this is my favorite tutorial of the year. you don’t need any crazy gear. you don’t have to buy any props. you can just use a window for light. and like that song from all my high school dances said a lot, “you can do it all by yourself.” favorite.

[@rishikapaul4740]

@Mango Street: I would be obliged if you do a video based on dynamic symmetry.

[@Missab4000]

Snap yo fingaz.

[@MangoStreet]

@@Missab4000 thank you for not leaving me hanging 🤝

[@allenkagai]

the thought process behind this, esp the 3 words to describe your favourite photos, is *chef's kiss*

[@GoalGuys]

Two of my favorite people on KZbin. Great video guys!

[@manuelmparis]

Rach should have a podcast... Her voice is so captivating.

[@allenkagai]

i second that

[@eirikp.3588]

This is awesome I doing still-life's in school this week. Thank you Mango Street for the tips. Those shots Dang Beautiful!!

[@MangoStreet]

impeccable timing 🤝

[@NeimEchsemm]

"oh woah, catchy sound, let's shazam it... oh It's Daniel's music"... :D Also, using more "traditional" arts for inspiration is great advice, I'll definitely pay more attention in museums and about those from now on

[@martydenson_mfm]

I am a wedding cinematographer who really had no interest in photography - until I found you two. Lol I think I'm drawn to your nerdy awesomeness (but yet dope/cool style at the same time). Thanks for the video.

[@killswitch_01]

I feel blessed to have another video so soon!!!!! I cant get enough of your guys' content 🤌

[@gmoney1740]

2 videos in 1 week this is what I needed thanks Guys!!!!

[@alfred.quimsing3603]

Finally a tutorial with recaps! love you so much guys!!! 😭❤️

[@MangoStreet]

we’ve done quite a few with recaps over the last year!

[@naeemkhota]

Loved this one! Would love more tutorials like this from you guys because I enjoy the way you teach and resonate with your style! 😎❤👌

[@ruthiembayabu2392]

Ah yes!😍🥰🤗You guys are a huge part of my photography journey and videos like these are why! I love the simplistic elegance that makes a video from you two educationally intriguing and time well spent (with a sprinkle of humor). Keep up the great content Mango Street! Love from a subscription lifer♥️

[@Abogabir_Photography]

I like the flooring on your studio or apartment.. so nice.

[@MangoStreet]

it was a big selling point for us!

[@marisamagdaleno8373]

LOVED THIS. Are you guys going to sell these as prints? A couple of those pictures I could see being beautiful in my kitchen :)

[@AmritaBhortake]

Gorgeous shot, you both! This is my kinda photography :) Love how the composition and lighting reminds me of the dutch masters! ❤️

[@waxsmells]

im only 17 seconds in and i can tell its gonna be an amazing video.

[@MangoStreet]

it’s been 11 minutes, so hopefully it lives up to your expectations 🤝

[@Roamwithkass]

Where can I find the backdrop set up you guys use?

[@Rohit.Dhawan]

Love you guys!

[@armenuieganyan9353]

thank you for the video!

[@GaryJahman]

Thanks guys, going to try this with a smartphone

[@milesmatic2872]

You have awesome videos on photography, keep up the good work!

[@shawnvine4918]

Thanks for this. I'm a bit more comfortable with the idea of still life than model photography, at least at the moment.

[@JChenTech]

For a sec I thought today's Monday lol love the recap as always!

[@Jigamanx2]

Y’all saw it where first! Still life photography with a 1dx is the new meta 😂

[@MangoStreet]

our main shooter is broken 💁🏻‍♀️

[@michaelcarnevale3250]

Loved this one, do more like it pleaseeeee :)

[@matthewoshea_]

Really great video, you guys

[@irislin1041]

So...time to try styling a fancy dinner until it gets cold 😗

[@Boyerobert]

Thank you for the vid, its awesome AF ;-)

[@fashionbyarpita9215]

😍😍I actually wanna use squarespace but paying in dollars is difficult when you are a indian student without part time job or pocket money 😅

[@EradaSvetlana]

Watching this 1 minute after posting. Fate.

[@mmmmk1]

thanks for the tips!! can you make a video where you show how to edit the backdrop to make it smooth and reduce any color variance from the natural light?

[@MangoStreet]

there's a tip in this vid: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5OUZWtnid-LoMU hopefully that helps!

[@mmmmk1]

@@MangoStreet thank you!!

[@mado8781]

hi I love your videos much and I have a suggestion I'm a beginner at photography and I need a tool kit or some Suggestion cameras and lenses thank you guys

[@MangoStreet]

we’ve got quite a few videos about what gear we use and we recently put out a video about what makes a great beginner camera 👍

[@JesseJonesOnline]

What is over your window? I keep getting a hard reflection in my shots.

[@Fidi987]

2:32 Dog asks: What, no meat?!

[@swaygfx]

why stay home tho? life is amazing

[@MangoStreet]

because we are unvaccinated and vulnerable and living in the covid hotspot of the planet and this kinda home shoot rules.

[@swaygfx]

@@MangoStreet wow, so you cant go anywhere until you're vaccinated? or you just prefer not togo anywhere until? thats crazy

[@ParyatakParag]

Daniel looks like the Bollywood actor Vicky Kaushal! 😎

[@mylesdlm]

Where can one get an A24 lighter though? :>

[@MangoStreet]

they threw it in for free with the merch!

[@nirro6]

Hey, its the 1D you say you dont use!

[@MangoStreet]

yeah, our 5d is broken.

[@nirro6]

@@MangoStreet bummer

[@User1234-icu]

Finally you used the 1DX 🤣

[@MangoStreet]

our 5d is currently broken. this obviously isn’t a shoot that needs a 1dx by any stretch of the imagination 😅
