Street Shots Photography Podcast
Arts:Visual Arts
"The instance of photographing, instead of creating a distance, is a moment of clarity and emotional connection for me."
-- Nan Goldin
"I've never made any picture, good or bad, without paying for it in emotional turmoil."
-- W. Eugene Smith
In this episode, Antonio and Ward kick things off with some easygoing chat about history and pop culture, setting a laid-back vibe. Things quickly get more personal as Antonio opens up about dealing with his sick cat, which smoothly segues into the episode's deeper themes of coping with loss and navigating grief. They also chat about how the pandemic's been a real game-changer for content creators, especially YouTubers, sparking a lot of soul-searching about work-life balance and finding genuine fulfillment in their creations.
But the real meat of the conversation is all about empathy in photography. Antonio and Ward dive into how photos can capture and share the raw emotions and stories of life, using their own experiences and nodding to legends like W. Eugene Smith to paint a picture of what empathy looks like through the lens. They mull over the responsibilities of photographers in telling true stories without exploiting their subjects, blending personal tales with broader reflections on photography's role in connecting us to each other's experiences.
