[@vakna6300]

I wanna get into doing Photography for a living so bad but have no clue where to even start, travelling is such a dream and capturing those memories to share is lovely.

[@dnv_lens]

Hi how’s your journey into photography like, now

[@alexrubio5296]

Yes a new video and I get my very first camera today! This is gonna be an amazing week :D

[@erlend4127]

Alex Rubio What camera are you going to Get?

[@Vailslife]

I haven't watched your videos for a while now because of work, and I can see that the quality has gone up, and you still know how to keep people engaged.

[@alliethomas6813]

This seriously couldn't of been better timing! My husband and I are going to Colorado (first time I have ever been there) next week and I needed this!! Thank you Chris for always droppin the quality content!!!

[@Wariki]

I love this video!!!! I'm going to be a teacher abroad soon in China & I'm going to create so much photography content & video content. I usually bring a 30mm-110mm or 10mm-30mm for lighter mode along with using my phone for traveling. This is a good tip and your input! I can't wait to go to a new country exploring new locations!

[@mirigorichannel994]

I like this video make me to learn about photography..

[@The_SunDog]

Man, i love fertography.

[@kristynsnell1112]

This video is giving me major moosebumps.

[@haleywhitten1947]

Do you recommend any other cameras that might be similar in quality but not as high of price? Just starting out with travel videos and videography in general but have always LOVED photography and have a simple canon EOS

[@Creative7inc]

Another crispy video! Full of awesome tips for anyone getting at travel photography!

[@LuisSilva01]

Hi Chris! As a portuguese living in Lisbon I´m very glad to see that you love this country, it´s landscapes and people so much (let´s not talk about the fantastic food for now :) ). It´s really a great place to live and grab some time&space moments on photo. Oh, and BTW, your work is really amazing and your sugestions and tips are top notch! You´re always welcome here. Pro tip: Lisbon is probably one of the most amazing cities in the world to photograph.

[@dunnadidit]

YES! Love this! Lets go take some photos of Moose... Mooses?... Meese?

[@samuelhugg788]

A good friend once told me it’s not getting lost it’s having an adventure... great tips Chris thanks I’m excited and waiting for part 2

[@SuperSF100]

This was a really good and well thought out video. Thank you for this.

[@baillie5893]

Love that as many places as you've travelled, Glasgow featured in this video.. We welcome you back any time man!

[@thechrishau]

Baillie I love Scotland! :)

[@tejaswiupadhyay2983]

Exactly the tutorial/content I needed! Can always rely on Mr. HAU!!

[@thechrishau]

Tejaswi Upadhyay thanks for swinging by and commenting :)

[@canetadafenix]

Hi Chris, I follow your work and Lizzie's here on KZbin for a while now, and I just came across this video, you came to Azores and Madeira, the islands of Portugal. And yes, I'm portuguese... Sorry about my english... So, when are you thinking coming to Portugal again? In the continent we have places like Gerês, Nazaré, Algarve, Serra da Estrela, and some hidden places that I think you both would enjoy a lot. Yes, the main cities like Lisboa and Porto are beautiful as well. But, well, I think that if you see the other places that people don't go to often, your photos could be much more amazing and interesting. And, yes, I almost forgot. Congratulations on your wedding! You two are amazing together.

[@moment]

😍 that Broll is actually perfect

[@yourmajesty3569]

Advanced selfie!!!! Talkin about my girl Sorelle Amore 🙌

[@thechrishau]

YESS! :)

[@MikeyCreator]

I have the My Adventure Book from the movie UP and have my traveling notes and bucket list places there. Just looks nice and nostalgic from the Movie.

[@richmatlock2396]

Yet another great video chock full of great ideas. We're planning a trip to Oklahoma then to Southern Calif later this year... I'll be looking for different things to photography.

[@rehman24fps]

The color grading of this episode is edible! So good! So crispy! So vibrant!

[@thechrishau]

haha edible!! love that you used this word :)

[@romanr2570]

How do you take photos and videos at the same time while travelling? I find it quite hard sometimes when you have everything setup with a Gimbal, microphone and so on and then you just want to take some photos in between and all the stuff around is just bothering you. I’m just wondering if you have any tips on how to manage both

[@dustinrubio4518]

This. Was. SO. GOOD!!!! I’m headed to Lanzarote Canary Islands in three weeks. This has really inspired me and helped practically with gear. Hopefully I can take my drone there! ✌🏽

[@mayankjadhav2512]

Is that a USB drive you're wearing as a locket?

[@StevenTheGreat_]

Man nice intro bro. Livin the video already!

[@bjarnibjj]

Great videos Chris, keep up the good work!

[@KenKeegan]

I literally just got back from Chicago and some of these tips would have been so useful! 100% going to keep them in mind for my next one though. Thanks Chris!

[@hakujo]

Thank you Chris for sharing your knowledge!!

[@davey_gravy]

Shout out to Marky Marc with the killer tips. And the killer yellow coat

[@JTWISEGUY]

[@thechrishau]

JTWISEGUY ohhh heck ya. Have the best time ever.

[@JTWISEGUY]

Thanks big dog! 😬

[@mintfresh4108]

I love getting lost! My mom is my photography body, we'll go somewhere with some plan but then say: "what's over there?" and we'll check it out. We've found so many amazing spots this way. Not every time will we strike gold, but it's worth the risk. :D

[@hugod744]

Just sayin’, i’m totaly cool with a 25 min video on yt as long as it stays relevant the majority of the time ;)

[@shenaluke]

I am a homeschooling mom. I decided to add traveling to my sons learning. I printed a map of the state we live in and started out in our own area then travel from area yo area or in the USA we call them counties. I want to start traveling from state to state,we are also doing KZbin videos on our travels.

[@j.walkproductions612]

Consistent quality content... keep it up my friend! I’m off to Bimini, Bahamas this weekend with the EOS R! 🙌

[@RKM8506]

[@thechrishau]

OHH heck ya. DO IT

[@seboom3394]

The quality of your video is insane

[@JerryRevolution]

I actually want that travel tripod. Looks good. And yes travel photography is everything photography. My challenge is shooting at home like if I'm traveling. I forget how amazing my city is.

[@richaellr]

Don't get lost in Brazil, my dude

[@DJGamer-hm8or]

Imagine getting lost in Brazil with a 4000$ camera 😅

[@marisamaelaurie2797]

🤣

[@hairulnordin]

This is great! Part 2 please! Will incorporate this in my trip next month! 😁

[@francescoguerra3288]

Hey Chris, great video and great tips! Just one tip that I don't really agree with is the last about giving money to locals to shoot. Obviously it varies from subject to subject, but if many others starts doing so, it may lead to a small business of locals doing stuff for money. I remember at a photography workshop a Nat Geo photographer being pissed about photographers that gave money to take pictures of indigenous people in Tanzania or Papua New Guinea, telling that now some locals will set everything up to give photographers what they want. So it would be best to "lose" some time more, interact with locals and then ask them for pictures (free), so they wouldn't get used to receive money for that.

[@thechrishau]

I appreciate this response and totally understand it. Thanks for sharing this perspective.

[@rogerserra3711]

You got me hooked!. Awesome tips.

[@MitchTalbotVlogs]

Saw this in my recommended feed and I was like "oh cool but I probably won't learn anything new".. NEVERMIND, I did. As always, Chris you are a godsend. Loved this video

[@thechrishau]

Thanks Mitch! I try to make sure my videos have some sort of new value and take away. Appreciate you watching.

[@MitchTalbotVlogs]

@@thechrishau well they always do! Thanks for making some of the best content out there :)

[@CeecesTravelandLifestyle]

Great stuff Chris, love the style,

[@khoovisuals]

awesome tutorial chris, can't wait for the next one :)

[@thechrishau]

James Khoo Part 2 coming soon!

[@gladdiatorgaming]

Chris, do you shoot these videos in 1080p, or 4k and downsample them to 1080p? They look very crisp but the gear only goes up to 1080p so I'm really curious as I'm deciding between various cameras and how important 4k recording will be to me. Great videos I've been subbed for a while and really appreciate the content!

[@sathwikkanneganti]

This video is soo helpful!

[@themisfire1]

@Chris HAu, This was an AWESOME video! thank you!
