Self portraiture is about more than the photos

This was cool

wow this video was fantastic

Fantastic work! Would love to see more!

That was so good! Self portrait master 🙌🏻👌🏻 also like the songs at the end of your vids, seem to have good taste in music!

Taylor you’re more than just a “photographer”, you’re a poet, a conveyor of emotion, you are an artist 🖌️ a living art 🖼️ magnificent portraits 👏 God Bless (:

I absolutely LOVED this one, so good Taylor!

inspirational!

I love the idea of letting self portraits be an on going and renewing momemt of an artists life and progress, very inspiring. Great shots, so killer! ❤

oh man the Fujifilm app taking forever to connect

"The reward, which is not the photos". I so relate to this!

Bravo

Nice images! Just imagine if you're using a medium format camera, the level of flexibility you'll have will be astronomical! Also using fake blood or red wine for the water shots could yield some very interesting shots

You realize that this is a standard project in every beginning photo class since the beginning of cameras, right?

Appreciated, & inspired!!❤ Thank you.

Great work!

Wow Wow Wow! Thank you for this. Incredibly brave and true. 💕

Love love your videos!

I have a gap between my front teeth that a quarter fits between.

I took one of my first self portraits in 1978.

Thank you for this video. I don't know what causes it, nor have I spent any time thinking about it, but I strongly tend to find nature and macro subjects outside myself. Your video caused me to do a little introspection and start playing with some self portraits. Nothing serious, nothing extensive. Just setting up a single speedlight and messing around with an 80mm macro. It was a good kind of uncomfortable. Knowing all I was doing was playing and I'd likely nuke all the images. I noodled around for maybe 15-20 minutes. Maybe I'll try more today.

Nice stuff❤❤

Inspired and subscribed. Thanks YT algorithm for the recommendation, this is great content!

Such a powerful video. Thank you for sharing this, it’s almost contagiously creative.

Hate to ask, but how did you edit these? Do you have a preset? Such filmic tones!

There is absolutely no medium like photography. It’s an endless pursuit.

Oh Fuji... The Colors. Anyone wanna trade me their X100V for my Hasselblad X1DII? 😭

Just came across this. Watched every second. What a joyful exploration of your art form. Subscribed, inspired and might now dig into your achieve of work. Actually no might about it :)

Ahhhh loved this one so much giving me all the feels and the courage.

My takeaway: Self portrait does not equal selfie. You went for discomfort, not filters. Hard, rewarding work resulting in some really powerful photos.

Nice video, thanks! No sharpening?

Thx for sharing this! A portrait of you reacting to the cold water would have been cool. P. S.: I really like the songs at the end of your videos, cause they are new to me. THX

Note to self: Next time use warm water. Loved this video

Important message and wonderful shots.

From the first time is saw you on the Moment channel I thought you were absolutely stunning. Very articulate and skilled photographer and amazing personality.

Not every day can be perfect and sometimes we get down on our selves but if we are surrounded by amazing friends and family we all can overcome these obstacles.

Keep being you and remember you never have to put on a show for anyone but you have to be true to yourself.

Thanks for sharing.

This is so sooo sooo great. You hit the water drop on the head! love the vulnerability - I recently tried self portraits and horribly failed to do great on it. this helps

Subbed. I loved this.

so good, taylor.

Hey Taylor! I noticed you shoot with Fuji! I do too, and shoot a lot of selfportraits! Have you ever tried to use the interval timer? It is a lot easier than pressing the shutter every time! You could set it to shoot 15 shots, 3 seconds in between for example and so on! PS, love the photos! I will have to get more creative with my own selfportraits!!

Fantastic!!❤

Great video Taylor and you got some amazing portraits. Cheers for sharing your thoughts too.

Good for you girl!!!

A BIG LIKE HERE!

Thank you so much for this! Amazing pictures and insights. This felt like therapy 🙏🏼💚

A trully wonderful video and great photos, Taylor. Is super hard the process of self acceptance required to create good self portraits. Congrats.

Interesting video. No reason for you to feel self conscious. You are a very naturally pretty lady just as you are. And your blue eyes are amazing. Never hide your flaws. They make you who you are. I do not own a digital camera by choice but do self portraits with instant film to test and experiment with lighting . So when I hire a model I will have an idea of centering and distance.

Wonderful video! I feel like playing with self portraits after watching this!

Loved the video! Thanks for sharing and inspiring

So brilliant! AND. THOSE. PHOTOS! Thank you for putting this into the world.

So inspiring, haven’t mindfully taken selfportraits since college, those frames were 👌🔥🚀Thank you!
