#landscapephotography #KZhead #photography
I retired six years ago and decided to dive into photography. About 5 years ago, I attended a photography conference where you were the keynote speaker. You encouraged the audience to start channels and that stuck with me. So in 2020 I started a channel and it's given me a real purpose. It's definitely helped my photography, for the exact reasons you stated. Thanks!
I’m a sub too 🙂
Hey John, I'm glad you started a channel. I enjoy watching your videos. Keep it up.
@@gregsnell hey brother! Thanks!
@@craigpiferphotography thanks! I'm uploading a new one for tomorrow.
I echo the others! Also subbed! Keep making videos - you’re doing great!
9:56... C'mon, Thomas. You ARE world famous. We love you. Your work is beautiful and you give so much of yourself to the channel. Admirable. Please keep it coming.
Doing this switch in your head from photo to video shoot is I think what makes your videos so enjoyable to watch. I often have my mind blown watching all the b-rolls you do. Walking away, walking towards, parking your car, driving away. I'm astonished by how much you focus on that and I would never have the patience to do all that. When I'm thinking that all those times you have to walk back, or stop your car and get out to get camera, I just can't grab my head around it how much additional work this is. I think this makes your trips at least twice longer (if not more) than they could be if it would be just photo shoot. But in the end I think that is the very important reason, why your videos are so enjoyable.
Congratulations Thomas! One thing I think you forgot to mention is the need for a supportive family. I don't think the average person realizes how much time and effort is involved in editing these wonderful videos!
I'm 80! Always great to watch! Very well done! Extremely hard and heavy work! Congratulations!
Sound advice. Congratulations on 10 years. Here’s to many more 😊
Like you say Thomas, the KZhead viewers are the older generation. I am just coming up to my 64th birthday and I believe I have been following you from the start and before when you were on Flickr. Way back then you gave me advice on where to park up for the night at Glen Etive and I loved the fact that you were so willing to share the information. I do also understand now why so often the details of precisely where a view is located is best kept to yourself. I don’t share myself if i think that all the individual wants is to bag a shot and then go. When it is someone who understands nature and landscapes, are passionate about it and caring, only then will I share. But this is about you, and your birthday on KZhead. If I had to choose a favourite video it was the one when you parked up and took us along with you, blind folded, to the shore. This showed just what a wonderful poet you are with the most amazing ability to find the right words to describe the beauty around you, where others are so often lost for words. HAPPY BIRTHDAY. 🎉
I’m not a photographer but your videos and calendars have inspired me to get out there!! I start my family channel for exactly that, and now I have multiple adventures I can look back on as my kids grow up. Everest Base Camp, snorkelling in the Maldives to my son losing his first front tooth. All because I found a landscape photographer that shared his adventures. Thank you for all that you do, you have help this father make some memories with his kids worth remembering!! Stay safe From an Australian Dad
I think one of your skills and/or qualities is that you are honest, the absence of BS is noticeable. Thanks Tom keep up the good work!
First of all Thomas, I would like to say congratulations on 10 years of UTube and very well deserved. I always enjoy your video's no matter what topic like this video explaining how to go about making a UTube video and advising people how to do it. Look forward to the next video.
Congrats on 10yrs! Definitely a big inspiration to my photography and KZhead channel 😁
Timely advice, for me personally, as I recently launched my own channel. It does take a real effort to shift to a video producer from photographer. I’m still feeling my way as to what might work, but you’re 100% about being true to yourself. People spot a fake a mile away. Thanks Thomas. Incidentally, I came to your channel during your dip. You may not have noticed, but it looked like you were struggling with your photography. It was your style and personality that kept me coming back. And now, you’re back and better than ever!
Just over 18 months in, and I'm about ready to throw in the towel! Well done on lasting so long
Been here since the Canon 5D Mk2 days. I think it takes a special person to want to do KZhead and very much appreciate what you do! I know it takes more effort than people think. Personally, I have never connected with video creation... But I am happy enough having a job and having photography as a hobby!
Just for you to know... I will always support your channel because your work is absolutely amazing!
You always have to go with your heart. Looking forward to your camper van videos too.
Yep.. is true. I keep looking on demographics on my other channel related to amateur radio and most of my audience is 60+ and I kind of like it because they are wise people and always leave smart comments that help me improve. When it comes to photography, it's been an year since I keep saying I will start making video on my channel since I know it will also make me go out a lot more. I kept postponing that thinking "maybe is a little late". So this video was more like a kick in the back to move forward and actually start making some videos. Thanks so much for this. P.S. To make you feel better in the bad days.. I think I'm watching you for the past 6 years simply because you also show those $hit days too when things don't work out well. So the videos always make me feel like we are out for a chat somewhere.
A lot of the tips hit home with me. Having a small photography channel myself, I experienced a lot of the same stuff already. Being consistent with weekly uploads has eluded me so far. I make videos when I can and when I feel it’s worth it. Resulting in a very slow growth to the channel 🫣. Thanks for sharing your genuine perspective ✌🏻
I think it was primarily both yourself and Nigel Danson that inspired me to start my channel - glad to see you're still enthusiastic about it about 10 years. I wish I could say the same about video/photography becoming second nature - I still find it hard to do my best photography when making videos. I wouldn't change it though - like you said it opens up a huge and engaged audience and that's worth a lot. Keep up the good work. 🙂
This video was awesome mate, better then a lot of these so called “grow your KZhead” or “the secrets to KZhead” and what they put out. Actual useful information in under 20 minutes that aren’t behind a paywall or telling us everything we already know. And the newsletter is awesome. Been a subscriber since around 2019 (from a previous channel I had) Great work mate😊
Effort, quality, honesty, humour and humility. You bring all these to KZhead in abundance Thomas and others should really take note. You only get out what you put in and I hope your excellent advice resonates and helps to encourage others to commit and grow their own offering.
Thomas, you are a part of my wife's and my Sunday Afternoon "date". We look forward to your videos every week.
I think this may be your most meaningful video, for me, that you have done. Thank you. When we were instructors together back years ago in Moab, and we rode up to the LaSalle Mountains with Ryan Smith, I thought to myself I really need to do videos to be more relevant. As I started doing more videos, I felt my photography did suffer, and I started losing the joy of what I was doing landscapes for to be begin with. I rarely do videos now, but my enjoyment of what I am doing is back to where it should be. Thank you for you informative honesty! Cheers.
Thanks Thomas, and greetings from Colorado! I started my KZhead Channel a few years ago. I can attest to how hard it is! I have so much respect for your consistency and professional production. I took a break from making videos for a few months while I focused on building my website, and writing for different platforms. During that time I continued to see some slow growth on my channel. I've been doing shorts as a way to stay active on the platform without the time investment for longer, story-based videos. After watching this inspirational video, I am eager to get back to making longer videos again. BTW, I still pull out your "Landscape Photography On Location Vol 1" book regularly. Love what you do, so keep it up!
Congratulations on 10 years and kudos for maintaining such high standards. Speaking as someone with a fledgling channel, some timely and sage advice here.
Wow....what a testament. Whether you know it or not you are a great entertainer. You are very informative and funny. Thanks for what you do and your willingness to share. I truly look forward to my weekly "Thomas Time". God be with you and yours.
I've never missed any video on this channel since 2018, and now I understand why:) You are the best!
Think I have been with you for all your KZhead life if not most of it. You have developed into one of the best on hear and I for one look forward to your Thursday video. But I do have to agree with Karen comment, your wife is the star, allowing you to disappear all the time, she's a trooper. Here's to another 10 years but I think I will stick to my competitions.
I’ve been doing it 2 years now, man it’s tough making videos and talking to camera, while trying to figure out thumbnails and titles etc. you inspired me to start making YT videos, after I started watching you, it only took me about 4 years to start my own channel lol. Thanks for 10 years worth of content.
Good stuff Thomas. I must say that I am amazed at the quality that you and some other KZheadrs put out. The content is rich in information and entertainment value and beautifully created by one person! I'd say it's good and often better than what we might see on mainstream TV when a production team of a dozen or so people might be involved! Keep up the good work!
Some great advice there Tom! I'm launching my first video on my channel next Friday! It's something I've always wanted to do, and I've finally got the confidence to put myself in front of a camera haha. This video has definitely given me some things to think about as I move forward, love the idea of switching your brain from doing a photo to a video shoot.
Great advice Thomas, I've been toying with the idea of a KZhead channel for years, but have zero video or editing knowledge! I think I have an interesting niche that viewers would engage with, but don't know how to produce a video. Maybe I should just take the plunge. One reason I continue to watch your videos (besides the excellent photography) is your personality, even on the days where everything is against you. Keep up the good work of inspiring others...
Fab video Thomas. Some really great points. As someone with a tiny channel it can be tough when you make a video you think is good and hardly anyone watches, but as you say you have to keep plugging away. Well done and thanks👍👍🙏
G'day Thomas, great video, you actually inspired me to start my channel a number of years ago and I thank you for that. I totally agree with everything you have said, and I feel so fortunate to have such a wonderful community of fellow photographers to share this passion with. Keep up the great work and thanks for inspiring us all. Cheers, Duade
I find it interesting that several of the elite photographers I follow are publishing introspective videos now about their KZhead experience. Some have announced a pullback of content and effort. I completely understand why. I did start a channel as well, but for various reasons including health, have let it slip recently. I enjoy putting out information that might be helpful, and have virtually met some wonderful people in return, but KZhead is and always will be just another interesting pastime for me. I have to say, though, Tom, that the production value of your content is second to none. I can image how much effort it takes. That you have a realistic expectation of what you get in return makes it all the more better.
Really inspirational video, thanks Thomas! I set up my channel about 4 weeks ago and I'm really enjoying creating and publishing videos that share my story and (hopefully) give some value, entertainment, and information to viewers. I'm still trying to find my feet on KZhead but it's a fun process. I especially like your tip about approaching days out at video shoots rather than photo shoots - I think I could definitely benefit from that mindset shift! Someone on Reddit recommended your channel, and I'm glad I found it and have subscribed!
Man I love your videos! I genuinely look forward to watching your videos every week
Dude, you are already world famous! And we all enjoyed your journey and are proud of your fantastic adventure.
Dude you are already world famous..iam learning everytime you post a video...keep ging on.
I started my channel around five years ago. I literally have 177 subscribers and that's it so far. I keep thinking it'll take off one day. I try not to get obsessed with getting more subscribers although it would be nice. My video's are ok I have posted around 68 video's including shorts. Few are not even related to photography. I would like to think some of the photos I've posted are genuinely awesome shots. Bottom line I enjoy doing youtube and I do it more for myself than anything. I have invested a lot of money in gear and hope to eventually travel and post more youtube videos. Thanks for the insight into the good the bad and the ugly.
Stick at it mate enjoy what you do if others agree the subs will come I’m 7 years in and only this last 12 months have I seen a decent bit of growth by my standards at least. I’ll go give ya a sub
I feel that! I have also been at it for a few years and still only a few hundred subs. I have decided to do the videos I want to watch myself. I can't adapt to fit some algorithm. That would take away the fun for me.
spot on mate do it for you bugger the algo, if others join you that's a bonus....I'll sub ya now haha @@MartinFransson
@@paultaylorphotography9499 thanks, man 🙂 I see my own content almost like a diary for myself sometimes, a way to get a quick recap of what I've done 🙂
Exactly right mate I treat mine the same, something for my kids and my grandkids to rip the mick outta me long after I'm toast. haha@@MartinFransson
I'm here since the beginning of your channel. Thanks for all your effort and inspiration for all those years, hope I can keep watching for the next 10-20 years and hopefully meet you in a landscape in the world. Cheers Tom
Brilliant video and advice for any aspiring KZheadr. Thanks Thomas, what an amazing watch 👌🏻
Thomas, you put out one of the most sincere, honest videos I've seen in such a long time... I've been on KZhead for 6 years... 8 years older than you... you have a passion that truly shows... thank you and wishing you all the best
Well Tom, I can still remember coming accros your very first video over nine years ago, I think two weeks after you uploaded it. I remember thinking that it was a bit on the steady side and needed a little bit of refinement at the time. However there was something at the back of my mind telling me to keep watching as you had something a little bit different than a lot of others around that time. Obviously I did keep watching and it didn't take long for you to develop you own style and produce some very interesting and well made videos. I have to agree with you that you need commitment to produce constantly interesting content and that is probably why most of the good photography KZheadrs do it full time, it must be very hard to commit the time required whilst holding down a full time job or full time business at the same time. Keep up the good work, I like many others look forward to your videos each week. I know you are always looking for different areas to visit, especially areas that don't seem to have been visited by photography KZheadrs before, may I recommend the the Rhinog Mountains area in central Snowdonia, I'm sure you will easily find plenty of park ups around the many back roads.
Sound advice - loving the videos lately
Thank you Thomas. That was an inspirational video. I’ve been plugging away at my own photography for 4 years now. Watching your channel was a big motivator for me in learning how to “fly” a DSLR and ultimately starting my channel. My takeaway from your video today is giving my viewers value. I love my little community of followers and you’ve spurred my on to keep making content for them. Kudos to you 🙏
I don’t have a channel, but I am one of the folks who watches each video when they come out on Wednesday. Your videos have given me many hours of enjoyment and inspiration. Plus you’ve introduced me to other folks and channels which I watch each week. (Gavin, Adam, Mads for example). While I’ll probably never get to Mongolia or Antarctica to photograph those places, I’m able to “sort of” visit through your videos.
Thanks for the video! I have been producing KZhead videos for over two years, and have found much of your advice to be spot on. I too have found that slow steady growth is the way to go. Although at only 211 subscribers, I have found it rewarding to just be passionate, and knowing the difference between a video shoot and photoshoot. Thanks again! Come visit Northern Michigan, you will not be disappointed. 😊 Cheers!
Thanks for this inspiring video Thomas, I've personally really been struggling with the idea of committing to my YT channel. I like the idea of it, but have always been confused as to how to approach the process, how to come up with the content to make (Aside from me just randomly yacking into a mic). I do like the idea you spoke of around making the commitment to produce SOME kind of content. I really appreciate this video, it has given me some inspiration to sit down and come up with 5 ideas of things I'd like to make a video about. Thanks again Thomas
Been watching you from the early days Thomas and you've been a big inspiration. Top tips in this one - particularly about the switch from photo to video. Thank-you :)
I started a KZhead channel about a year ago. My channel is not about photography, it is about finding yourself in retirement. I started it because I was into photography. I loved using my camera. And I love tech. It is not easy to get the channel going. One has to commit to doing a video almost every week. Which I have not done. Since my income does not depend on it I have not worried about it. But it is fun to do. I love your channel and watch every video you put out. Don’t ever stop!
Honestly I’ve tried to film tester videos in the past with an aim of getting the skills and vibe together for a channel if my own, and always struggled. But your advice about distinguishing between a photo or video shoot is so useful, you’re so right!! Thank you
I believe I'm currently in the learning-to-drive-phase. I notice it's geting easier for me to come home with enough content for B-Roll, enough material to get a video out of. But I can very much relate to what you said about noticing the images suffer. I'm very much occupied with recording the right bits and pieces and more often than i'd like am distracted from taking the photographs. I hope practise makes perfect and one day I won't be a threat to traffic anymore. Figuratively speaking. We all know good weather conditions render us all incompetent just keeping the eyes on the road. That being said: you're probably my biggest influence in all of this and thinking back...I can't tell which one was the first video of yours I watched but it was pretty early on I believe. And I haven't missed one video since. Please keep doing what you do.
Thanks Thomas, Some really great advice here. Keep up the great work you Legend!
You are a very admirable photographer, Thomas.
Really enjoyed this. I’m at about 18 months in and went from completely unknown in photography to slowly growing my name on social media. I’ve only just hit 850 subscribers but most of that happened in the last 12 months. It’s a slow, steady growth. Watching this reassured me that it’s going perfectly fine
Thank you for this informative video and also for your equally informative weekly newsletter. I started following you years ago when your channel was recommended in an issue of Outdoor Photography magazine here in the UK. I can't remember when that was, but I did go back and watch your earlier videos as a result as well as watching all your new uploads.
Good information. I started watching you as you built out your van , but stayed because of your interesting content. Your perspective on KZhead is refreshing
I found this very helpful! Although 6 months late since I am now on my third channel 😆 Beware the burnout folks! And don’t be like me and close down your channel just to remember that making videos and learning the process is fun…and then having to restart at 0. That exclusive tip would have saved me so much frustration with my photography in 2023!
Thank you for this and I know that I will not be thinking of a KZhead channel but really enjoy yours. Photography is for me, fun, an escape, an interest and my hobby. As always, an interesting update and giving both sides of the coin. 👍👏
I love this Mr. Heaton. Thank you for the video.
Great video Thomas. This is exactly what I needed as I’ve been toying with a KZhead channel. Thanks for sharing.
All well deserved success Thomas! Long time subscriber and its easy to see how you developed such a large following. Keep up the great work and keep creating the fantastic art you do.
The voice of EXPERIENCE is so much better that an ALGORITHM! I have been following you for nearly the whole 10 years!! Congratulations on a continued success in the career. Quality, interesting subjects and reality have always impressed me. I'm 70yo in Australia and I too am a enthusiastic Landscape photographer. I always look forward to your weekly VLOGS, and sad when you can't get one out now an then. Out of all the KZhead photographers, I admire yours most of all. You also introduced me to Nick Carver (LOVE HIS STYLE) of communication and engagement ! Not so much his subject content but the way he keeps true to his passion! I wish you even greater success in the next TEN YEARS! ....... Till next week...CHEERS TH
Thanks for years of high quality and interesting videos. It really feel like a journey that has been nice to be part of, even if just on the other side of the screen.
Keep up the good work. Ive found great inspiration amd motivation from watching your channel over the years.
Thomas, I remeber when I first found your channel when you were first starting out. You and your videos inspired me to get out more frequently and shoot more often! Eventually I too started a channel and have slowly been getting more comfortable with making videos and trying to explain things. Thank you for what you do, and continue to do! Cheers my friend! Congrats on 10 years, and here is to many more!
Tom, the timing of this couldn’t have been better for me. I just recently committed to weekly uploads for a year, and you’ve long been one of my favorite channels. Hearing this down to earth encouragement and advice from you was incredible. Seriously, thank you!
Congrats on 10 years Thomas. Your landscape photography has been an inspiration to me and your the way you approach photography and present your videos made me want to start recording and editing my own landscape work. Cheers to more!
This is one the most honest and helpful things I’ve seen on KZhead. Many thanks for sharing and inspiring 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 ps love your channel, entertaining, informative, inspiring. Keep going, love it ❤
Ive been a fan and loyal viewer of yours since 2017. Wouldnt think to miss an episode. I guess I'm one of those strange people who are eternally grateful for folks like you who put out this kind of valuable content on a regular basis. Thank you for being consistently present and always trying to add value to our KZhead enjoyment. 😊
Great Video Thomas, Congratulations on 10 years on KZhead! A very timely and well targeted piece, Thank you for telling your story,
Great work Thomas. As always, honest and valuable. And timely for me - I started, then chickened out. But wanting to return to posting content. Just find the whole "talking to a camera" (especially in public outside) really hard. But hopefully soon. Thanks man.
When I discovered your channel, 5 or 6 years ago I started watching all your videos from the beginning because there was a peacefulness coming from them. You hiking to a spot and setting up your tent, and of course taking pictures. And since then I am hooked. I never miss an upload no matter what the subject is ! Thank you for your awesome content and for making me want to go in the field and take pictures... maybe now I am going to start a channel too ! You are so inspirational !
Thomas, your channel was the first photography channel which my wife and I discovered, back when you had first started it. (probably your first year) We were immediately hooked and never miss an episode to this day. We follow a few other photography channels too now but we're very stingy when it comes to subscribing to anything. I think I speak for both of us when I say that yours is still our favourite. Cheers, from Canada.
I love this channel. I’ll be here for every upload. I’m just happy I found this channel a few years ago. Because of this channel I have your calendar! Cheers
Love your channel thanks so much for the hard work that you put into it.
Thomas, this is an interesting video. Having seen all of your videos from the beginning (and enjoyed them) you have pretty much accomplished your goals, congratulations!
Congratulations Tom on the milestone 🥂 this was the best KZhead advice video hands down and just what I needed to stop making excuses and not making the time. Very inspiring bud thank you for making this video, keep chipping away.
Fantastic video Thomas, thank you for posting this. I've been thinking about starting a KZhead channel just recently and this video has really helped.
Great advice Thomas and congrats on 10 years! As a fellow photographer, I really enjoy watching your videos, seeing your creativity, and how you inspire me. This message really hits home with me, as I am truly trying to grow my audience as a photographer (and continuously get better as a photographer). Thank you.
While I have no interest in doing a KZhead video, I can appreciate the quality, honesty, generosity, and humility of this advice. Well done Thomas!
The "video vs photo shoot" was excellent advice. I always struggle with that concept.
Great mixture of advice and reflection Thomas. I normally skip this style of video because it's the usual fluffy nonsense that adds nothing particularly useful, lacks introspection, and just mirrors basic generic nonsense. But, given it's from you and the fact that you are consistently reflective and introspective I opted to give it a watch anyhow. Sure enough, really great insights and very useful context that delivers a lot of value. A piece I'm instantly inclined to pass on to friends who have talked about or considered the youtube side of things and video creation. Great work as always and thank you for - as you said - delivering content that actually passed value to the audience and not just SEO clickbait.
Great video boss as per usual. I also bought a lens from MPB recently from their European depo and it arrived in Bulgaria (the back of beyond) exactly when they said it would and the lens was as they described perfect. Thanks for posting.
Man you are such an inspiration for young aspiring photographers like me.
Thanks so much for the great INFO ❤ love watching your adventures.
What I like about your channel, and others is the talking you do throughout the video when you are on location. I watched some the other day, they were doing the same shoot in Spain as yourself. I didn't finish any of them because all they did was take photos and added the talking after the shoot in the comfort of their hotel room. For me it wasn't real. Keep up your excellent work.
I have just started my own photography KZhead channel this year and your point on the difference between a video shoot and a photo shoot is huge! Such a good way to look at it and get it right in your head first. Congratulations on 10 years, I absolutely love your videos, some of the best on KZhead 👊
Watched and Subscribed for YEARS... and I have a tiny little channel. Thank you for your input over the years.
Great video! You were the first photographer whose channel I discovered while exploring KZhead. Your content hooked and taught. Over time, you got me to start my own channel.
Wow 10 years-I’ve been following you for about 9 of those! 🎉
I've been watching your channel Tom for the past 5 years and let me tell you that you your videos have 100% percent inspired me to firstly get into landscape photography and then to start vlogging my photography adventures and record them to look back on. I'm also loving the direction you've taken your channel, the travel photography and the campervan photography trips. As a fairly new YTer it's great to hear your thoughts, good and bad, about growing a channel, it's a very demanding job and it can be a difficult balance trying to get the photography and videography right every time.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful tips. I really love your philosophy behind the work you produce. Keep on making this uplifting and enlightening content!
Well done on the 10 year milestone and some great advice. Keep up the good work 👍🏼
Thomas I have been along for the ride for probably 6-7 years. You were one of the first YT landscape photographers that I came across. I do marvel at all the work that you put into making these videos. I think about how much time you take for us to feel part of your journey each week. At this point I don’t plan to start my own channel but who knows what the future has in store. I can relate to the emotions you go through each and every week when you pour your heart and soul into a video and it just doesn’t work. It takes a lot of courage to stick to your original mission for the channel when you see a dip in your numbers. I do appreciate the variety of your topics, it holds my interest and keeps me coming back. I just admire all the work that goes into making your channel a success, I tip my hat to you for your work ethic and passion that comes through in your channel.
Genuinely helpful for a small channel looking to improve. Thanks so much!
Big congrats on (almost) 10 years, Thomas! I've always been keen to watch your videos since I discovered your channel in 2016. It's honestly one of my favourite photography channels. Thank you for all these inspiring videos over the years. I've learnt a lot from them! As always, this is a great video with handy tips - not sure if I'll ever get in front of the camera... I hate listening to my own voice and talking to a camera in front of other people would be way out of my comfort zone 😅
Like a lot of things in life, if you luv it and do it enough you become good at it. Being watching for the 10yrs and will keep watching Tom if you keep the channel going.🎉
Thanks Thomas, you're so inspiring! (As always!)
