Hit The Streets with Valerie Jardin

Thanks to Fujifilm North America I just had the great pleasure to spend a few days documenting the work of Joshua Coombes, the founder of #DoSomethingForNothing, on the streets of New York City. It was an incredible experience and definitely the most important photographs I've ever taken. 

My guest this week is Ralph Velasco, founder of PhotoEnrichment Adventures, as well as a travel photography instructor, author and international guide.

My guest today is Alec Hosterman. Alec was in Charlottesville during the recent deadly attack. He was there on a self assignment to practice his photo documentary skills. Today he gives us an account of his experience.

This week my good friend Steve Brokaw is sitting in for me and interviews photographer and YouTuber Matt Day. Enjoy!

This week on Hit The Streets my good friend Karen Hutton is back and together we answer listener questions about rituals to get in the zone, why our obsession with photography, socks and more!

Today is a new Photo Faves segment and I asked Craig Whitehead, aka @SixStreetUnder to come on the show and share his favorite subjects, locations, gear, photography book, etc. 

The Through Our Eyes project puts cameras in the hands of the homeless and asks them to photograph their lives.

This week Valerie does a little housekeeping on the show, talks about the Hit The Streets World Wide Photo Walks, her upcoming books before answering a few listener questions. 

After losing his job, Jimmy Lee decided to start making a difference in his community by using his camera as an effort to ‘do something for nothing’. Things led to another and a couple of exhibits and a few clients later, he is determined to make this photography gig his full time job!

This week, Dutch photographer Maurice Vliegen tells us about his experience participating in The Urban Photo Race.
