This film was made on the Fujifilm XH2S in March 2022 as I participated in the launch campaign. I hope to make a video sharing more about that story soon, stay tuned!

Hello, friend! There’s so much I want to say, but I’m just so glad to finally share my film from the Fuji XH2S launch after creating the video way back in March of this year! I still plan to make a video sharing a more of the story behind this project, but until then, enjoy the film.
p.s. I just received my XH2S in the mail today, so tell me what video you want to me to make next!
p.p.s. like the film effects? https://bit.ly/fake8
Beautiful work
Great work man
Not really feeling this camera John, I’ve seen nothing that makes me wanting the camera the video image quality doesn’t excite me the image looks way too dark the sky always looks blurry lacks details.
This looks wonderful John. Thanks for sharing
Welcome . I am confused between Fuji xh2s and Canon R7 which is better for video in general. I currently own a Fuji xt4 camera and have been disappointed with the auto focus. A follower from Morocco, I hope you will add subtitles to the video in Arabic
Bravo John! Gorgeous work as always. Love that opening sequence with the seagulls and the fades in and out. And your music choice is spot on as always. Bet the couple enjoyed the experience too – you've inspired my to try filming an elopement wedding!
truly amazing. I loved it
So nice bro! Was this shot in classic chrome?
The colors. The composition. Brilliant
Looks great! Been having fun with my X-H2S. Were you using the Sigma 18-35 on this?
So good!
Good stuff friend. Will definitely have you film my wedding……as soon as I get a Wife, lol.
Beautifully filmed and edited John. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful narrative and scene John super cool!
You’re so talented dude!
this is beautiful 🥹
What a beautiful video. It conveys a lot of emotion. And as for the technical and fabulous direction.
Brutal quality, what lens and filters did you use?
so good man. by the way, jess and i want to do what we call a “relopemenf,” or vow renewal in elopement form, in the next few years and i really want to have you and your wife document it for us! 🙌🏼 if that’s something you two would be up for! much love from california brother!
Gorgeous! ,, is it color chrome and camera setup as usual as well ?
Xt4 is better.
Though a very lovely video.
