thanks for watching :)

[@Be_You.]

Your videos really do feel like we are watching a movie/documentary. I absolutely love watching your vlogs-always anticipate you posting. When you said you needed to be somewhere and couldn’t be late, I thought it would be more like a business meeting, but the ending of picking Colt up topped any business meet up-so sweet! Thank you for sharing your life, videography, and editing skills/talent with us viewers. You are a natural the way you present and deliver. ✨🩵

[@LifeOfRiza]

Thank you!! 💛

[@smartideas-pedro1690]

Everyone likes Riza's videos and I'll try to breakdown why: - I think 40% goes to Riza's beauty and personality and we can't emulate that (bruh) - 60% goes to Storytelling and Cinematography (Her talent or Practice) which can't be broken apart. That, is what I think we all can learn. She knows how to craft a good Story, making it a lil bit better than reality... but not so much that we can't relate anymore. A wide angle lens does help with that. She also knows how to use both natural and motivated lighting, as well as composition and set design, so there's no need for super shallow depth of field. Also, the color grading has that Rich subtractive color similar to Arri or film, she knows what to do in Davinci Resolve. Audio is super important here. Not only her voice is clear and pleasant to hear but the music choice and sound design adds to her Storytelling. And that is self mastery. She committed to learn all about this and everyone can do it to, you just need to put the work and be patient. Love your videos Riza. Keep em coming ❤

[@Reykob70]

Congrats for your INCREDIBLE work and passion putting in each video you make. I've been on YT for long almost 10 years and I can tell you 100% sure that this is just the beginning of your career as vlogger/youtuber. Still enjoying the process of each video you record, don't burn out your work trying to go faster, just be yourself as you have been the past years, things will arrive in time 😚

[@LifeOfRiza]

for sure!! thank you :')

[@ColtKirwan]

Thanks for picking me up

[@LifeOfRiza]

always

[@Phoebetheboss]

You spoiled the ending!!

[@meadowlarrk_]

you guys are so cute 🥹

[@FlorenceRyan]

The crispy creative shots, the frames, the transitions, the MUSIC! And the ending 🥺 love it karizaaa

[@subarnamohanty8268]

The MUSIC !

[@emilyunfolding]

I’m so inspired by everything you create… I love seeing Canada through your eyes, from a fellow Canadian ❤thanks for being you

[@shakir4969]

I was so immersed in the video and didnt realize the time just flew by. Very very well written, filmed and edited.

[@sauhsu]

running late, but still having time to set up amazing camera angles. not complaining as they were so well made 🙂

[@LifeOfRiza]

story of my life tbh

[@Maheshmax]

😂❤

[@PhillipVu]

These vlogs give me life. Except when you saw Colt, I wanted to jump off my balcony at that point.

[@LifeOfRiza]

BRUH

[@Neverwas]

Bruh, I feel you, same here

[@IInferno]

That greeting between you and the Coltster was something very sweet, 005 better be on the way soon..

[@shwetayaduvanshi9376]

In this chaotic and anxious world where everybody seems to be in a race, i feel sense of serenity watching your videos💗.. thank you for that riza❤️

[@sumy4426]

If I were the judge of cannes film festival , she'd be getting prizes every day. Your videos are honestly amazing !

[@itsblakematthew]

It's so satisfying to watch the process of transforming a cluttered office into a cozy reading nook!

[@ConsolePlayr]

It’s actually crazy that since getting riza on my yt page, I’ve been addicted to learning about cameras and story telling and cinematography as a whole, Lowkey studying riza’s videos lmao

[@amodutaiwo8154]

Same here haha! Those camera angles damnnn!

[@rachadballout8087]

Omg I can't believe other people would also be that inspired it is quite fascinating what one person can do.

[@mindfulfairy]

Same here! She's inspiring me to learn more about photography/video editing etc to tell a story

[@FromPeakstoParenthood]

She’s a great person to study, this was a cinematic masterpiece!

[@SimpleScottishLiving]

100% the same. I know nothing about cinematic productions but will be starting my KZbin journey in a few months when my family moves to Scotland. THIS beautiful blend of vlogging and cinema is my dream!! Now on a mission to figure out how to achieve it 😅

[@Mariah0]

Your videos are so calm and just nice to watch, and when you're in a mood where you don't want anything too big or too overwhelming, it just hits the spot

[@arpitasartjourney]

Your unique style of storytelling is definitely one of my favorites. Keep working on your craft, I can't wait to see you in some movies in the future!

[@BeyondAndBeyonder]

While I probably can’t understand what it’s like to gain a huge amount of followers so quickly, I hope you don’t feel pressured to put out videos quickly. I really enjoy the quality and messages you put out in each video. Great job!!! 🎉

[@lostinadmiration]

Whenever I watch your videos, I feel like it is worthy of putting them on the biggest screen I can get my hands on! They are just so visual and aesthetic, conveying so much emotion and every detail is perfect. And yet they are not overworked and you do not feel like it is pure form and no meaningful content.

[@KHALIL_AMINE]

It's crazy you had 15k subs like 2 weeks ago 😭 so inspiring.

[@judyvsworld]

the ending made my heart 🙂🙂🙂

[@ellipsism42]

Just watching this for the first time. So beautifully filmed. What I notice most is the angles you draw attention to that we rarely see the world from. Makes you consider new perspectives, and it is also inspiring watching you work through your creative process. Finally, the joy and love at the end is great to see!!

[@RobertoooMusic]

Nearly cried at the final scene. I was in a long distance relationship for two and a half years a few years ago - I know that feeling so well. Massive nostalgia hit! Love your content - can’t wait to see more.

[@LawrenceMeisel]

Beautiful story. Love your love for Colt. One logic problem. If you're really running late, you don't have time to reposition the camera to set up all those shots. But I'm being too picky. Love your work. ☮☮🕊🕊☯☯🙏🙏Be safe. Be well. May all your ups and downs have only soft landings. Pray to soften the hearts of the aggressors and relieve the suffering of the victims.

[@hansen.keagan]

Riza!! I found you a few weeks ago and have been able to watch both you and your channel grow so much. You truly have an amazing gift-your cinematography, editing, and the way you craft a story are so wonderful and unique. I am so blessed to get to see the incredible product of your work and talent, and just to get to see you be you! Every upload from you is a compelling story; you have been such an inspiration for me. Thank you so, so much, and I can't wait to see where your life leads next!

[@LifeOfRiza]

Thank you Keagan! :’)

[@jacobsjourneyside]

Your videos are gorgeous, they never fail to inspire me. Just someone living their life and documenting it along the way, I love this, we need more videos like those! Honestly, I’m tired of everyone overediting their videos and using way too many effects, it just got old. I enjoy watching videos such as yours way more, they remind the viewer that no one is perfect but that’s not the reason to not try and be the best you can be. It also emphasises the beauty of living your life no matter how ordinary it can seem. Thank you for being there for us, Riza!

[@sirojajam55]

Everything will work out as best as it may, when you're as mindful, talented, beautiful and hardworking as you are. Thank you for sharing your amazing life trip with us, Riza!

[@Mr.Picturemaker1]

That jump transition from 5:21 to 5:23 is soooo damnn cool ✨✨✨✨💞

[@serena_bee]

I agree. A tidy space does a lot for one’s creativity. ❤🎉 The last scenes stood out to me the most, you ran with so much possibility, and the dance 💃🏽 🥺😌

[@Levonrix]

your videos are such high quality! i’ve gotten so much inspiration and advice from your vids and they make me feel so relaxed!❤

[@MargauxSauvage]

I always watch your videos and Colt's MULTIPLE times. Idk it's like once isn't enough to grasp the entire thing, I need to watch it again to appreciate all the details and thoughts put into it. You guys truly are amazing story tellers! Thanks for spoiling us!

[@lilyeti]

i swear these videos are so fricking good because theyre so relatable and just super well done im also in the middle of making my office space and keeping it tidy is really hard because you always want to add "cool stuff" but its just a distraction :D getting your routines on point is always a mess too, youre there like "oh yes, ill fix this and this when i get this done" but after that project is done youre onto a new thing without doing the thing u wanted :D genuinely keep it up, these videos are super good im always looking forward to seeing them!

[@haldiroot]

Cleaning and setting up your workspace is really useful and cathartic to do. I always do it near the middle, beginning, and end of semesters. It's just nice to have a fresh, clean place.

[@stockie6439]

the way you create and edit your videos is so refreshing, thank u for this art piece :>

[@raymondliu5582]

Everytime I watch one of these videos, it's feels like a fresh breath of air and a reminder to slow down and enjoy the small moments ❤

[@emmavicencio7342]

I recently stumbled upon your channel and I just want to say I am amazed by your camerawork and the way you narrate your life. There's something so comforting about your videos and I can't help but feel inspired by your work! Keep doing what you're doing

[@shubhi8649]

It's just so peaceful to watch your videos riza. Thank you

[@TayoAinaFilms]

This is so Beautiful to watch! Thanks for being you Riza ❤

[@upsidedownandbacktofront_]

I am consistently amazed by how much effort goes into each and every video I watch. It really shows when creators go the extra mile with filming and it’s inspired me to start creating more

[@kimayanatekar9336]

Riza, your editing ignites something within me. The way you see the world is magical. Every time i watch something you've created, it reinforces my newfound love for film and cinematography.

[@naeemashaari]

u have no idea how many times i rewatch this episode, it's so satisfying to watch

[@nabianoe]

your video is so calming riza love it

[@KillerTacos54]

These vlogs are magical. Thanks for making them! Really great to see you finding your footing with this channel. It's already grown so much since I discovered it!

[@negar_cherry_]

I've searched the whole youtube to find a channel like yours and I'm so happy that eventually I found you. I admire your creativity SO MUCH. I watch every video several times cause they're so inspiring for me. Also your videos are mostly about the things I'm struggling with. I wish the best for you and PLEASE upload more videos if that's possible for you. Love youuu.💞💞

[@danoott_]

All your videos are like little gifts that come into my life and make me smile. Thank you

[@Dil.Careem]

I can totally relate to this journey! It's amazing how taking small steps every day can add up to significant changes in our lives. Your determination is inspiring, and it's a reminder that we all have the power to get our lives on track.

[@OmairSadiqPanchili]

The quality of this content is on to the next level and very enjoying to watch. Those last cute moments with Colt though...❤🥰..God Bless.

[@jonatasalcobia1950]

like really recently i discovered your channel, but i’m such a fan already! everything is so relatable to me and i find you really inspiring!!

[@MitsukiXHer5]

AAWW why are you and Colt soo cute! I can't wait to see what the future holds for you! Love the way you edit and all the work you put into each video! It looks so clear and every cut looks so good.

[@Loveejai]

I fall in love with your videos every time! Your art through your filmography brings me so much comfort.

[@lisonc.2043]

I love your videos so much, it' s so inspiring and calming at the same time. I feel like it would be so cool to see a behind the scene of all the shots (and at the same time it might break the magic a little, but I find it so impressing !)

[@kieranlowrie]

i just love how thoughtful this video is, you really spent the time to craft something special for us and I appreciate that!! I'm trying to learn how to create content as nostalgic / homely feeling as yours. It looks like alot of work, but I've got to start where I am :)

[@mynameismissle1926]

Stumbled across your videos just now. And I am addicted! Your videos are so high quality, well planned and so easy to watch. I love the positive vibes ❤

[@kildli]

Photography and cinematography was big hobby of my life when I was in 20s and haven’t been playing with it for decades. But your videos re-inspired me! You creat so many beautiful shots in everyday life and it’s amazing! Love your cinematic- vlogs!!!

[@kyrareilley]

the look and vibe of all your videos are so stunning! inspiring life wise and camera wise

[@cookie_mich]

ilysm riza, ur vids have this normal feel and the ending was so 😭

[@AJBrieLarson]

I’m feeling like I’m hanging out with you the whole video. Giving such an authentic and cozy vibe yet aesthetically pleasing in a sense 🥺🥺🥺

[@maliallovet]

I love every single one of your videos, they make me want to improve my storytelling skills. Thanks 🧡

[@themrgumbatron]

One of the best story tellers on KZbin and the most incredible cinematics and match! Fastly becoming one of my favourite channels.

[@Romo2055]

you with gawx art, you're gonna revolutionise a different type of story telling on KZbin, man I love these styles of videos so much

[@karla.louise]

THE WAY YOU JUMPED FOR THAT TRANSITION MADE ME GASP IN AWE LIKE THAT WAS THE SMOOTHEST TRANSITION I'VE EVER SEEN

[@francesleones4973]

Hi Riza 👋 I recently discovered your channel. Your videos are amazing and so relaxing. I watch them in the mornings and during my breaks at work. You put so much effort and care into your videos and it shows in their beauty in how you capture moments in your life. Even the most mundane of happenings look like something out of a movie. Just want to say thank you for sharing these great videos with us here, and thank you for inspiring me to treasure the little moments every day ❤

[@ainejso]

i love you, i feel so calm when watching your videos!

[@joshhu02]

I found your channel about yesteday and I've binged everything, the way you tell stories is something I strive to work towards in my filmmaking, and I love how cozy all your content is. You've earned a sub who is eagerly awaiting 005

[@janellemaximo4654]

I really love how you narrate 😭 my comfort kind of video

[@nataliatothemoon]

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH KARIZA!!!! and im so so happy to see how fast you're growing. You're so so inspiring to me

[@cainangeorge8880]

Thank you for everything, our lives are very different, but very similar. I've watched all of your videos especially on days I feel like less of myself and overwhelmed. You're doing a wonderful thing, and we all appreciate you greatly

[@thenichlessartist]

Once again, I`m completely mesmerized by your magical and talented story telling. You´re full of talent and yet I´m sure none of this will be possible without your hard work and consistency. Thank you for sharing us true beauty Riza!

[@chiyoks]

Your videos are such a breath of fresh air! Awesome job

[@bluedaisies]

[@janelu1339]

OMG I love the end Kariza!!!! The music and you running omg my heart is melting at midnight, in some city in southern China

[@bunnysoul.7]

I feel so calm and peaceful whenever I watch your videos, thanks for being here !! Love from SL

[@fern6545]

I felt super stressed knowing she had to be somewhere- a deadline- and kept creating new and beautiful camera angles! Plus took time to get groceries! My inner time management monster was grinding its teeth! 😬

[@Jupiter.7]

Congrats on 150k subscribers, you deserve it!✨💫🇧🇷

[@theseriousdark1]

I really enjoy watching your videos, it makes me feel good and gives me the motivation to do what I love as well 🥰

[@ChandanaaM-be1hl]

Thankyou for your videos. I watch them to calm myself ❤

[@Arpitapandey9619]

Last seen when u ran to meet colt Kirwan, it was so sweet and when you both huged I don't but it was sweet and emotional. Have the happiest life.😊

[@TobiSchiffmann]

you are so damn talented! also the end, gave me goosebumps. you and colt together are probably the cutest thing ever ❤

[@neogamer6461]

Your videos are always nice and relaxing. Been watching a lot of them recently. Can't wait to see the next one.

[@simphyy]

1sttttt following you since a long and your vids are so comforting like for me no other yt channel provides the comfort and the meaningful stuff at the same time.

[@di.aktas93]

This is my new favourite channel!!! 😍😍😍 Thank you so much for inspiring me to level up my own filmmaking for my other channel! I really like to get into it more! You’re such an inspiration! 🩵

[@SaulAguilar.]

Editing and filming is just on another level. Hope everyone finds peace 🙏

[@no-hustle]

Beautifully shot (as always), and kudos on the clean. It's amazing how cluttered a space can get over time. We can try to keep it clean, but at the very least it will gather dust, leading us from, time to time, having to dive in, give it some attention, and more importantly, a little appreciation. The same is true of the mind, another space that too often gets messy and dusty.

[@derisivedimples]

Your creativity is one of a kind and I love following you throughout your filmatography journey

[@Steeephen28]

Just discovered you and I'm enjoying your filming style in your vlogs. Feels like I'm watching a movie. I know it takes time to setup and shoot everything. The dedication is real. 👏🏻

[@SandhiBeaches]

I get happy feelings watching you and Colt. And your videos are awesome.

[@chris1549]

Your video's calm my soul and I like thst. It's like an inner peace or relaxation. I'm being allowed to forget about my own life for a few minutes. Also loved the thing where you jumped overcthe camera

[@cordonjec]

it's nice to have something again to watch on KZbin on a weekly basis! Great vids as always!

[@jerrykwan150]

This was a vibe from cottagecore beginning to clean cozy green middle to airport movie scene end 😭 how sweet

[@carldrguz]

This is so cute!! I love your content!! Biggest inspiration right now 🥹

[@lindavieiraarte]

It’s always such a pleasure to watch her videos 🙃

[@purpleskies1709]

Hands-down, highlight of my week

[@nataliatothemoon]

i felt all that love from you and Colt's embrace hit me like an enveloping shockwave (in the best way possible)

[@indianathe3rd742]

Ey ey withdrawals from that please

[@ej-d]

RIza, I have been binge watching on your channel. You are such an amazing content creator. Your videos somehow remind me to take it slow and enjoy the small things.

[@lukemiller_6]

I need this video so much today 🥹 thanks Riza ✌️

[@user-gb5kg9zs6l]

By far one of the best channels on the internet. There's a sense of calm when I watch your videos. Currently, binge watching your videos as if it were a netflix series.

[@johnly_]

Your shots and composition are just incredible. Makes for such a beautiful video!

[@RedneckAnarchist]

Something about your videos heals my soul. I think you're my favorite KZbinr right now.

[@JasuminetheGreen]

Its me confused about everything i am doing until i find your video. its not im becoming energetic or some, its just me accepting the fact that we need to leave peace for our own, to continue growing. Thank you so much Riza.

[@Zainab-sx3yd]

our girl is back with another masterpiece ❤

[@TheYaBoyKevin]

I’m constantly studying how you film these vlogs because they’re amazing!

[@sophiaonyoutube]

your videos keep getting better and better 😍 I'm so in love with these b rolls!
