Street Shots Photography Podcast The Good Stuff Takes Time
"It’s more important for a photographer to have very good shoes, than to have a very good camera."
-- Sebastiao Salgado
"I met somebody at the gallery. And he said to me, I own a photograph of yours. And when I get up in the morning, I look at it and it makes me happy. And I thought that was very nice. It meant I wasn't completely useless."
-- Saul Leiter
Antonio kicks off this episode with a walk through the 2025 AIPAD Photography Show in Manhattan, talking about everything from classic Ansel Adams prints to wild experimental pieces that blur the line between photography and sculpture. He also shares a fun moment meeting David Scheinbaum from Scheinbaum and Russek Gallery — one of his favorite YouTube follows — and reflects on what kinds of photography really connects with him.
Ward jumps in with an update on his Japan photos, finding that after a little time away, the darker, moodier images he hoped for are starting to stand out. He and Antonio get into a great conversation about slowing down, letting your work breathe, and how fresh eyes can sometimes change everything you thought you knew about what you shot.
The show wraps up with some gear talk, including Antonio’s thoughts on how he’s planning to travel lighter for his move. They also get into instant film photography, with Antonio sharing his plans to hook up a Fuji Instax back to his large format cameras — including the Crown Graphic his dad gave him — and how different gear sparks different ways of seeing.
