[@WillemVerb]

Thank you man. Also how did it take this long...

[@teocrawford]

Wooow that blurry shot of Brian is sooo good! :o

[@intergalacticpeachpatrol]

every time you upload, i'm filled with this incredible urge to wander the streets and make photographs for the rest of my life. amazing. congrats on the sick bags xx

[@halfsliceoflife]

I really love how we get to see how the pictures were clicked. Like behind the scenes from those beautiful pictures

[@moment]

TOO CLEAN. I'm going to look so good with these on

[@mattbray_studio]

still humble and grateful. good attitude man. best of success to you both

[@soro2007]

I love your photos and your work so much Every time I see your video in my feed it just makes me happy

[@leenkestens45]

Congrats Willem and Allison. Beautiful bags made by wonderful people ❤

[@spencersanderson4590]

The flash and everything around looking slightly darker is pretty chill

[@sbutler66]

They look great, can't wait to get my hands on the new pack and tote in the UK

[@FridaAune]

Loving the new bags and colors! I've had the LongWeekend Santa Fe bag with me on several roadtrips the past 6 months. I love it! I also get a lot of compliments when wearing it.

[@inkaststudio]

Awesome! Been watching you for years, the progression is amazing to see 🙌🏾

[@rebeccasuur]

The 90‘s fanny pack is 🔥 Also what I gnarly idea designing pouches for a point and shoot!! Loved the idea of photographing your friends with the bags. The results are so dope! Especially the fake smiling while looking down ones.

[@orangephotos3732]

Love the point and shoot bag!!!

[@vectorhunter4659]

Just purchased one, Love from Paris!

[@SophiaCarey]

Loved the vibe of these! Matches the vibe of the brand perfectly!

[@deadpool6072]

I love the creme-colored bags!!!

[@stapledtogether]

I love the look of the tote, been looking for padded tote for a while for just the quick and easy on location shoot. Didnt realise how affordable this one would be, usually any bag that has any mention of being able to be used to store a camera is super over priced but $69.99 for the tote is a great price. Nice work.

[@Farias123ify]

thanks for this Willem. Amazing content, you're a super nice guy. Inspiring all of us to do more and more. love from Portugal

[@johnenjulia-6664]

De tasjes zijn heel mooi , ik zal mijn bestelling nu doorgeven , proficiat Willem en Allison 👍👍

[@ShwaShwaShwa]

amazing colors! i would love to see a brown, a forest green and a cream color wave that would go so crazy

[@ed12888]

I just got a Santa Fe bag delivered a couple weeks ago and I love it!

[@metalfingersfilm]

Brian chorski that so sick dude, I love his photos so much

[@Rocketscienceshorts]

Bags look great and the dusk photos with Linusss sooo beautiful- congrats

[@Havenotats]

The sandbag upgrade is a good one 😅 no more falling lights haha

[@JohnHill]

Proud of you 💛

[@maxwellwellmax878]

Loved the Video and the images! Thanks for the video Willem!.

[@BoostFutbol]

Please teach me how to use flash with my Mamiya 7 dude. These photos are incredible!!!

[@ShawnPBruce]

Oh man, that purple is great. I may have to pick it up. 90s vibes all the way.

[@AdamAhmedPihlgren]

I'm so impressed by you guys, I've been rocking the Moment mtw tote the last year but I'll definitely pick up yours asap! The tiny point and shoot bag also looks really practical

[@WillemVerb]

If you like the MTW tote I think you'll dig ours! Structurally it shares some elements and materials :)

[@AdamAhmedPihlgren]

@@WillemVerb Yessssss

[@jdsd771007]

Looks awesome! Digging the camera pouch for my point and shoot edc. Congrats on the continued success with LongWeekend👍

[@danielmarcussen714]

[@brianchorskistudio]

Proud of y'all always!

[@grahammiller2483]

Had to pre order that fanny pack. Got the cream and blue one to match the camera strap. Awesome stuff, Willem! It's been awesome to follow along on your journey!

[@graydeotto2820]

Just ordered one! So stoked to use this. Doing a MA degree doing visual anthropology and Ive been craving a good crossbody bag to throw gear in

[@metalfingersfilm]

hell yeah dude, the ski jacket colored ones look great. Need to grab that in addition to the original color ways I have :)

[@DenDenKeith]

been looking for these to pop up on the site since the 4th, defiantly gotta go grab one. Keep it up Dude!

[@MiaMoran]

[@blake.torres]

[@davidfriend5808]

Please please please make the tote in black as well! This new line looks amazing, nice work.

[@CalebsBoring]

Love these kinds of videos! and congrats on the company bro its amazing, you two have done so well!

[@StevenSchultz]

SO good, Willem! Love these images, I gotta start using off-camera flash with film haha. Thanks again for involving me in this, dude!!

[@Caballeroshot]

That black sling would be so dope if it had a red strap to match the creme one's blue. Either way, great stuff, definitely getting one!

[@Staslo]

I'm waiting for a loooooong weekend backpack with this blue coloristic 🎒

[@KazumaOguraVideos]

No matter how much shipping will cost to ship to my country, I would buy those! Nice bags and always beautiful photos too!!

[@xulion1429]

Damn, great designs and beautiful photos as always. Hope I'll manage to save up some cash for one of these someday. Cheers man, love your work!

[@shawnortega9772]

I'm sure this is asked but I didn't see it in the comments or under the gear section - what light are you using in the outdoor lifestyle shots?

[@Kokorba6iqta]

Love the designs! You should encourage Allison to design more fashion items!

[@Dmzfotografie]

The photo at 9:58 is my favorite! Burner

[@TheYarro]

I’m not a photographer but I would buy these bags and just walk around with my lunch in them. SUPER DOPE STYLE👌❤️

[@PaperWolfe]

These photos turned out sick!

[@WillemVerb]

Thank you :)

[@nikpartsanis8892]

What strobe light do you use?

[@matthew_thefallen]

Dude, those bags look amazing! Hope to get one soon 🙏 (the purple one is beautiful !)

[@2AWKSICK]

This is so sick!! Congrats on your progress!

[@WillemVerb]

Thanks so much!!

[@2AWKSICK]

Do you have any advice or lessons you’ve learned through your journey of Long Weekend for creating a brand/company?

[@agustinalvarez4661]

this is the first video of yours that i saw, i am so happy to see what you achieved, by the way, the bags are TIGHT, i cant wait to carry my cameras in them

[@ludaronky4549]

The Raddest couple around!!!!

[@christ1200]

I love my LongWeekend strap :)

[@Benjaminjohansson93]

Is the long weekend gear available to buy in europe? Would love the new little point & shoot bag in the purple colorway😍

[@oscarcastillo116]

Wow Willem all these new designs are so cool! I have been wanting one of the bags for so long, but shipping to Spain from the Moment shop is very very expensive. I hope you can get an European distributer soon! 😅

[@sladelaps]

A true inspiration, keep doin you willem

[@weissinger100]

I want them all ❤

[@jeffreyzheng9470]

love the new products. will be looking to pick up that tote

[@WillemVerb]

Much appreciated!

[@21monking]

Linus definitely practices that fake smile in the mirror. It's too good! haha

[@RM.TokyoPhotographer]

those colors remeind me of the early...2000s/later 1990...sweeet curious if you guys ship to Tokyo?

[@nikkoliquesada9750]

So excited for the tote!

[@ksandrrusgamer]

Willem Verbeeck greetings to you. When riding a bike, so as not to blur, set the shutter speed to 1\400 - 1\500 and iso up to 1250 freezes people in the movement of the bike, well. Don 't be afraid of the risk , the remedy justifies later . I am Vitaly Alexandrov, a Russian photographer from Sochi. Thank you for your videos and works. You Willem Verbeeck are very similar to me in my style of photography. Thank you for your experience and your time for us!

[@stevenzhangzhang1130]

One more request, Please make it available in China , really love all of the"Long Weekend" products! Thank you!

[@chiaracatalini6601]

First time I see such a beautiful design for a gear bag! I would like to buy one but I am from Europe and shipping taxes are too much. However, I will be visiting New York in one month, is there any reseller that I can visit over there?

[@chiaracatalini6601]

Scam?

[@goodcompny6360]

What’s your strobe light set up and are all these imagines digital or film?

[@aandm7772]

What kind of light were you using??

[@tomdesplechin]

Great video! I was wondering, what flash are you using?

[@revaaron]

I'm looking for a bag for my "new" RZ67. can you show how it sits in the bag and how easy it is to take out?

[@adamb9931]

can i ask what the speed light trigger is you're using on the Mamiya7? Been looking for something for mine for ages. thank you

[@messsucher]

whats the fit like with the p&s pouch? lol looking at the dimensions on moment I feel like I can fit my leica w/ leicavit in there just fine. that means its gonna make PS cameras very loose. for P&S I kinda also hope I can fit it on my belt horizontally rather then vertical the cosmic purple looks so good tho

[@massimobianchi1851]

Wow i like the way you Work always with smile i like your video and your photos sorry if my english isn't perfect ciao Willem 👍👍👍

[@gidipridan]

Always fire! Why would you prefer Neewer over Godox?

[@allendrexel7622]

Great vid as usual, Willem! Good luck to you and Allison with the new bags, which look awesome. One question: It seemed like you were mostly shooting your friends with the Mamiya 7, but then you would sometimes review the exposure right afterward on what looked a back display. Were some of the pics shot on digital?

[@washingtonjack9481]

What is the flash you using?

[@BIbiVstf3sx]

Omg the purp!!

[@billyspocketlife]

Okay, I need a matching lens pouch for the point n shoot pouch

[@victorcastillo6799]

what digital camera did u use for these shots??

[@bobsykes]

Congratulations to both of you on the success of your company! Wow. I remember being so worried about how independent and self-employed professionals like you would survive the pandemic in 2020, yet you turned potential disaster into so many opportunities. So happy for you! ✌

[@WillemVerb]

Thank you so much Bob! Im very grateful and blessed to have these opportunities, still feels like a dream.

[@chelseajupiter2103]

The tote in purple or black would be amazing. Still probably gonna get the tote as is.

[@moongmoong33]

please make a video with an old digital point and shoot (2000s - 2010s camera) . That type of camera are trending but I want to see how you feel and how to gonna shoot with it. Pls pls, I love your work so much

[@luigitesta8689]

No light setup in gear?

[@deonis_production]

Awesome content 🔥 What’s audio recorder do you use in this video?)

[@willbagjaques]

What’s the flash being used .. anyone know? 🤨
