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

[@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. 😊

[@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...)

[@notyourdad]

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

[@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!).

[@stevesvids]

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

[@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.

[@bongieger7871]

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

[@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.

[@darryljungen8307]

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

[@MomentsFound]

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

[@nareshkumar-mt8ff]

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

[@robby_0816]

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

[@mikeeemike]

Fantastic BTS of the shoot Frederik! Mega flot!

[@kenchoat7351]

Congrats Frederik! We're happy for you!

[@photografia]

This was absolutely wonderful! I love the faces and the happiness your subjects showed when they worked with you on this project. Couldn't be happier for you Frederik!! Congratulations!

[@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!

[@h00lig0n]

your work is absolutely incredible!

[@65WZ]

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

[@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!!

[@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!

[@davidkhaskin9956]

CONGRATULATIONS! So happy to hear you got this opportunity, much deserved and gorgeous photos. They inspire me to go out and have some fun taking street photography :)

[@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!

[@TokyoGritandGrain]

This is 100% compelling in so many ways. The cultural nuances, vibes that are delivered and taken, being able to find subtle elements that may be "hidden" truly make for epic hurdles, moments, and photos. Epic.

[@davec28]

Well done Fredrik ! Really superb images. Such an honest interview/docu. Heart warming to watch and see you 'making it to the big time' - well deserved ! You give hope to us all struggling photographers. Congratulations on an amazing job/opportunity/break thru/creative achievement ! Nice one...

[@Qullietegirl]

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

[@cindyrosen8170]

So proud of you! Thank you for explaining everything. It was so helpful!❤

[@VinceCicero]

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

[@tonycook1532]

So pleased for you Frederick! Wonderful mono, fab photos, excellent narrative 👏👏👏

[@BenjaminWhite66212]

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

[@ONdorch]

Great to see your work being pushed for an opportunity like this! Really interesting hearing about the build up and process of how it is undertaken and not just "I did this job and these are the photos" etc

[@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!

[@mattl347]

Really stoked for you getting this gig, Frederik. Quite an insight.

[@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!

[@GarethConner]

Thanks for sharing this video. What a great success and it was fascinating to hear the story behind the job. Congrats on the work, and as always your photography is inspiring.

[@Spencer_White]

Awesome Frederik, one of the best videos i've seen for some time, really love your honesty on the difficulties you encountered. Awesome work buddy, pictures are ace! 🤓🤟

[@jordanandrew8299]

[@erwinfischer3346]

My deepest respect for your work and how you treat and collaborate with people 👍👍👍👍

[@user-kf7vc7jk6h]

That’s so brilliant and insightful. Can’t wait to see your new video

[@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.

[@YOUAREMYKIN]

Congrats Fredrik, the photos look great!✨And such an interesting BTS/doc to see.

[@jefvanthof3008]

Amazing job! Great shots/video! Big Congrats Frederik

[@johnyoung1606]

I am glad that I found Your channel again :) :) :) Good luck with what ever comes Your way !!!!!!!!!

[@billballard2019]

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

[@TheSchnauzie]

Great shots Frederik

[@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!

[@adman267]

Congratulations! I think you were the perfect choice for this project. Thank you for sharing your experience.

[@st.kr.2856]

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

[@a97b18b]

Such a great video! Can’t wait to see more!!

[@devincutter_]

Legend! So glad youre back!

[@chrisharrison9500]

Brilliant! One of the most interesting KZbin videos I've watched. Absolutely fascinating and pretty funny too. Excellent work. 👍📷

Great job Frederik and congrats with the project- I wish we could see which images BK chose to put in the museum exhibit.

[@edsphotos8179]

This was great! Awesome pictures! And now I'm hungry!!!

[@omnymisa]

Loved your interactions with the people around

[@oshamma]

Congratulations Frederick! You’re a really talented street photographer and I’m glad the assignment was a success! 👏👏

[@m.enesyolcu]

I follow you you since 2018. Absolutely you create incredible content Frederik. Lots of love from Turkey.😇

[@DerekBoy27]

Excellent work Frederik! Thoroughly enjoyed the video.

[@herbrockone5068]

Everything about this video is dope. This campaign is genius. The images you captured in this series so good 👌. Definitely one of my favorite vids. If this ever makes it as a book I'd definitely buy it.

[@DtDrum1]

This was riveting from start to finish. Congrats Frederik and fantastic work!

[@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!

[@richardmillan8859]

Nice job man!! Congratulations 🎉

[@RustyTripod45]

I am glad to see you back at work.

[@sascha.gregori]

Frederik!!! From all the videos you have published so far, this was the most inspiring and insightful of all of them! Thank you so much!! Burger King was wise to choose you and I bet the result will be as amazing as I think it will! Congratulations and all the best for your future work! Sascha 🇨🇭

[@bilouyassine]

This is such an amazing video Frederik, thank u so much for all of this information, this can help me a lot as a street photographer who just started working with companies

[@Infragelb]

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

[@j_ellis]

Great insight into the project! Thanks for sharing and documenting 🙏

[@mediamasmedia]

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

[@retropixer]

This was just amazing. Great video and spectacular images, from all that hard work! Also, I must say, what a great idea to use street photography in ad campaigns. I hope it catches on and companies use more and more of it.

[@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!

[@Optkmtrp]

Really nice to see your workflow in this video 👍🏼

[@gharrop1]

What a great story, so well told and videoed! The results you got are , as always with your photography…STUNNING! I do hope the fees were as good as the results you got for them!! One of the most amazing photography KZbin videos I have seen!! Thank you.

[@franklinmiranda8835]

Wow! So Awesome. Thank you for the inspiration!

[@TryingtoLearntheuke]

Great video! Wow, the amount of work and playing. I am sure stressful but great shots.
