Sometimes rules are broken for artistic expression not always because someone doesn't know what they're doing. I for one am constantly breaking the "rules" and some of my favorite photos don't follow these guidelines. who cares, do what you want!

impossible to have a bad day when vuhlandes posts a video like this

[@vuhlandes]

You know the vibes lil bro

[@ChrisGower]

Discovered this channel in 2021. Loved it because your style was clearly just that - playing fast and loose with the rules. The end result is always fantastic and for me, a healthy dose of inspiration. Keep on breaking them. Thanks

[@beyond-our-stories]

Fell in love with this channel a couple of month ago. Always come back to it, because it's just really good content - without any gimmicks!

[@vuhlandes]

Love man thank you sooo much

[@DLivingston]

Breaking the rules has given me more impactful photos than not. Loved the vid VUH. Can't wait to see what 2022 has in store for you!

[@HighHatOG]

Same. It’s funny because my work is more well received than old colleagues work who had been doing it for YEARS and knew more technical stuff about photography while I take photos off of vines or whatever I want to shoot. If that light hitting just right, gotta take the photo.

[@PCcardboard1354]

8:03 This scene was so amazing looking and the vibes coming of of this was just stunning it would take me all day to set the vibe like that.

[@ReclusiveEagle]

Rules of photography according to Nikon users: 1: You can only shoot Animals & Street photography in rich white areas (unless its Africa then everything has to be in the dirt). 2: You must wear khaki shorts when taking pictures of animals. 3: You must gatekeep everyone under 40 so we can continue hold mediocre skill level monopolies in our area.

[@Kya_the_camera_dog]

I don't agree with your rules.

[@christian_clark]

I’ve been saying this for so long. I’m incredibly happy you shared this on your platform. It’s a message everyone needs to hear.

[@evanreillyphotography9285]

Experimenting is my favorite part of photography. Break the rules at all costs :)

[@latoiyabanks9211]

Totally agree with everything you said... ive been struggling to find and create my ideas but watching so many videos from different photographers saying the same thing it's hard to do what I want without having what they say in the back of my head... smh idk I'll get there eventually tho.... love the videos Vuhlandes !

[@joannapinkney1469]

Thank you for the constant inspiration !

[@jmitchphotography]

I totally agree bro!! Keep creating my dude!! GOD bless!! When you realize there is no box than you will began to be fulfilled in a liberating way!!📷

[@joshcarmenatte3570]

Tell me why whole time I was watching his keyboard change colors. This man dont miss, you a big reason why I love film and continue to shoot.

[@tonio1693]

Thank you for this! Fr your content motivates me, and this vid gives me confidence to ignore the voices of others telling us how to create.

[@DJDelGrande]

I appreciate hearing this from you. Breaking the rules is an important part of art. Only the best we know break the bounds intentionally o unintentionally.

[@JustcallmeTags]

This is a great video fr. Love that you used an icon in the game as an example of someone breaking rules but being the best (debatably lol). Fire vid as usual 🔥

[@kaelanharkey6192]

I love the hint of green that shows through in the shadows

[@TheHighkeyLowkey]

Yo this is why you are one of my FAVORITE photographers. People forget that this is ART. Thank you for this.

[@alanpods______8260]

I really liked this, very inspirational Vuh!

[@antonroux6737]

I hear you. Amen.

[@NoahBility]

You Really Do Understand The Assignment Every Time Your Photo And Video Work Have A Lot Of Life In Them

[@aaronstaana]

goddamn! vuh upping his game! loved the intro

[@dapp24fps]

MUCH NEEDED !🙏🏽

[@jamilmetcalf2227]

If it makes you happy & you love it, who cares about the rules or what others say. That goes for any form of art. Thank you Vuhlandes 🖤

[@michaelforest7997]

I agree with the opening sentiments

[@shotbykwamzy]

fit goes crazyyy bro! need to cop that graphic tee fr

[@alexanderencarnacion1719]

Always with the 🔥🔥 never disappoints

[@Kya_the_camera_dog]

Love your opinions dude and I agree. To me the "rules" are tools to use if I choose.

[@AngeloHinojosa]

People try to put rules on art. But there are no rules. Just subjectivity and the natural

[@rahmelg]

Well said

[@mikechisholm]

nice shots! i like the look of it overexposed just a bit better as well. cool light leaks as well

[@1998jots]

this made me miss your podcast a ton big bro. I used to love going out shooting and listening to what you had to say. you popped off on this one

[@DudeWithACameraa]

Did a project for william eggleston in school three years ago, and loved his work , both of you inspire me 🔥🙏

[@rickardlindvall1405]

Always thumbs up! You’re great man!

[@iamr8262]

the thumbnail for the vid was stunning but loved the video man keep grinding and never stop

[@rwong363]

Really love the content you put out. 🤙🏾

[@lindseygehlhausen469]

all forms of art need those that are willing to bend/break the rules

[@chuyvee]

Amazing video my brotha 😭🤎

[@mikmedia98]

Loved the inspiration, thanks!

[@thelegendarymercenary]

Rules should be used as a guideline to learn the in's and out's of a field until you have a solid enough grasp of the basics to create what you picture the piece to look like. You can experiment out the gate but having a solid understanding allows the experimentation to yield better results. Rules second purpose in art is to be broken. Rules will inevitably create a very stifling box and the only way to learn and expand not just your own abilities but whats possible in a creative field is to experiment. Without that no artistic field would be what it is. Rules have their place and it's not always to hold you back but to sometimes show you what you can do and what hasn't been done.

[@LeahWinfield]

5:40 straight fire

[@harrisaerialservices3002]

Love your work bro keep it up.

[@dancinboi89]

I’ve always regarded the “rules” as a baseline. You use them to learn and begin and then you can expand from there. Photography is art and science blended and having some of the knowledge behind things makes getting the shots you want easier.

[@kaspar.alberto]

Hi! nice video :^) what video gear you used for this video?

[@leejamesphoto]

I started to watch you, Grainy days and Mike Gray cause everything else was the same.. you 3 seem to hold my attention and for that im thankful cause it re sparked my love and now i shoot film :)

[@donaldmaviza4655]

I keep coming back to this 🥹❤

[@EditedByGQ]

Sup Guys, any tips on framing my shots? or what to look for when taking picture or video? i want to capture modern day life thru a retro perspective. i shoot with cannon a-1 and sony a7iii wit with 35mm lens. i recently just been getting into photography and im just winging it right now. would love to chat it up with some of yall.

[@lillarge9560]

That light leak looks awesome!

[@Thedailyfight488]

I love this video it made me inspire for photography and arts🥰🤍

[@p0p.fingers]

[@LocalSkaterInTown]

[@C.M.S.]

[@JAYEND]

[@evesedenn]

[@patrickhogan5050]

W vuhlandes video after work

[@RadBadTad]

Clinging to easy art "rules" is a lot like focusing entirely too much on equipment, and the obsession with getting a camera with better specs, or a lens with more sharpness on a test chart. It's something that's easy to do. Creating something, or engaging your emotions, or putting your work out there for critique is difficult, and not everyone can do it. But everyone can memorize a few simple rules like "expose correctly" and "don't center your subject" and "rule of thirds" and so people who aren't good at creating are decide to feel better about their skill level by "critiquing" other people's work with those few rules they've memorized, without ever having to leave the house, approach a model, find a good location, or try to tell a story.

[@Xenonic2]

This was a banger of a video!

[@marines8496]

youre definitely one of the best

[@onlyjoeltaylor]

this needs to be on your podcast

[@ReimannPembroke]

Breaking the rules leads to innovation

[@kingsingson5805]

[@francescobuongiorno664]

You are so inspiring...

[@jorbroeder7725]

[@mariaklaus5220]

[@shanepaulneil]

The leak is fire.

[@apersonaladventure8707]

I love the way you don't conform and I love the way you represent for the D.

[@silasluttrell9619]

what camcorder for the shots at 1:54???

[@ReclusiveEagle]

It looks like one of the Panasonic NV-GS series Probably a NV-GS180 or any one of the ones with an SD card. Unless Vuh actually records on the Mini DV tapes

[@rickybobby3975]

“Bad photos” are good photos

[@michaelforest7997]

[@soccerjockey]

damn man I kinda want to try chipping off the top of a roll and see what happens

[@drunkestdriver]

Eyy i see long weekend

[@HellaReckless]

The one rule I abide by is not cutting off limbs. Obviously there are exceptions but, I usually try not to do so.

[@lorenzomartinoia8351]

Fuck man, so good, so so so so so so good!

[@TechnicalGamingChannel]

The first rule of art is there are no rules

[@BackFocus11]

No rules. Just create

[@OnixMint]

It doesn't matter if you break the rules if the picture looks good at the end of the day. At least that's how I look at it.

[@bryonpatt]

💯👍🏾

[@hank_is_crank]

What's good! I sent a few messages already but haven't heard back. I ordered a print back in November . Any chance you could send it my way or give me a refund? It's been 9 months. Thanks!

[@fenet8717]

yezzirrr !

[@marshalltravis3217]

It’s better to beg for forgiveness than ask for permission.

[@marinamontti6856]

Fuck the rules. You seem to be authentic and that"s even better than follow some rules

[@Seiji504]

Fuck the rules mayn!!!!! Exposure composition, lighting conditions etc… sometimes you gotta be like fuck all that. Experiment Experiment Experiment!!! Do what u want!!!

[@amal8657]

This energy >>

[@larson0014]

Breaking the rules, like not wearing skinny jeans....

[@novais]

Didn't know underexpose or overexpose was a rule..

[@vuhlandes]

How

[@novais]

@@vuhlandes because it's a style, an interpretation?! Like Moody or airy?

[@matthewmerkel6708]

W

[@feika_]

interesting but before breaking the rules learn to master them before.
