In this final series of VIEW: videos, I detail who inspired me from the first picture through to today’s exceptional photographers, which include Chase Jarvis and Dustin Snipes.

Inspiration is by its very nature can arrive at any moment. I remember a blog post or video from Chase that he mentions that he sometimes wakes up during the night with some immediate thoughts that he just has to write down. If I recall, he even talks about having a notepad beside his bed. I’m not sure if that will ever happen with me, because when I’m asleep, I’m really asleep.

But this video isn’t about how to do it or when, but the people that I have looked up to during the weeks and months and even years of doing this fun filled work I do called photography.

We have finally been able to record our first of many VIEW:behind the scenes videos. After many attempts at finding the right time, location and client that would allow us to shoot a video of us just doing our thing.  Many thanks also to the great folks at Luxe Studios

To give you a bit of an idea, we arrived on set a little before 8am. It was a full day in studio with a new client to shoot their feature story and front cover. I’ll be posting up the final product once they have signed off and have gone to print.

It was by far one of our best days on a set like this. The guys that we worked with were awesome to say the least.

And for all the techo guys people that ask me what we used, here is a more extensive breakdown of all the gear.
