A favorite photographer: Claude Dityvon
Claude Dityvon was unknown to me, until recently. After getting to know him and his photography, I must say he’s become one of my all-time favorites.
A favorite photographer: Danny Wilcox Frazier
I am not sure how I came across him, but it was very recently I was introduced to Danny Wilcox Frazier. And after taking in some of his work, I was hooked.
A favorite photographer: Jane Bown
I first became aware of Jane Bown by watching Alex Kilbee’s video “Overcome shyness in photography” (below).
I don’t like looking at other people’s work
As you should have picked up by now, I’m a massive fan of William Eggleston. In this video, he admits to not generally being a fan of other photographers work.
A favorite photographer: Tore Johnsson
Tore Johnsson (1928-1980) was a Swedish photographer, best known for his “photographie humaniste”, a sort of street photography aimed at illustrating street life in the city, combined with some realism and poetry.
Waiting for Lee
It’s rare for me to be excited about a film, but “Lee” is an exception.
A favorite photographer: James Nachtwey
James Nachtwey is a name synonymous with photojournalism, particularly war photography. His unflinching images have documented conflicts, famine, and human suffering across the globe, making him one of the most respected and controversial figures in the field.
A favorite photographer: Michael Kenna
Michael Kenna is best known for his abstract and minimalist landscapes in black and white. Me likes!
A favorite photographer: Josh Edgoose
I had actually never heard of Josh Edgoose before coming across this video. But now I’m a big fan.
