How to be more creative! Street photography with Matt Hall in London - Thinking outside the box.

[@daviddaw999]

Gareth, you are right about Matt: I spent a day at one of his workshops in Cambridge and it was inspirational to see the world through his eyes. He has such a superb, unique eye for seeing what others miss. One other thing worth mentioning is that he charges a fraction of what many other photographers do for a workshop.

[@trevorsneath4665]

These walk abouts with other photographers are among my favourite YT photography vids. Cheers Gareth.

[@GarethDanks]

Thanks dude. Glad you enjoyed it. Yes mine too. Much more interesting than listening to me all the time haha

[@StewartChambers]

Cracking video and chat with Matt. Can hear the passion coming through from you both.

[@GarethDanks]

Hey stew. Thanks so much mate. Hope you’re good.

[@LORDS.And.Hammers]

Matt got me amped up. 💯💯

[@DkphotographyOrgUk]

love you videos.. Have you ever worked with the Fuji X70? The 28mm version of the X100

[@brooker_7883]

Brilliant video. Matt is a legend and brilliant tutor. I attended one of his street photography workshops in Cambridge, it definitely changed my approach to finding shots.

[@torstenbechler818]

One of the best Videos I ever saw. Thank you very much for the inspiration!

[@GarethDanks]

Wow. Some comment that is. Very kind of you!!

[@mikehurdiss226]

Favourite episode Gareth. You both made some great images, but Matt's approach is a revelation. I always look at his work and think, "How the hell did he do that?" His attention to the detail/components in his framing is jaw dropping. Great job Gareth!

[@GarethDanks]

Thanks so much mate. Really nice of you. Highly recommend his workshops 👍🏻

[@SkiwithMike]

Great watch

[@terrytracey3486]

the first thing i noticed, Gareth shooting Q2, I knew you broke 100V on purpose to tell the wife you needed a new camera. Great video and i follow Matt on insta and interesting to see how he works.

[@lamureon]

such a creative approach! thanks for featuring him, now I have a workshop booked for my upcoming London trip 🎉

[@theaustinmusicalexperience1032]

10:07 in the video, yellow drain, yellow bus and people walking past in yellow jackets. I was screaming to take that picture haha

[@GarethDanks]

nah man, gotta be more interest to an image than that. especially the drain part

[@loushared6602]

Brilliant video Gareth & Matt, I really enjoyed it and was smiling all the way through.

[@GarethDanks]

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed 😁

[@tuftyhill]

Hi Gareth I have just started following Matt on IG I love his style. I also love to shoot Street at a similar focal length and use the stunning Viltrox 75mm f1.2 obviously it's not a stealth lens 😅 The red bus image of his reminded me of Saul Leiter's work, one of my favourite Street photographers. Putting Matt aside I also loved the images that you captured especially the 'Lowrey' image

[@GarethDanks]

Hey thanks mate. Really nice of you. Yes I liked that one. Matt’s an amazing artist. I def see his work like leiters too. What a talent

[@reneebetteridge1289]

Was great seeing a totally different perspective then normally taken

[@rubbertips]

Was really good to see an 85mm at work on the street.

[@JVSwailesBoudicca]

I thought you were always creative enough before ....but I am willing to be surprised ! Looking forward to this vid, thank you.

[@GarethDanks]

haha.. definitely not!! this guys another level!!

[@TheArtOfStreetPhotography]

[@paulnash6689]

I have followed Matt for some time but this inspired me to go out today and shoot in a different way.

[@axkra61]

For me, the photo at 10:30 works well BECAUSE the lady isn't on a third. I think it's a super interesting composition. Great video Gareth and always great to hear the insights of Matt who is a really excellent photographer.

[@legofanessex]

Great video, although I do think you are being hard on yourself. Your first image looked pretty creative to me.

[@freekdeniro8623]
