How to Make a Photography Zine 

can you believe RU-vid actually suggested something good

RU-vid randomly brought me here. And I also want to do my own zine right now..

this dude is the DEFINITION of that one art kid in high school but the difference is that he is actually REALLY good at what he does.

Looks great - the vacuum sealing is a unique and super cool touch. Great work!

I'm so happy you got the help of a graphic designer! I'm studying and getting my major for it and people don't realize how much we know and what final touches we can make to help people with their work and making it to their standards. Like you said, some people don't even think about font, or placement, or paper, but it really all makes a difference!

dude, you literally cover every theme i search in youtube related to photography. i really really love you.

Is it just me or does he look like he’s tryna hold back a laugh/smile in his vids

the end result ended up looking fantastic man! really love the soft creamy color palette and Mattias graphic design definitely mixed well with your shots, good work!!

I’m a huge fan of your way of explaining everything so simple and in a very informative way. I also personally love that you show some bonus visual content in your videos - like all of the digital photos you’ve made and that are actually a huge part of the overall project or basically an important part of the exact “shooting day” experience. Thank you for that. And the music is awesome too. Very chill and not distracting.

I didn’t know this existed. Really cool to see something like this and receiving new, helpful, almost foundational knowledge about photography. Thank you, Willem!

You are a mad inspiration. Thank you for this. The zine looks beautiful! I shot a project for my first zine a few months back where I am super happy with the results but have just been stuck in layout phase. This just gave me the inspiration I needed to get back on to it. 🙏

yes! your stuff is great and i'm always starting a new project (photo shoots, zines) whenever you come out with these videos. the timing is spectacular!

Your channel is a huge inspiration to me as a film photographer, one of the most underrated channels. Keep up the amazing content Willem ! Cheers from Singapore

Just wanted to say thank you. I live in New York City too and your work inspired me to pick up my camera again and get back to shooting portraits

Your internal shining happiness made me want to watch the whole video. I could tell that you’re super pride of yourself and excited about sharing this project. Looks awesome!

you are one of the most inspiring photographers I've found out about. Brilliant photography skills aside,your personality is intriguing. Respect.

Willem I watch your videos off and I’m, this popped up on my recommended and it’s a) a good video b) good to see how confident you have grown over time. Take care, Toby

Awesome work Willem, I'm so happy I was able to pick up a copy at your launch party! Really nice product and it's inspired me to consider making a zine of my own.

yo, i love being on this journey w you - your content and photography just keeps getting more enjoyable! keep killing it, you’re super inspiring! 🌞🤙🏿

yo you look genuinely happy to be sharing your knowledge with people. keep it up man you're doing awesome

Love this so much and love the channel man. Subscribing was the easiest decision all day. Photography started out as a hobby, but recently I've been wondering where else to take it. And making a zine seems like the perfect next step for me. Thanks for the motivation and the information. Keep it up bro!

That’s what unwound call an as entertaining as helpful video. Thank you and appreciate your work really very much!

ordered your zine, but also want to order the one by your friend on parisian skate culture. where can i find it? also your channel is incredible, all i feel like doing you explain in detail and inspire me

Great work. I'm a huge fan of physical media, especially in our current climate of consuming media and art digitally. Your zine is wonderful.

This is such a great idea, love the America's playground concept! It looks smashin I love how your videos are down to Earth, educative and easy to watch. Thank you :)

Your show was AMAZING!!! So happy I was able to come out and support such a talented artist.

This looks amazing, you've absolutely smashed it Willem

Amazing! love the vacuum sealing, for whatever reason, I'm such a sucker for cool packaging!!

I really appreciate your videos, deff taking a leap of faith and starting my photography path because of you! 🙏 thank you

Really dope! I'm graduating tomorrow with a BA in Studio Arts and an emphasis in Photography and I think this is a great idea to do right now to just get a tangible copy of my work to give out. Love this! Thanks for sharing :)

Thanks so much for covering this. I've never heard of a Zine, but it seems to be the perfect thing to make for my body of work i've been doing this year.

RU-vid randomly showed up this video from the suggestions/recommendation videos that brought me here and I am surprised with the quality content you have. I am not familiar with zine and as a matter of fact, I just heard and saw it just now and by the thumbnail. As a memory hoarder I think this could be an essential to preserve memories. This video brought up the idea of me creating a zine in the future. Thank you, man! Watching from the Philippines! 🇵🇭More power! Many people should discover this channel too!

Love your zine! You did really amazing choices with design, type and format.

This entire video is art in itself oh my god

man, thank you for this channel :) love your work, peace from brazil!

I love the credit you gave to the graphic designer!! Real shit some people would’ve claimed it all for themselves

You, my friend, are very talented. I enjoy your videos and photography.

working on my portfolio and considering including a zine i've wanted to work on. while my focus is on drawing, there's plenty to be taken and transferred from this video. thank you so much, good job!

Congrats on the show man👊🏼. Great work and the zine is so good.

thank you Willem ... for sharing the inspiring story on your zine project ... all the best.

Love the zine! Photography and graphic design are top notch!

Thanks YT for recommending this. You got a new subscriber sir. Amazing work!

i just wanted to say that you inspire me and i love your work!!! the zine turned out awesomeeeeee

Randomly found your channel. So glad I did. Love your work. This zine is great! It has given me some ideas as I really want to do something like that

Underrated, that's all I've have to say for your channel Willem, greetings from Cancún

Great job! This video will probably inspire hundreds of pages of printed work, well done!

your zine is really really nice! i'm glad this was recommended to me! i've been taking photos for a long time but i've never really taken my own work seriously, i think if i tried to put it together in a body of work i would feel more confident in my own skills thanks for the inspiration :)

working phisically with the pictures is an awesome hint, thanks!

That was sick! I am so inspired to do this for myself. No one would actually buy one but I think it’s a nice consolidated physical thing to hold.

You really put your heart into this. Well done

Awesome video, buddy. I love the amount of thought behind every aspect and collaborating with other creators to bring your ideas to life.

this is amazing thanks for sharing your tips and advice. I've been thinking about creating a zine and have no idea where to start. So this helps a lot. Thanks!

I used to live in Brighton Beach. Photos are giving me a great feeling.

Awesome video dude, it was the last boost I needed to start working on my own zine, thank you :)

Thank you Willem! This is so inspiring! I wanna hands on my first zinc too! 🙌🏼

So interesting! I loved to see your process, it's amazing!

Loved how this turned out. Really want to make my own zine now so thanks for sharing🍎

I appreciate your videos and your photography work. Thanks for sharing.

I’m going to school doing graphic design and this is so inspiring.

Thanks for making this! Been really interested in making a zine but have to get onto a project that I come up with and really like! Appreciate it!

So grateful I came across this video! I just stumbled upon your channel while searching the interwebs for film photography pro tips (I'm buying my first film camera tomorrow & am so stoked!) But this was a sweet little treat to come across, as I have a body of work I've been contemplating making into a zine. It's a self-portrait series accompanied by written word, poems and such, that I've been working on for the past year. But I've overthought it so much and I've been staring at these images I've taped to my wall (similar work process!) that I've discouraged myself by my own work lolol. This video was just the inspiration I needed to follow through on this project- so thank you for that! I've been having what seems like a creative quarter life crisis. >.< Anyway, your work is mad brilliant! Keep creating! Looking forward to your endeavors.

Love this video!! Thank you so much! As a amateur photographer it’s so nice to get an insight into the process! Congrats on the Zine and keep up the good work!

Gorgeous images and colours...the design is excellent I love the typeface in the Zine

こうして海外まであなたの魅力が伝えられることを嬉しく思います、私は日本人ですが、zineを作りたくなりました！

Your work is so beautiful, such beautiful images.

You said "Our Images" which is the best way to refer to the nature of collaboration

This is really inspiring, love it ! I’m working on a personal project, it will help me a lot. Thank you 🙏🏻

Very nice. Great inspiration, I always wanted to make a zine or a book, this just gave me another push in the right direction. I'm currently busy printing a full series in my darkroom to have work-prints to choose from for a ... yeah, maybe a zine. Thank you for your video!

this is rly cool and highkey inspiring, love it!

Thanks and congratulations Willem! Hej Mattias!

This is so sick. I love that you vacuum sealed them! Liked and Subscribed!

I was reaaaally inspired to this thank you!

Wow I see you being a professor teaching this as a class you’d be amazing at it!

Thank you so much for sharing. You inspire me to make a zine too. Good job!

These images are stunning. just discovered your channel, can’t believe I didn’t find it earlier.

I love this!! Thanks for this video. Was looking for a guide on how to make a zine since I'm gonna be putting my photos too

Love this bro and love your approach! Now i wanna make a zine to showcase my portfolio. Haven't made anything physical so this will be a fun project!

This video was on my recommended section. Lovely :D

Nice video! I'm sure you put a massive amount of work into making your zine! I'm inspired to try making one myself once I get some material together. Thanks!

You deserve more than this, Wil.

You inspire me. I picked up an RZ at a 2nd hand camera shop three years ago but never shot it. Now I want to do a zine of my neighborhood.

Enjoying your content🖤🖤
