    "Distant Presence"

    Antonio and Ward kick off this episode of Street Shots by chatting about some recent photography finds. Ward got his hands on a Godox Lux Junior flash, a small, retro-style unit that’s easy to use and sparks creative fun. Antonio talks about his latest book pick, Segregation Story by Gordon Parks, praising the powerful color photos that vividly depict segregation in America. Ward also discovered East Beats, Osaka 1964-1970 by Yoshihiro Suzuki, a street photography collection capturing everyday life in Osaka with a quiet, observant touch. Both books spark thoughtful discussions on how photographers interpret the world through their lenses.   This naturally leads to a deeper conversation about the unique role of photographers—being both distant observers and fully engaged participants. They explore how taking pictures can be a way of connecting while staying somewhat detached, a tricky balance that often leads to compelling images. They also touch on seasonal isolation and how solitude can sharpen creative focus, inspiring more intentional work. It’s a reflective episode about seeing, connecting, and creating while walking that fine line between observer and participant.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

  2. Color Voice

    Color Voice

    In this episode, Antonio and Ward explore the idea of a “color voice” in photography—a personal and intentional use of color that can shape a photographer’s visual identity. They discuss how color choices can influence the emotional impact of an image, creating a mood or enhancing the story being told. From vibrant, high-contrast palettes to more subtle, muted tones, they examine how photographers can experiment with color to reflect their own creative vision and connect with their audience on a deeper level. The conversation focuses on how a photographer’s relationship with color extends beyond editing, involving how they perceive and capture colors in various environments. Antonio shares his thoughts on letting color become a defining feature of one’s style, while Ward discusses how lighting and surroundings can transform the way colors are experienced in an image. Their discussion highlights the interplay between observation, creativity, and intentionality in crafting a photographic voice through color.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

    The Frame That Time Forgot

    “When I photograph, what I’m really doing is seeking answers to things.”  -- Wynn Bullock “If you want to be a better photographer, stand in front of more interesting stuff.”  -- Jim Richardson   In this episode, Antonio and Ward reflect on photography’s unique role in preserving memories and stories. They discuss the importance of visual media literacy, highlighting how critical it is to go beyond just taking photos—to truly “read” images and understand the narratives they capture. Antonio shares his interest in teaching these skills, noting an upcoming workshop designed to deepen understanding in this area. They also touch on how photography serves as a bridge to the past, preserving moments that can evoke powerful emotions or insights upon rediscovery. Through examples and personal reflections, Antonio and Ward examine how images can be more than visual records—they’re a way to keep memories alive, capture personal history, and connect us to our own stories and those of others.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

    "Serendipity plays an enormous role in my work. I create the possibilities for accidents to happen." -- Robbert Flick   "I’m very interested in the uncanny and a way to find something mysterious or terrible within everyday life." -- Gregory Crewdson   In this episode, Antonio and Ward start, as usual, by discussing recent book acquisitions, including books received by Antonio, such as “Sons of the Living” by Bryan Schutmaat, Fred Hertzog’s “Black and White”, Anne Noggle’s “Flight of Spirit,” and Ward’s order of a book on Japanese female photographers titled “I’m So Happy You Are Here: Japanese Women Photographers from the 1950s to Now.”    Subsequently, they dive into the aesthetics of the “uncanny” in photography, exploring how certain images evoke a sense of unease and elucidating the potential for these unsettling moments to serve as powerful storytelling devices. Ward shares a captivating photograph taken in New York, while Antonio discusses the significance of presenting students with Garry Winogrand’s thought-provoking work, encouraging them to interpret street photographs beyond their surface.   They also contemplate the role of serendipity in photography—those serendipitous, unplanned moments that elevate a photograph to greatness—and whether this can be cultivated through practice or is merely a matter of chance. They emphasize the importance of openness and attentiveness in capturing these unexpected gems and share personal anecdotes of moments when seemingly disparate elements aligned perfectly, resulting in photographs that felt almost predestined.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

    Mark Our Words

    "What I'm always trying to do is to make a picture that goes beyond a story." "If you can shoot on the street, you can shoot anything." -- Mary Ellen Mark   In this episode, Antonio and Ward begin with some "light" conversation about the aurora making a rare appearance in New York. Antonio reflects on the quiet satisfaction of finally catching a glimpse, even though his neighbors’ iPhones seemed to perform better than his carefully chosen Fujifilm setup. It wasn’t just about getting the perfect shot—it was about being part of the moment and feeling connected to something beyond the ordinary. But the episode really finds its rhythm when the conversation turns to Mary Ellen Mark. Both Antonio and Ward admire her ability to disappear into the scenes she captured, especially during her time as the set photographer on Apocalypse Now. They talk about how her photographs of Brando feel less like production stills and more like windows into the very essence of his character, Colonel Kurtz. There’s a shared sense of respect between Antonio and Ward as they reflect on how Mark’s work goes beyond mere documentation—her images feel lived in, revealing moments that carry an emotional weight. It’s clear that discussing Mark taps into something personal for both of them: an appreciation for the kind of photography that isn’t just seen but felt.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

    Cloudy with a Chance of Grain

    "...talking about pictures as though you could tell anybody how to take good ones is nuts. Pictures are given, not taken."-- Robert Adams "The work of a photographer is to reveal hidden things."-- Matt Black   In this episode, Antonio and Ward kick things off by comparing the new iPhone camera to Fujifilm gear, debating whether the latest upgrades really make a difference for serious shooters. From there, Ward talks about his upcoming trip to Japan and how he plans to shoot street photography around Tokyo and beyond, hoping to capture some of the country’s unique character. He also shares his experience using different film stocks like Ilford HP5 and T-Max 100, reflecting on the challenges of exposure and why he’s leaning back toward Ilford for its flexibility and grain structure. They also dig into recent book finds like Bryan Shutmaat’s "Sons of the Living", which documents the gritty reality of the American Southwest, and Anne Noggle’s intimate black-and-white portraits. Antonio highlights Pau Buscató’s work in "Street O’Clock", and they discuss the challenge of capturing perfect coincidences in street photography. Sprinkled throughout are insights into film photography, reflections on processing styles, and a nod to the influence of FSA photographers.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

    Bookworms and Shutterbugs

    "Photography books often have titles like The Photographer’s Eye or The Vision of So and So or Seeing Photographs — as if photographers didn’t have minds, only eyes."-- Duane Michals “A book is like a piece of music; it has a beginning and an end, but what happens in between is up to you.” -- Stephen Shore   In this episode, Antonio talks about connecting with his new Fujifilm X100VI camera during a photo walk around New York City. He reflects on how much he enjoys shooting with this camera, which feels just right in his hands and helps him capture the energy of the city. As fall sets in and the days get shorter, he’s planning to head back out for some night photography, especially around the bright lights of Times Square. Ward shares his recent experience photographing the Pride parade in Calgary. He usually shoots in black and white but decided to switch things up and capture the parade’s vibrant colors. It turned out to be a lively and colorful event, full of energy and emotion, and gave him a new perspective on his work. He also took a vintage Rolleicord camera to a local car show, revisiting the slower, more thoughtful process of shooting medium format film. These experiences got him thinking about how different settings and equipment can change the way you see and capture the world. The guys also talk about their latest finds in photo books. Antonio shares his experience attending the ICP Photo Book Fest in New York City, where picked up some new titles including Todd Hido’s "On Landscapes, Interiors, and the Nude", which explores the emotional impact of color and composition, and Trent Parke’s "Minutes to Midnight", which offers a stark, striking view of life in Australia. He also discusses his motivations for selecting specific books and how they can aid in teaching photography. Ward also talks about a local photography book launch event he attended, featuring the work of pure mathematician and photographer Arturo Pianzola. He also brings up "Eight Seconds: Black Rodeo Culture" by Ivan McClellan, a book that dives into the unique and underrepresented world of Black rodeo. He describes the vivid color photographs that capture the people, culture, and atmosphere of this often-overlooked part of American life. The book opened his eyes to a new side of rodeo culture, adding another layer to his understanding of photography’s role in telling diverse stories.   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

    The Maier Effect

    "Don't tell your parents where we went” “I’m sort of a spy,”― Vivian Maier   In this episode, Ward and Antonio start off by diving into Ward's recent exploration of minimalist photography. Ward shares how he has been capturing everyday objects—like cars and sheds—using his phone camera in black and white. His focus is on the "thinginess" of these mundane subjects, turning them into striking images that highlight their presence and simplicity. Ward reflects on how this approach mirrors his earlier work and discusses the surprisingly high quality of prints that could be achieved with smartphone cameras. The conversation moves on to Antonio's recent experience attending a talk by photographer Sean Tucker, who discussed themes from his book, "The Meaning and the Making." Antonio shares insights from the event, highlighting Tucker's emphasis on slowing down and appreciating the process of photography in an era dominated by the rapid pace of social media. This discussion prompts both hosts to reflect on the challenges and rewards of practicing mindful photography today. Finally, the episode wraps up with a deep dive into the work of street photographer Vivian Maier. Antonio recently visited an extensive exhibition of her work in New York City, and Ward also saw a Vivian Maier show in early 2020, sparking a rich discussion about her photography. They reflect on the impact of viewing Maier's prints in person and the curatorial choices that brought out different aspects of her work, from "Subtle Gestures" to "Remarkable Identities." They explore the ongoing debate around Maier’s style, her legacy, and the ethics of critiquing her personal life posthumously.
