I've Been Keeping a Secret

[@LynneLuxonJonesphotography]

Great news Bredan, lively to see you smiling with a happy look in your eye x

[@CostaMesaPhotography]

Happy for you (and Emily). You were really bummed with the Jody breakup and I think it showed in your photography and video production. Looking forward to your renewed inspiration and energy!

[@randyschwager84]

Great job Brendan! You finished with a great shot! Happy that you’ve found someone who enjoys the joy of photography scouting! Thanks for taking me along!

[@disa18ct]

So happy for you Brendan!!! Happy to see you Happy!!

[@joycady8325]

So happy for you Brendan! Great video, beautiful shots and beautiful Country.

[@bigdhav]

Wooo! It shows how happy you are now. Happy good times. Congrats. Always enjoy your videos, and hope to visit your coffee place soon!

[@rajulathigra6469]

It is so great to have your mate enjoy and support what you do! Best wishes for a long, meaningful and fulfilling association! Cheers.

[@old4004]

Great to see you back, Brendan...........it's been awhile. Nice to know you faced your challenges and came out experienced. Almost didn't recognize without your cap on backward.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Hahaha.

[@bvaldes8791]

That is awesome! Wishing you both a ton of success and adventures together. Keep the videos coming. Location was amazing and loved the photos.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks so much! Appreciate the kind words.

[@hectorandjudidesautels1457]

Happy for you Brendan. Keep up the great work.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks so much!

[@PedalPowerTouring]

Congrats for finding someone to share your life with Amigo! Thank you for sharing your adventures with us and all the images are nicely done. Cheers! ~Ron & Petra

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks buds!

[@nicksaunders106]

Congrats Brendon, very pleased for you. Luv the location and photos.

[@Josematamoros1]

congratulations Brendan! and great shots as always.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Cheers Jose!

[@norskattforfun8575]

Happy for you and Emily. Never feel you need to share your personal life. Some beautiful shots and great video as always

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thank you so much!

[@jonc9772]

Congrats, Brendan! Totally can relate to keeping personal life private. I generally don't share personal details on any social.

[@MrClaudioAgostini]

I've been to those places and I think that some locations (like Mandrakia) are best photographed during the day, when the sun is high and there is a nice contrast between the blue of the water and the white of the houses. A very good sunset location, on the other hand, is Plaka, from the venetian castle.

[@LeePelling]

Congratulations on the personal stuff , glad you are happy, as you said thats all you need to share. Love some of the Greek Islands and you have managed to capture some lovely images that depict the area. Not all images have to be portfolio images especially as a travel photographer , your trying to show the reality of the area , which you have always done really well ! Good luck mate !

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks so much!

[@mattorrz759]

Great to know you are happy again mate. Beautiful location and images 🤙

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks 👍

[@colinhitchman2495]

OMG! Last time I watched this channel, you'd just moved to Portugal and Set up a coffee studio with Jodie! 😮 (I should watch more often and keep up!)

[@scottman895]

What a beautiful location! I am glad you are having a lot of fun taking great pictures around the island. I'm glad you have found someone who is enjoying the adventure along with you too!

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks so much, buddy!

[@brucedelorme5026]

DDDUUUDDDEEE!!! Congrats on the personal life thing. Happy for you. Now, about your adventure...Great adventure and some very beautiful shots. The last two shots were spectacular! Alway love your work!!!

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks so much! Hope you're well.

[@michaelbottari6398]

O yes, this is the best photo of the day, Brendan. The video is great and gives my the feeling to go out.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Glad it's inspired you a bit!

[@danielhenzphotography]

So glad, you are happy🎉 that is the best news and is how it should be. Enjoy life! Also, this video shows, how important scouting a location can be. But on the other site, where is the adventure in it, knowing evrything allready.

[@dsneds555]

I thought all the images were good but the arch and the last one were really good. Looks like fun island hopping.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks man!

[@mirandameijer9]

I love your Greece photo’s Brendan! Can’t wait for the next Island. And congrats with your “secret”, who was not a secret to me as I noticed “somebody” in your Praque en Greece video's ;-) Good to see your happy smile.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks! 😃

[@JohnHPettigrewFujishooter67]

Very happy for you Brendan, all the best.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks!

[@HeroShotz]

THAT MIC DROP when you said your glad you got someone that likes to go location scouting instead of someone being annoyed by it WOW SHOTS FIRED .

[@BrendanvanSon]

Hahaha guyyyyys, that wasn't a shots fired moment. Lol

[@PaulYeghouchian]

Love it, happy for you broo

[@BrendanvanSon]

Appreciate it!!

[@neklamp2431]

Loved the photos Brendan! Wishing you all the best! In the summer the light in Greece isn't good (actually it's horrible 😂) but you managed!

[@BrendanvanSon]

It's super hazy, and too calm. But, great vacation weather haha.

[@CMDR_Scorpion]

So happy for you B 👍

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks bud!

[@georgiewanders]

Awesome awesome photography. Greece is 💯

[@sharonsuskin6859]

Love the video and the big smile on your face. I always love your photos so it is hard to choose..

[@MSACoachMike]

A panorama of the cave harbour before sunrise might have looked cool.

[@BrendanvanSon]

I tried. It looked a bit flat. And that tree kept bothering me. Haha

[@Alexhannam100]

Hi Brendan, nice to see you back posting videos again, I wanted to ask what your thoughts are on Instagram these days, that was where I first found you but it seems now most people don’t bother posting much, the interaction is terrible, it’s demoralising and all I seem to see is ads and crappy videos that I have no interest in, when at one point it used to be a great community for photographers. Are you posting pictures elsewhere and if so where? Keep up the great work with the vids, all the best 👍🏻

[@TaavP]

14:16 imagine a boat passing by in that composition 🌟 Great news that aren't exactly news because it's already going for some time 😂 happy for you! 😁

[@andrepena]

Great technique on the first photo... camera shots landscape on portrait mode hahaha

[@saigonzu9658]

Hi Brendan. How long time no see. I missed your video.

[@ARJUN735]

Great to see you Brendan enjoying some time off with your new partner ,as your subscriber from last 7 year ,,i really wished to see timely update on your personal life too as im following you for long ...Cheers mate🍻

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thanks mate!

[@geoffmphotography9444]

Great photos and very enjoyable video thanks. You got lucky; Milos is known for rogue turtles.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Hahaha. Thanks. I probably should sleep more haha

[@alunlambert7456]

Great vlog as always man, fantastic news about your girlfriend

[@JasonLorette]

Greece looks amazing! Congrats on the new 'traveling companion' ;) Welcome to the insanity Emily. :D

[@BrendanvanSon]

Thank you!! 😁

[@cmichaelhaugh8517]

Congratulations on your lady friend! I thought that the landscape photographer’s dilemma (which applies here) is “will that spot over there be better or will I die trying to get there?”

[@BrendanvanSon]

hahahahhaa, that is more or less the real one, yeah. haha

[@Francis_A.321]

06:30 How do you keep the boats sharp at 30 seconds? Or do they have a slight blur on them? Looks sharp to me on video though.

[@BrendanvanSon]

They're not completely sharp. But the water was so still they are barely moving.

[@robertbain3093]

Yaay.

[@phynx2006]

Boring hour hahaha been there👍. Nothing worse than talking turtles specially if it's Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael or Michelangelo. Hi Emily 🖐, glad to hear your the secret, I thought Brendan was switching camera gear lol

[@jeloxtv8467]

Bro, when you gonna come again in Philippines? I saw your video here

[@El-Tel63-Terry.]

What happened to Portugal and your coffee shop studio place ? Sorry if I'm a little late on an update... I've been busy.

[@BrendanvanSon]

Still all rolling along. Will try to do a bit of a proper life update soon - things are wild haha

[@El-Tel63-Terry.]

@BrendanvanSon OK, I look forward too it 👍🏻

[@jeremyparker1415]

What green backpack you rocking?

[@BrendanvanSon]

That's the Shinoda explore v2

[@paulharding7282]

Have you tried using a chocklat filter

[@DandHAdventures]

Was just there. Please take this video down. We don't need any more people to know about this amazing place. ;)

[@BrendanvanSon]

Haha. The world is big, there's a lot of places that are still a good secret.

[@keating_around]

“If you ever get a chance to shoot with T-Heat, and he tells you to stop running around shooting everything you possibly can, don’t listen to him.” -unknown

[@AndyCurriePhotography]

Serious question here - when you're having fun, where do you put your photo gear? - especially when you're with a partner and not a group...

[@BrendanvanSon]

Where do I put it? Like when I travel? I carry a camera bag on the flight same as if I have a group. haha

[@thebrownthomascrown917]

Good for you..personally I think it's a bad idea to mix money with people you are not married to. I was sad you failed with Jody..grow, live, love buddy.

[@MinisterOfGuam]

Bro, does she know about that time me, you and Greg…. Now is not the time to divulge

[@BrendanvanSon]

It was in a vlog, everyone knows... . . . . . . We travelled to Mongolia together.

[@derbagger22]

Were ypu even alive in the early 90s, bro? Nice lenses....

[@t.f_6532]

Emily 👋

[@swimlilfizhy]

Find a partner that sees your photo location scouting as the perfect way to spend a holiday , rather than being annoyed by it. Is that a dig on someone?

[@BrendanvanSon]

Nope. Not at all. All my past partners have loved location scouting like this. I've been lucky.

[@AshvirMaharajPhoto]

When i saw the title, i knew 😝. Wishing you guys a ton of happy adventures together

[@BrendanvanSon]

Haha, when you know you know.

[@JesusPursuit]

Cool jump...it's great to GODS CREATION all over the world.

[@Luigi13]

What happened to your British girlfriend that I saw you on your channel travelling for a long time, the last time I saw you both were in Portugal and had a coffee shop? In case you don't want to answer it is okay too.

[@aniquewaseem6259]

Did your GF tell you that you talk too much lol 😂😅

[@BrendanvanSon]

Every day.

[@aniquewaseem6259]

@BrendanvanSon lol 😆 😂 🤣 😅. Love you man.
