The Photowalk

From my own event experience this weekend, I ask Adam Johnson, award winning social and wedding shooter, can you really photograph an event and remain socially distanced? And are events actually following distancing etiquette anyway? Are they required to? What should you expect as a photographer? I welcome your thoughts from around the world where you live and photograph. Email: studio@photography...

In life, some folk are very good at finding lids on boxes were actually meant for bursting through. And some folk just don't seem to frequent boxes that have lids at all. And then there are the folk who ask, what's a box? Today a man for whom labels and boxes have been something to fear, something to loathe, but then more latterly something to embrace. Meet Ian Treherne, 'the Blind Photographer.' ...

Hailey Sadler is an international documentary photographer who operates at the intersection of art, journalism, and advocacy. She tells palpable stories about and for people who really need their voices to be heard. Her recent work in Bangladesh in the Rohingya refugee camps and Iraq is powerful work. How life has changed from the desk she once sat behind in Washington. Is it work for which you ne...

This weekend, there's an Access All Areas interview with Blurb Books evangelist Dan Milnor. Today a shortened preview, a part of that show where he talks about patience and how social media has perhaps untrained that sense and enforced a requirement to post to post to post. Through all the instant gratification noise, what has happened to the long tail photo project? Contact the show: studio@photo...

Gary Tyson is a commercial photographer based in Manila. He's a Fujifilm ambassador which by quirk of boundaries and despite his Philippines full time address is tied to Hong Kong. He runs workshops for photographers wishing to travel that photo rich exciting continent, though it's a closed business right now. A former British Army photographer he's adept at photographing people, so what does he c...

Close to my home lies one thousand hectares of 'free to roam' common land, covered by heath, perfect for nesting birds, a safe haven for grazing cattle, visited every day by joggers and walkers. But once and not so long ago, it was an airbase. Ninety six nuclear war war heads aimed east were hidden in blast proof shelters and silos, watched over behind razor wiring by the dedicated women who forme...

Russell Ord must have one of the best jobs in certainly one of the most beautiful parts of the world; south west Australia. But it started due to what I often term as a happy accident. An oxymoron for sure you might suggest, but he injured himself doing what he loved, surfing, which essentially took him out of the sport at any reasonable competitive level. This wasn't to stop him. He picked up a c...

We first heard from the photography YouTuber Nick Page last week and today he returns as I ask; "Do you choose your genre, or does it choose you? Do you even need to choose one? But for those who feel they need to, when do you know you've found it?" Also Nick talks about chasing storms in America. Contact the show: studio@photographydaily.show

How are you? No, really, how are you? Today we continue our mini series on coping with these times as a photographer and I welcome to the show Scott Shillum, co founder of The Photography Movement, launched in 2017 with close friend Steve Wallington after they both lost close family and friends to suicide. It's a non profit org, which 'fosters a community spirit, where individuals of all ages can...

It's an odd concept granted, but Pulitzer prize winning photographer Cathal McNaughton has some thoughts about how his work in photography is adapting to meet new challenges our 'industry' faces. Cathal also shares his feelings about awards, working internationally and giving back, rather than taking when making pictures.

Today, a preview of the documentary legacy recording, where landscape photographer Paul Sanders talks candidly about life photographing the news and being Picture Editor at one of the world's most respected newspapers and how it all came to a crashing halt. Changing pace entirely, Paul has become one of the country's most respected landscape specialists, with a calm, meditative approach. Full edit...

Today's Photowalk Edition is a story of a highwayman, the quaintly 'disturbing' morris dancing tradition, my fight with a Persian rug and a modern tragedy that is only spoken of, in hushed tones. We also look forward to the weekend's first Focus edition. You can see pictures of today's walk on the show page: https://www.photographydaily.show/episodes/hungerford-photowalk-the-tragedy Email the show...

Nick Page and Thomas Heaton, American and British landscape photographers respectively, talk about the power of YouTube and why the platform is so important for photographers. Both have built an impressive following within a niche genre. Is YouTube something you should consider as something to invest your time in? And what does it take to be a successful YouTube photographer? See today's show note...

Today's chat with Blurb Books ambassador Dan Milnor presented ideas that inspired me personally in terms of self-publishing my work and my thoughts. Gone went the, "Oh who would even be interested," concerns I usually have, to be replaced by two words; "What if?" Also, why scarcity can be so powerful. The full length edition of this interview is out Saturday 1st Aug and visit today's episode page...

The first in a series of features of Bill, the farmer's son who went on to show pictures around the world of the American Dream. Send in your thoughts from the shows to studio@photog...

This week, join me on a nostalgic walk, along overgrown bracken rich embankments, bridges that no longer have purpose and straight flat newly created cycleways that wind through English countryside where steam trains carrying passengers down to the English south coast once ran. Questions from the mailbag on discount, obtrusive photographers and American greats. It's the Friday Photowalk. Pictures...

Eclectic is a word you could use to describe today's show. Leonard Neumann returns with more photographers you should study, his take on street portraiture and why black and white. Also Neale finds himself in a field with corn snakes making portraits plus gets excited about returning to some form of photographic work. Reference: https://www.photographydaily.show/episodes/leonard-neumann-street-adv...

I'm sure the answer to today's show title may well be yes, in times of travel again of course. Respected portrait photographer Saraya Cortaville asked herself this very question when she faced a creative crossroads. Today we start to investigate an opportunity more photographers are beginning to take; the opportunity to work as a volunteer overseas photographing the important work of NGOs, with ch...

He also shares some secret ingredients of what he believes makes the ultimate successful photo project. Further pictures and show notes on www.photographydaily.show

A strange start to this morning's usually serene photowalk show concept. I'm by a road. A bypass. A busy, noisy, unrelenting bypass. Why? We're going to retrace some steps into the countryside and talk about a not so well documented English battle, the 3rd Battle of Newbury where tree protesters, tunnellers and a snail almost brought a planned £75M project to its knees. Pictures from todays walk o...

A running theme this week, where emails and conversations have led one listener and friend to question their self belief. Also today Amelia Troubridge, talks of a never ending battle with copyright, how photography has changed professionally, and how the outlet for strong photojournalism has shifted.
