A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth.
Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

Episode 7- Dave Herring
My guest today is Dave Herring. Normally I describe guests as photographers but Dave has recently shed this label preferring instead to be thought of as a creative. He produced a really interesting video about it too, explaining why he thinks of himself in this way. He's a working photographer with an interesting lens choice and varied career that's brought him to this place.

Prime Lenses - Episode 4 - Ben Fraternale
Ben is a photographer, director and YouTuber probably most widely known for his work on In an Instant. He’s an atomic bomb of enthusiasm and Polaroid information and was great fun to talk to. I challenge you to not buy a new Polaroid camera after listening to him :)

Rob Gray is one of a small collection of photographers lucky enough to travel the world as part of the MotoGP traveling circus. His work is incredible and he was fantastic company for this episode.
