By this point, you may know of a phenomenon called "influencers in the wild." The whole idea is that taking a photo may look crazy and weird, especially in an improvised setting, and that's where the phenomenon comes from. Despite the weird process, the end result still looks beautiful just the same. It's a reminder of a common saying that beauty requires sacrifices.
Halyson kicks it up a notch as he records the process of taking his own photos in the streets, in the wild, or any other setting. He posts his videos of the process on TikTok and publishes the photos on Instagram. Sure, the process itself may look strange, but it's the result that matters. And he has 1.4 million followers on the platform to show for it.
Halyson does these types of photo sessions mostly with up-and-coming models. But he also does them with random passersby. One of his videos where he offers his professional help to a couple even went viral, getting over a million likes in the process. It's all good fun. So if you like what he does, make sure you follow him on his social media linked below.

The photographer shared a little bit about his background with Bored Panda. "Photography came into my life in 2016. While I was still in college, I was studying physical education. I was always very attached to editing and processing images. I always received a lot of praise from friends and family saying that my photos were beautiful, then one day, I took courage and decided to buy my camera. I started to study and study the market. In the first months, I was robbed; they took everything. I went half a year without having it, then I got stronger and bought it all again. And today, after much dedication, effort and study, I am reaping the rewards. I decided to lock up my studies to dedicate myself to photography."

They're touched up in an editing program. They're not really that bright or that color, you know, right? It makes a pretty picture but it's not real.

He's shooting these images with a DSLR, not an iPhone. He's also editing these with a program like Photoshop. There are no human beings with eyes that color blue. I think people should try these for ideas composition, to play around with. But if you don't have an editing program, or a DSLR like he does or an assistant, don't expect the same results and have fun anyway.

These are really good. I love how he has enhanced all the colours to make the models' features and the things around them sharper. I mean, all the eyes are so stunning! I know it is down to the colour enhancement but still!
So, what happens is that the photographer takes photos? Did I get it right?
Thanks for this fascinating insight into the photography process!
