My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 173 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Today we get to catch up with Ethan Moses from Cameradactyl.  I hadn't spoken to Ethan since November 2019 but always followed his work.  When he was running a recent project I couldn't help but be interested.  Ethan has been playing with "afghan" cameras as they call them, huge 20x24 bits of technology.  Not only that but he's been using the ra4 process to make his own version of instant positive prints! Ethan's personality always shines through, a man who can't stop playing and inventing.  So in this one listen out for: instax + polaroid film Elsa Dorfman Zorki/Fed/Kiev + Pentacons Mongoose + Meerkat Making cameras Repairing & playing Selling to the industry Links Website - https://www.cameradactyl.com/ Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/CAMERADACTYLCameras Friends of the show Steve at Chroma - Find out more about his range here  https://kosmofoto.com/2022/02/chroma-cameras-unveils-new-medium-format-models-and-new-camera-shutter-plans/ For all your c41 developing needs - https://filmdev.co.uk/ Great and affordable zines from Static Age - https://www.staticage.co.uk/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/photography-insights/message

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 172 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Today we get to talk about documentary photography and about subject that is worth you knowing about.  When I first approached Matilde Simas about her work I was interested in her approach and how she worked given the difficult subject.  So to better explain Matilde is a documentary photographer from Boston in the USA.  Matilde is a graduate of psychology, a humanitarian (founded Capture Humuanity which we discuss) , parent and photographer.  The work is all about human rights and has had her work across galleries around the world. Matilde herself is a lovely person and the work is about careful thought of representing this subject matter,  It's been achieved with some class, dignity and respect of the survivors of trafficking.  Trafficking is one of the subjects we have heard about but don't always know  much about.  There maybe some sad parts to the interview as it's pretty emotional stuff hearing about this, but I urge you to carry on. You can see more of her work and the countries she has been to on her website and this will provide a better focus of the problems in that area.  It's not something that is happening in third world countries either, it happens everywhere as you will hear! We also approach the topic of the Massai warriors and female genital modification too, which again is another human right issue in many countries.  Having choice is not always clear or straight forward, despite the health concerns. So in this one: support, shelters & psychological help NGO's vulnerability forced labour, marriage and servants cybersex re-trafficking FGM Massai customs portraiture Links Website - https://www.matildesimas.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/mattie_simas/ Friends of the show Steve at Chroma - Find out more about his range here  https://kosmofoto.com/2022/02/chroma-cameras-unveils-new-medium-format-models-and-new-camera-shutter-plans/ For all your c41 developing needs - https://filmdev.co.uk/ Great and affordable zines from Static Age - https://www.staticage.co.uk/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/photography-insights/message

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 171 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. For this episode we jump across the ocean to Japan and talk with Shin Yatagai. He's another young photographer with some beautiful work behind him.  Initially a recommend by the one and only Johan Brooks from episode 158. Shin's work is about attention to detail rather lens sharpness or quality.  He finds a concept, plans and executes this work with an artistic flair.  I have to thank Shin for speaking in English too, considering he only lived in the UK for a year and doesn't speak very often. I really enjoyed talking to Shin, he's down to earth and shy but very creative.  He even speaks freely about living with ADHD and how he copes with his photography.  We had some laughs and discussed: inspirations from paintings classic photography capture one making a vision capturing movement directing models culture + non-traditional clothing textures + structures self portraiture LINKS Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/shin__l/ Website - https://shin-photography.studio.site/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/photography-insights/message

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 170 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Today I'm bringing you a longer interview, it's mainly because Steve articulates so well I didn't want to remove much from our chat.  Steve Dunwell was recommended by the lovely Lou Jones so naturally I had to look at his work.  He comes from the Boston region of America too, but shoots aerial and architecture work.  It's a very different field to most and due to the nature of the work very different! It's really intriguing talking to someone who just hops on a plane or helicopter with someone after thinking about an idea.  Sometimes it's not about working for clients, but a project or picture he has in mind.  Steve has many decades experience in the industry so seen a lot of changes and adopted these in his work.  In the last 5 years he has used the DJI range of drones to further increase the style of work he can create. So in this one we discuss: point of view specialising working with clients initiative timing + seasons competing patterns Harvard university There will be some example images from Steve on the website too, so look out for those.

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 169 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Today it's a slightly shorter show than usual and one of the catch up's I discussed about last year.  There will be more of these over the coming months but will spread them out.  This one features Andrew Sanderson from the UK, who was last on the show back in episode 66!  So I thought it would be nice to near what Andrew's worked on over the last couple of years. Andrew is the infamous Ilford darkroom master who has helped many people. He is caring and knowledgeable person and often found helping us newbie's out on Facebook groups.  He recently started a new business and has launched a new Instagram at the same time.  He's offering a creative approach to printing.  So instead of offering a straight lab print, if you allow him, he will provide his own artistic interpretation.  I think it's a great idea and already he's seeing some interest in this idea. In this one we discuss: keeping people interested kit&pro lenses weird lens guy fun art galleries Please do check out Andrew's new feed and he's also sent over an example image of a print he's made, so check that out on my website.

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 168 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Welcome to the latest show everyone, this one features an artist from the New Hampshire region in the USA.  Paula from the Griffin put a post about Zachary Stephens work, so naturally I had to check it out.  After looking through his and his website we arranged to get him to talk to us. Zach is a really lovely guy, a husband, father, educator and artist.  It's really nice to see Zach working with his children on his "are we there yet" project. This one really drew my attention being a father myself and couldn't help but laugh at some of his scenes.  As any dad will tell you, if you have girls at some point they will be cutting your hair and applying make up to you!  I hope you find time to check the links and laugh too at the photography. We also find time to talk about his "watching the ice melt" series too, which has been exhibited, another interesting take on the world and light.  Zach has also covered another unusual project too, involving breastfeeding.  It's a very authentic, tastefully shot series of portraits with mothers for Vermont local health authority. So watch out for these areas today: higher education changes from the pandemic photo journalism composite art cyanotypes why make work expired polaroids long term projects Links Website -  https://zacharypstephens.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/zacharypstephens/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/photography-insights/message

I'm pleased to introduce you all to a photographer from San Francisco called Nicole Morrison.  Nicole specialises in food and drink,as well as lifestyle photography.

I came across her work through Lenscratch as she had done some interesting work with GIF's.  The project about makers was really interesting and drew me in, it's so nice to see people using their hands in this age of technology and especially considering her local area (Silicon Valley).

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 166 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Welcome to 2022 everybody, happy new year. It will be interesting to see what this year brings.  Sorry the slack service recently I decided to take time off and relax (literally no photography at all). Podcast schedule should return to normal soon, so just bear with me if there are any gaps. I'm pleased to present this weeks guest is Kathrin Federer from Switzerland.  I had been following her for some time on Instagram and her work was so stunning, so got in touch.  Kathrin is actually a digital artist, so it was interesting to see and hear her talk about her approach to creating images.  It's not a full time engagement for her as she works in media, but never the less, a fabulous talent.  She works with companies and people like Adobe so keep a look out for her work. In this one we discuss: dealing with communication storing ideas anxiety & distractions NFT's, blockchain + minting graphic cards creating youtube content spy vs spy Links Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/kathrinfederer.ch/ Website - https://en.kathrinfederer.ch/ Friends of the show Steve at Chroma - Find out more about his new cute & small pin hole camera at  https://chroma.camera For all your c41 developing needs - https://filmdev.co.uk/ Great and affordable zines from Static Age - https://www.staticage.co.uk/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/photography-insights/message

My name is Andrew Walmsley and your listening to episode 165 of photography insights.  This is the show that interviews people from the photography world. Over the last few years I have always wanted to do a christmas special which would have to be different.  After rummaging around my mind I finally came up with a plan and invited a couple of analogue shooting friends on to the show.  So this will break off for the normal interview style and will focus on the world of analogue and christmas obviously. I'm pleased to invite Eoghan Hennessey (prounounced Owen) and of course I messed that up several times.  Also from the world of silvergrain and film we have the esteemed Christopher Osborne.  Both guests are great film shooters, active in our UK film group but also fun to talk to, hence why they are here. If you are ready for the show, it's themed around the 3 ghosts, past; present and the future, meaning we all cover an element each. So we will be talking about what we miss, what we want and expect in the future! Not only that but Eoghan and Christopher have agreed to take part in my barmy christmas quiz too - it's a bit of my usual type questions with some sensible ones too.  It's a lot of fun so do listen for that.
