Burger King Hired Me To Do Street Photography

[@zarate1om]

Honestly, for a commercial gig where you are heavily influencing the scene these are some of the most real photos you’ve taken. I think you killed it! I can’t imagine trying to get that classic street photography look while dropping a whopper in a strangers hands

[@FTrovatten]

Great to be back ❤️Watch my series "How To Take Photos Like" - kzbin.info/aero/PLQAJ8pSCXDc6eeFnrjnBnvXyPYNNUQzph

[@nareshkumar-mt8ff]

Shots were bangers but your telling of the process topped those.

[@christopherbgriffith]

Frederik, I couldn’t be happier about you being chosen for this project. You have both the street photographer’s savvy for creating moments and the commercial sensibilities to pull off something that feels genuine and spontaneous while being made for a brand. It was so awesome to see you skating alongside the boarder. As someone who has worked in advertising and is now into photography, this kind of behind-the-scenes is gold. Thank you for sharing it. Also, so good to see you back on YT. I hope BK paid you big bucks for the shoot. 😊

[@reportergary]

Of all the photography videos I’ve seen this was the most interesting, entertaining and informative. And most importantly, inspiring. Thanks for pulling back the curtain and sharing how this all came together. (And great shots!).

[@chingwa888]

Frederik - this blew me away. As you mentioned, street photography is hard enough, sometimes just by asking permission you completely destroy the original "natural" scene. Then adding hamburgers and asking non-models to act naturally and to get the images you got, all I can say is bravo. Very inspiring stuff.

[@djmcwill1010]

Advertising isn't exactly my wheelhouse, but as a business major, business owner, and someone who has worked in many different industries at many different levels, this campaign makes me think someone at BK had a stroke of genius. They want to promote their removal of additive colors, flavors and artificial preservatives, and they selected you. As a recent follower, you strike me as devoid of...uh...artificial flavors. Among the more recent videos of yours that I've watched, you showed an early (first?) run with a Canon film camera where you missed exposure. Another where you ran a 400 black and white film, setting the camera to 800 ISO where you likely wanted 200 ISO. You document the reality of experience. You put some of your learning process on display. You show what's....real? Burger King wants to show showcase their...shall we say more "real" food. I just think this was a great fit. I've no doubt your final work will hold up to scrutiny. You and BK both make a win with the release of this video alone, and it's probably left an indelible mark on me, as a casual viewer (who happens to be about a mile from a Burger King, and lunch is in a couple of hours and.....hmm...)

[@bongieger7871]

those pictures were amazing, especially the "disgusting" ones. even knowing they were staged they seemed real! this was brilliant work!

[@andrewcroft2570]

What an incredible story and truly amazing images I bet the other two photographers that you were up against couldn't shoot pictures whilst rollerblading.

[@notyourdad]

Who would've thought commercial photography could be this much fun.

[@MomentsFound]

Amazing amazing amazing... and amazing that you shared this project and it's backstory with us. Thanks!!!

[@robby_0816]

Great video! Cool project! And awesome photos! Congratulations on being chosen for the project! Thanks for sharing with us!

[@stevesvids]

Burger King got some prize photos from you Frederik. Brilliant. 📷😎👍👋

[@Qullietegirl]

I'm so happy for you!!! Those photos are stunning!!! I was smiling for the whole video, well done! congrats!!

[@TheSchnauzie]

Great shots Frederik

[@albertomillsaps1111]

Oh man, this is just great!!!!

[@h00lig0n]

your work is absolutely incredible!

[@belaacs5238]

Finally an awesome street photography project. You definitely nailed it. My favourite image is the 4 garbage guys eating the burgers at the back of the garbage truck. That image could have 4 different interpretations, depending on who is viewing it.

[@TwoMadExplorers]

Inspiring work as always ❤

[@65WZ]

Loved it.. Some very large prints in the exhibition 😊

[@t.rich.pictures]

Well deserved gig. You are among the best. Congrats!

[@JLStreetDoc]

This is fantastic! Great photos. Congrats

[@darryljungen8307]

Great video! This was really fun. Sometimes we "bite of more than we can chew" with projects!

[@mediamasmedia]

Increíble trabajo, Frederik! Muy inspirador! Enhorabuena. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@ryanorebaugh2415]

This is one the best, most comprehensive videos I've seen on working with an agency as a photographer. So happy you got to do this awesome work and thank you for documenting the process for all of us!

[@mikeeemike]

Fantastic BTS of the shoot Frederik! Mega flot!

[@st.kr.2856]

I think this project, you needed times, class perspectives and super start photos, even if they are posed. Perfect

[@davidmoore720]

Really good. Congratulations!

[@kenchoat7351]

Congrats Frederik! We're happy for you!

[@SAFC8294]

CDMX is a gorgeous city in all ways with beautiful people. Spent a couple weeks there and recognize a lot of places you shot at. Shot 3 rolls of film while I was there. I absolutely would love living there if I could.

[@StarlordStavanger]

i've been dying (not literally!) and waiting for a new Frederik video and it's great as ever to finally see a new one show up! Thanks for making some of my favorite and amazing photography content man, really appreciate everything you put together with your style!

[@BenjaminWhite66212]

Love it. Great that you documented a pro photo shoot.

[@VinceCicero]

So great! WIth all the challenges you faced, it really turned out amazing! I'm a big fan!!

[@billballard2019]

Congratulations! Food photography is difficult enough when it's only the food as the subject. Fantastic work and documentation! I enjoyed this immensely!

[@stevepalmerphotoart]

So wonderful and inspiring! Thank you! I am going to Mexico City in a couple months and now very excited about shooting street while I am there!

[@jefvanthof3008]

Amazing job! Great shots/video! Big Congrats Frederik

[@davidm3225]

Fantastic news, Frederik, congratulations! You're incredibly talented and it was a richly deserved commission. Mad skating skills too! 😁

[@FTrovatten]

Thank you so much David! Much appreciated!

[@thoughtdujour]

This is without a doubt my absolute most favourite video you have EVER produced. It's so epic. I love everything about it. Thank you for producing this Frederik!!

[@richardmillan8859]

Nice job man!! Congratulations 🎉

[@aspenyellow2963]

Frederik, Absolutely brilliant, you've really captured what the brief required, every shot was a winner, and well done to Burger King to give you the chance to shine.

[@warrenc2306]

fantastic experience!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@frankdiluzio8690]

Really wonderful photo shoot, Frederik, and video. The pictures are fantastic and I appreciate your commentary (I was especially surprised when the picture from Alicante came up). Me gusto todo!

[@zoltankaparthy9095]

Frederik, I have watched a number of your vids and do enjoy them. I have watched your style improve and mature. This one is the best of all I have seen of your work. You are in the zone with these, bro, you are in the zone. As for the ad agency, they are a bunch of moronic critics and critics are legless men who teach running. That you got anything by them is a mark of skill and savvy. I hope that this foray into advertising is the beginning of big bucks and doing so without a diminishment of artistic skill. Tak!

[@Infragelb]

Congrats on this project! Those pictures are real emotion and real art instead of an artificial ad campaign :)

[@DerekBoy27]

Excellent work Frederik! Thoroughly enjoyed the video.

[@ChrisLRobinson]

These are fire homie

[@Optkmtrp]

Really nice to see your workflow in this video 👍🏼

[@MichaelWilson-ee8zx]

Absolutely love this video. I've enjoyed your "shoot like" vids in the past but this was the best street photography video I've watched on KZbin! The sheer joy in the process that you communicate is infectious! Thank you!

[@coquiangel]

I actually love started the start where you had a friend/model doing the posing. 1. Those scenes have happened in the real world 2. They came off more naturally. I do love that you've incorporated your style of photography. It's more of a sign that you've made it. Next year m, I hope to have a website, but until then, I'll just keep on shooting. Thank you1💜

[@odedpeled6774]

First of all, congrats on the job. What an interesting and challenging thing to do... Second of all, thank you for creating this video and showing the process so clearly. Super interesting and informative. Keep up the great job!

[@Z_Victory_Z]

Bro, this is fantastic. Simultaneously hilarious and cool and envious. 👌🏻 I noticed you always ask people if you can take their photos. Is this out of courtesy or legal obligations in Mexico?

[@Ricardofernandezph]

Nice to see good guy with ethic and talent getting Street photo jobs.
