Location Scouting

Happy New Year ISP Nation! I'm very excited to publish the very first episode of the year, hoping to record regularly for all of 2025 and beyond! In this episode, I discuss the problems that I am having with working 100% in the creative space, and how it has taken away from the pleasure of shooting street (or any other type of photography) for personal enjoyment. Please let me know where in the world you're from in the comments! I appreciate you!

I'm back, folks! I apologize for the long hiatus. If you listen to this episode, I'll explain why. I'm back in the saddle and thankful for every one of my listeners' support. Let's talk!

How does one make money shooting street photography? In today's episode, we discuss a situation that happened to me just a few weeks ago. Let's talk about it! Oh, and have you subscribed to my YouTube channel and private Facebook group? Just look for the QUICK LINKS on www.insidestreetphotography.com Also, please consider leaving a review for this podcast on your favorite podcast app! Thank you!

I am going in a new direction, introducing video to this podcast. Whenever possible, I will post videos such as this one to explore and expand our view of street photography and to take us worldwide to new and different places. I hope you like this video, and if you do, please reach out to me to let me know what you think. Walking the streets in search of great captures is one of the great pleasures of my life, but being able to document it makes the experience much more enjoyable and memorable.  On February 12th last month, I met with a few fellow street photographers in Boston and had an absolute blast. I only knew one of the three, and I felt an instant bond with everyone - good, kind, talented, salt-of-the-earth people.  I hope this video becomes one of many more as I grow this project and get my YouTube channel off the ground. I would be very grateful if you kindly consider subscribing to my YouTube channel. Please visit www.youtube.com/@insidestreetphotography and click on the bell! In time, I hope to travel the world doing this, and your support is my fuel to keep it going! And don't forget I also have a private Facebook group that can be found at www.facebook.com/groups/insidestreetphotography

Street photography has long been associated with the bustling energy of urban environments, where every corner presents a new story waiting to be told. However, venturing into small towns and rural areas unveils a different but equally compelling narrative. Amidst the serene landscapes and tight-knit communities, photographers find a unique charm that beckons exploration. Yet, shooting street photography in such settings comes with its own set of challenges and rewards.

In today's episode, we have a deep and heated discussion about a photograph of a cat that I posted on a prominent international street photography Facebook page, and their decision to reject it because "animal photography is not street photography". The cat was captured in the context of an old medieval town in the beautiful region of Abruzzo, where I grew up as a young lad. I expand on the context of the photo in my podcast discussion, but I would love to get your perspective on the matter. Please visit www.insidestreetphotography.com and click on Quick Links to access the ISP Facebook Private Group page. I hope you will join us in the conversation! I will post the photo that I am discussing, and the response from the Facebook page admin.

On October 29, 2023, my daughter and I landed in Paris and had only one afternoon and evening to explore one of the world's most iconic cities! How could I possibly capture the essence of Paris street photography with limited light and a very short time? Let's discuss it! Connect with us on social by visiting www.streetphotography.com.
