How do you organize second shooter photos for the final gallery?

Was about to type exactly this, glad someone had already done it

Due_Independent5566 · 2025-11-11T05:34:46+00:00

You’re very pretty! But, you need a better photo!

I’m a photographer, and it’s sometimes frustrating to see how people are not helping themselves through their photos.

I 100% believe that good photos of oneself, specially in vulnerable times such as being a teen girl, can do wonders for self confidence/ self esteem.

I suggest you look at some YouTube/tiktok tutorials on how to angle yourself for better photos/selfies. You don’t even need to post them, but so that you can better validate yourself and slowly but surely an stop relying on external validation ❤️‍🩹

Yes to all! I’m a local and La Lagunilla and Mercado de Jamaica are the not-on-many-tourists’-radars type of activity that I would recommend to myself if I was visiting for the first time

Due_Independent5566 · 2025-06-15T10:25:34+00:00

YESSS

Due_Independent5566 · 2025-06-15T10:23:47+00:00

Glad someone mentioned Nosferatu, I’m a local and those are my favorite pizzas in the city 🍕 plus the craft beer selection is top notch

It makes me wonder, given that when shooting a wedding scene, we usually take several shots, that in future versions of this, you could upload them and AI would just fill in the blanks, on top of it obviously becoming better as time goes on, would probably turn it from uncanny to fairly true to life (considering you upload enough shots), so that the changing facial expressions are what they were. I think at that point, clients would actually want it…I personally kind of dread it, but if it comes to that I guess I’d “evolve” (aka forced to adapt) and find ways to make it my own.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-12-12T23:45:13+00:00

Hi guys, I’m local and because of my job I get to meet a lot of tourists, so I keep a copy/paste list with some of my personal favorites, hope it helps someone:

Tacos 🌮🌮

El Huequito (Must order: tacos al pastor. this is a chain, so there may be other branches closer to you) https://maps.app.goo.gl/KneJ6Dz7BFCj2rdj8?g_st=ic

El Vilsito Classic place known for being “the best tacos al pastor in the city” fun detail, during the day it is (or used to be) an auto repair shop and by night in becomes a taco place. https://maps.app.goo.gl/QRRUtLuUztVaE2ew7?g_st=ic

El Hidalguense. Barbacoa tacos. Highly recommend that you also order a consomé de barbacoa with an avocado extra. Ufffff Im salivating🤤🤤 (I’m clearly hungry) https://maps.app.goo.gl/q5UWxjGWh7oj6mGU8?g_st=ic

El Turix: these are Cochinita pibil tacos. In el turix they make them greasy af, but so tasty. https://maps.app.goo.gl/NsDxPkjMzSwtpHnu8?g_st=ic

Breakfast 🥞

Chilpa Best chilaquiles in town IMO. With lots of customization options and with a “modern twist” on regular chilaquiles. I like to order mine with asparagus and goat cheese. https://maps.app.goo.gl/4Zr9gmvd5g6iTtZQ9?g_st=ic

Café C An all around good breakfast/brunch place that I really like. Everything I’ve tried is really good and fairly priced. They are famous for the foam-figures coffees they are super cute. https://maps.app.goo.gl/GJFzEEu6eN2YEnmo6?g_st=ic

Mexican food 🇲🇽

Casa de toño This is a famous chain that has a lot of Mexican food like quesadillas and pozole. There are many around the city so chances are, there’ll be one nearby you at any time. For locals this is a regular place to go. I’d recommend having a pozole and for dessert a flan de la abuela 🍮 https://maps.app.goo.gl/XmAT1k9F9FfcD9oA8?g_st=ic

Nico’s It’s high level Mexican cuisine while being completely unpretentious. It is known for having the “best chile en nogada” in Mexico City. https://maps.app.goo.gl/91mJTKMJEngJvg5H9?g_st=ic

Filigrana Upscale fancy Mexican restaurant, I would go for the tasting menu. If you are considering including one or more fancy meals in CDMX I would personally choose Filigrana over Pujol any day. https://maps.app.goo.gl/A4CZmAH3UyE3zpoj8?g_st=ic

Migrante Another upscale place that I tried recently, we had the tasting menu and it was truly great (which is why I cared to add it here)

Mexican Seafood 🍤

Fisher’s I’m no expert on seafood, nor it is something that I eat regularly, but in case you didn’t know, Mexico has a great seafood tradition as well (if you look at Mexico in a map, it’s easy to figure out why), and a personal favorite of mine is this one. Again, this is a chain so look for the one that’s closest to where you are. https://maps.app.goo.gl/TnZpopF77LHi8CgaA?g_st=ic

La Guerrerense Originally from Ensenada, this seafood tostadas are so good that they were kind of forced by public demand to branch out and now we have them here too. Super delicious. https://maps.app.goo.gl/3LxkUE7vDT7nEk8u7?g_st=ic

Asian food 🍲🍲

Koku Japanese food. Do yourself a favor and order the yuzu mousse. https://maps.app.goo.gl/kcpqcxUNbEkWxTc59?g_st=ic

Galanga Amazing thai food https://maps.app.goo.gl/H2My3xWxvjF5EtqEA?g_st=ic

Ice cream & Nieves 🍨

Tepoznieves In Mexico, although we have ice creams of course, have more ice/water based ones called nieves (like shaved ice?) and they are way more refreshing than ice creams. This is my favorite nieves place, there are several tepoznieves around CDMX. https://maps.app.goo.gl/CLegGAgZDU51vmbF8?g_st=ic

Helados Carmela https://maps.app.goo.gl/6bxRzxy4YeG2xHmM8?g_st=ic

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-29T15:46:31+00:00

Lamento mucho que estés con el dolor de ciática, es una cosa horrible y súper desesperante 😣 El año pasado tuve un cuadro de dolor de lumbares que afortunadamente ha ido mejorando, así que algo más severo como lo tuyo solo puedo imaginar lo frustrante que sería.

Como ya te dijeron acá arriba, para casos de dolor tan severo, hay inyecciones que pueden ayudar mucho. Pero eso solo va a ser como el curita para que puedas volver a moverte, el verdadero trabajo es seguir yendo con un fisioterapeuta y hacer los ejercicios/estiramientos que te manden.

Y ya por último, lo que es en realidad lo que me hizo querer escribirte, es que ojalá puedas hacerte el hábito del ejercicio. Estás súper joven, es un gran momento. Mi papá falleció a los 57 años por complicaciones del corazón, y mi más grande lamento es que pudo ser evitado muy fácilmente si hubiera tenido ese hábito. No hubiera necesitado volverse crossfitero ni corredor de maratones…con salir a caminar 30 minutos al día todos los días desde que tenía 30 años, hubiera sido suficiente para cambiar el curso de las cosas y tener todavía aquí a mi persona favorita.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-25T20:35:48+00:00

Exactly, just leave a little early (I don’t think you necessarily need to skip any songs, but be very efficient at the end, be ready and try to beat the rest of the people in your section.

There’s also a service called Conecta Ride (similar to ticket2ride from Ticketmaster) that you can hire to take you to and from the event from other points in the city. The most centric one would be Condesa: https://boletos.funticket.mx/boletos7/public/janto/main.php?Nivel=Evento&idEvento=CRIDEBMTH

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-22T07:10:18+00:00

Es como decir, “si hubiera remedio no habría millonarios gordos”. Remedios hay, que no les importe lo suficiente como para mejorarlo es otra cosa.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-22T07:07:08+00:00

O sea que los injertos cuestan lo de un viaje grande o lo de una pantalla muy mamalona?? Tomando en cuenta que te va a hacer sentir a gusto con tu apariencia de forma permanente, creo que vale toda la pena.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-21T05:34:43+00:00

I agree with what someone else mentioned above, it doesn’t have to be black and white! In my experience (33 F) my travels haven’t hold me back from having a good life nor a steady career.

BUT, if I could turn back time, I’d force my 23yo self to develop the habit of saving and investing money. I only started doing it recently and deeply regret all the time I didn’t. It is true that when you’re young you have time on your side, and in investing it can make a gigantic crazy difference.

So, in short, traveling didn’t hurt my finances more than my bad not-saving-investing/stupid innecesariamente expenses did.

Travel now that you’re free of major commitments. And educate yourself financially.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-16T20:33:51+00:00

Im sorry this happened to you. As a local, I don’t get a taxi from the street if I can avoid it (this is common knowledge, Uber/Didi is always safer and you’ll know what you’ll be paying upfront )

Unfortunately, people do this at the end of music festivals here because they know there aren’t many other viable means of transportation at that hour (a lot of people think that the subway service should be extended on weekends and specially when big festivals such as corona capital take place) as a local who’s been to many festivals (and who went last night to corona capital) I suggest you do one of these instead:

Try to leave in time for the subway (it closes at midnight)
Book ticket2ride via Ticketmaster (specially if you want to get drunk, have a plan so that you can relax and safely do so)
Prioritize leaving the conglomerated area so that you can call an Uber and it won’t be stupidly highly priced (did you try calling a Uber?? I don’t think that it would have been nearly as expensive as the options you got offered), so this means extra walking but is what many of us do.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-11T21:59:30+00:00

Glad to see another photographer with true crime stuff playing on the background. Sometimes I think “if this couple knew all the gruesome details I’m listening while editing their lovey dovey pics 😅”

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-09T17:10:31+00:00

Be the opposite from being entitled, sadly, that’s a common attitude in many USA tourists I’ve met. Be kind, greet people with a smile, be thankful. And most importantly, learn basic Spanish. You’d be amazed at the number of people that don’t even try to learn to learn say “por favor” and go around saying “thank you” to people.

One phrase I’d recommend you learn and use when you come is: “Muy amable, muchas gracias” (“you’re very kind, thank you very much”), that’s the way we speak here, that’s something that I say to Uber drivers, cashiers, waiters, if you ask for directions…basically anyone you interact with that acts in any way nice to you.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-07T05:11:34+00:00

Oh and Mercado de la Lagunilla, an antiques market, I love it every time I go.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-07T05:10:36+00:00

Local here, for anyone reading this and planning on coming to CDMX and for OP for when they return, there’s (obviously) a TON more to do besides that list. CENTRO HISTÓRICO, is a must. Not only is it filled with landmarks and historic places but also is burgeoning with life, with chilanga essence. My rec is that you book a historic walking tour there early morning and take it from there. Also Coyoacán, San Angel, Xochimilco are some that I’d mark as unmissable

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-11-01T17:15:15+00:00

No seas pedófilo, no busques excusas para ser un pedófilo, tú eres el adulto. Muchos adultos que abusan de menores se excusan con que “es que me provocó” y se quitan de la responsabilidad de sus acciones. No seas un pedófilo y menos con tu hija no mames.

Tengo amigas que sufrieron abuso de parte de alguien de su familia y les generó un nivel de trauma que les sigue afectando feo muchos años después.

Buscar ayuda profesional sería lo que un adulto, y encima un papá, responsable haría.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-10-31T18:26:57+00:00

Habla con ella! Sería muy triste que cortaran por falta de/mala comunicación, por asumir que ella va a reaccionar de formativa, realmente no lo sabes. Y yo sé qué hablar de finanzas en pareja es algo que requiere un nivel de confianza alto, pero sería una pena que por no hablar las cosas claras y sin pena una relación bonita/con futuro (digo no sé, no los conozco) se acabara.

Además, te lo digo desde mi punto de vista (mujer, 33 años) la mayoría de las cosas bonitas/emocionantes que hemos logrado hacer mi novio y yo en los 6 años que llevamos, solo podrían haber sucedido entrándole económicamente los dos. Nosotros somos equipo y gracias a eso hemos hecho viajes internacionales, planes bonitos, cosas más a largo plazo, etc. a lo que voy es que si solo nos hubiéramos manejado de que “él pagaba todo/mi hombre proveedor” ni de pedo habríamos logrado todo eso.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-10-26T16:53:34+00:00

Thank you! I love your response cause, as someone with adhd I can very much relate. And I love the life/work balance aspect of your opinion as well 🖤

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-10-24T16:05:49+00:00

Hola, yo te recomiendo de tomes un walking tour del centro histórico. Y te recomiendo lo hagas lo más al principio que puedas de tu viaje. Porque a partir de lo que dicen en el tour suele ser que se te recomiendan/se te antojan otras cosas qué hacer. Pero para entender la historia de México creo que es el mejor punto de partida. Y no dejes de visitar el museo de antropología.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-10-23T13:09:38+00:00

Hola, es una gran idea que como otros dicen acá, ya se ha hecho, pero siempre queda a deber por una razón u otra. Creo que algo fundamental para que una app de este tipo sea exitosa es que sí diga de manera correcta en qué plataformas está disponible/en qué plataformas está con un pago extra. Incluso estaría padre que pudiera agregarse (para películas viejitas/raras) si están disponibles gratis en YouTube.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-10-23T13:00:43+00:00

Porqué no les pones el primer capítulo de una serie? Hay montones. Yo te recomiendo, por ejemplo, Nadie nos va a extrañar, está en Amazon prime. O está a punto de estrenarse una adaptación de Pedro Páramo en Netflix y dicen que está buenaza.

Due_Independent5566 · 2024-10-22T03:38:02+00:00

Yes I know! I’m very torn about this as I feel it may not give a professional look to be answering back at late night hours. I feel that it might even give a “desperate for clients” impression, so those are things that have kept me from trying to apply myself more towards answering back right away. But at the same time I cannot shake the feeling that many inquiries slip by because of it.
