This video is a little different from the others I’ve made up to this point. It’s not practical “how to” photography advice. But, I think it’s just as important, if not more important than much of the “how to stuff”. Is it worth making more of them? REALLY curious to see what you folks think.

Best advice! To ingratiate ones self requires a trait called agreeableness. To protect ones self requires one to be firm and know ones borders. It is the ability to dance between the two that allows one to be in a position to make the best out of the situations you find your self or put your self in. Very tasteful videos. Thank you.

I really appreciate the “countless questions will keep you up at night” segment… this is a really tough theme. Maybe more detail was outside the scope of this video, but I’d really like to hear just a few examples of situations that you’ve found yourself in, and how you handled it. Also, for the times you made mistakes, how you might have handled things differently. It’s very true about wanting to help everyone, but there are limits to what we can do individually. Sometimes helping one person leads to expectations from those around them that you can help them too, which can lead to them resenting you if you don’t, which can complicate absolutely everything. Anyway… a great point and I hope you’ll elaborate one day!

Absolutely agree about ideas needing time. I actually come up with the ideas weeks before I shoot the video. There are a few ideas I write down and develop. I like to challenge my own idea and see if it still stands up after time, before making a video. I'd ideally post regularly once or twice a month, but... I'd just become a full-time KZitemr if I did that. And I don't think I'd be able to offer the same insights as I do now. Thank you very much for watching and contributing! 🙂

Hi Mitchell. Great advice! As an old-school backpacker (still living out of a bag - for 30 years, now), who just takes photos while on the road, this all makes great sense - not just for travel photographers, but also travelers too; those who just want to get along with other people and understand our world as it is (thru personal experiences and not, via the narrow lenses of mass media).

Good solid advice. I've also found in my limited amount of travel photography that helping out with the work a little bit can go a long way. Carrying a bag of veggies from a boat, helping a guy get a piece of bamboo up onto the roof, etc, is something people appreciate and remember. And don't worry, they're not going to put you to work for the rest of the day (they probably figure you won't do such a great job), but seem to really appreciate the effort.

I really enjoyed your comments on culture and language. I have found in my travels that trying to learn bits of the local language can ingratiate you immediately with the local community. Generally, people like being able to help you, because it makes them feel valuable. In the third world, there's often a misconception of a westerner as being "above them" on account of their financial status and relative freedom. Taking a genuine interest, trying to communicate with them, and a desire to know about their way of life can really make a difference in a persons day and cut through any cultural baggage of preconceptions of how rich or foreign people act.

Talking about having to drink to be accepted by the people you’re photographing - it’s a fascinating topic. I always underestimated the power/importance of alcohol. I recently read Robert Capa’s book and maybe my biggest takeaway from the whole thing was the way that he used alcohol to open doors to opportunities that would otherwise have been closed. Case in point, his famous Normandy Invasion photos would have been impossible without him having had the social intelligence to invite a functionary from the British Consulate in the US to lunch and get drunk together - all because the US government had restricted his travel due to the war. This one individual was able to facilitate him getting the paperwork needed to get to the European front. I really don’t like drinking… but after reading that I realized I need to embrace the liquor!

I have never been out of America, but I love the idea of travel photography. When you go to a small village in a impoverished country, do you ever bring a bag of rice, or wheat, or first aid items.

I'd say that would go into the category of paying for everything like it's a transaction. 🙂 It's very nuanced. What I do depends a lot on the county. A few times I'd buy a goat and the villagers would slaughter it and we'd share it amongst all. That's always really appreciated. Medicine is often appreciated too, but if people don't know how to use it, it's not that great. In general though, I'd encourage not having the approach like - They're impoverished, we're rich, let's make these poor people's lives better. That has created a LOT of problems around the world.

Just by listening to your voice (and watching all these gorgeous pictures you took along the way to illustrate your words), and especially watching at the intensity in your eyes when you were mentioning the situations that you wished you've never seen, I can definitely picture (excuse the bad pun) some of the situations you've been through, some of them not necessarily comfortable. Being a former animation film director, and trained to draw my own storyboards, I had several very visual shots popping up in my mind as you were talking. Powerful stuff, man ! Your life is inspiring. If I ever go back into animation someday (I'm now turned photographer-videographer myself), I'd love to make a movie about a travel photographer, inspired by your stories.

Even though I took pictures during the years in places like Thailand, Turkey, Serbia, Bosnia, etc the general dislike for cameras in Morocco put me off. So after three days when I felt I was going to lose my temper I just drove to the airport and bought a plane ticket on the first flight leaving! Since I am not a professional but merely a guy with a blog and a passion for taking pictures staying in places where I don’t feel welcome is out of the question for me. The world is huge and as you pointed out I can find great photo opportunities in many places where people will enjoy having me there. There is one point on your video where i can’t agree with you but you travelled a lot more than I did and got exposed to more people so I’m not commenting on that! Keep up the great work!

We actually have more in common. 🙂 I was born in the USSR. So VERY communist there. Haha. This is my philosophy - even if most people are NOT good, it's no use thinking of them as bad, it's just not productive. I also think that most people will take the chance to appear good at least, to do something good, GIVEN the chance. At the end though, I think it's a very personal approach - glass half full or half empty sorta question. 🙂 Thanks for commenting.

Mitchell, intelligent and insightful video thank you. It's clear that it's about so much more than cameras and settings or even travel. You're showing that it's about understanding the world around you, immersing yourself in it. It comes across in your photos that you think about what you are doing, which makes them more enjoyable and interesting for the viewer. Fantastic work.

Hi Mitchell. Completely seperate from the photography aspect of your channel is the interesting experience of traveling with your family to all these remote places. What is the typical duration of your travels? Does your family usually travel with you? Very interesting channel. I have really enjoyed the videos. Best....s

Yes. Usually the family travels. Well, my daughter is only 4, so I have not taken her to some "iffy" places, or ones that are particularly remote, but we probably will go more remote now. So... I guess I'll have some idea in a few months. 🙂

So much true in all yhat you say. I jos experienced 2 weeks in The Gambia. I have meet with such an amazing people in a verry exotic place but I got also emotional touched by by the living condition, the poverty. we take everything for granted and it hurts to see that other people are struggling so much. I also got some good friends in there, verry honest and open. Maybe you got used with alk the drama bit for me it waa an verry emotional experience with bouth sad and happiness memories. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for watching all these vids. :) Actually, I have TOTALLY avoided going to places where there's a chance of bad guys so far with my family. That's the only way I want to handle it. I would never want to put my daughter at risk. My wife... I guess I did put her slightly at risk over our adventures. But also, by bad guys I don't necessarily mean that they're robbers or violent criminals - more that they are just people who want to cheat you, screw you over however they can. Like I say - there aren't that many of them.

mitchellkphotos can you make a future video about morals as a photographer. When will you abstain from taking a picture because the situation is too sensitive or to tell the story as truthful as possible without distorting perspectives. I always found that interesting and it would be great to hear what you think of it
