Man Eduardo is one of my favs especially on TH-cam I love his work .he is very humble and always make these awesome photos taken..kudos for this experience you had wish I was u tim
Wow, what a great video. I admire his work and how he goes about shooting so freely. It could come across invasive, but you can tell he has good intentions. It's about the craft and I really admire that. Thank you for sharing and being you Eduardo Ortiz.
This is a truly incredible video!! So amazing to see a great street photographer in action. Really like how you recorded the whole session, it teaches you so much more than any formal photography tutorial out there
Eduardo seems like a very down to earth and nice man. I would love to be able to learn more from him and people like him. As someone who's new to photography, picking up information to help me understand how to better my shots from this video was very straightforward and easy to grasp. Great video, it feels like a short documentary and I really like that!
Ah so happy to hear that! Really made my day. I’m planning on making a lot more videos like this with different photographers so watch this space. In the mean time have you watched Paulie B’s Walkie Talkie series? Nuggets of gold there 👌🏻
I love this video! I’ve been trying to layer my photos for a while with mixed results. Eduardo’s description of how to do this may have helped me turn the corner. Thanks!!
🔴 Big thanks to Eduardo for sharing his skills in this video! Let us know what you think in the comments. Eduardo’s gear 👇 Lots of you are asking about Eduardo’s gear in the vid so here it is: Fuji X-Pro 2 & 23mm f1.4 Hope this helps show that you don’t need modern gear to make amazing pics 🙏🏻

One of the best videos about street photography! What an amazing photographer, I love his positive attitude.
Positive attitude is the only one we should bring to the streets 😊
Duuude this guy is bold. I loved his vibe and his work is astonishing!
Thank you!!! I wasn’t always like this. I just had a lot of time in the streets shooting.

Great learning moment for me at 17:00 on layering. Thanks, Eduardo and Tim ❤
Glad you enjoyed!
Love Ortiz's work, thank you Tim.
This video helps me to understand street photography much more than anything I've ever watched or learned. Thank you.
Ah thanks great to hear!
Great photography but also a very good interview, nice job! Subscribed.

My pleasure!
Thank you! It’s funny tho to see the word refreshing… bc I feel I have a more of an old school approach
