    "I don't think I'm a particularly good photographer, but I put a shit lot of time into it."
    Refreshing modesty from one of the GOATs.

      100% if Matt can be that modest then some UA-camrs (not josh or Shane) need to take a leaf out of his book

    I first met Mr Stuart on Oxford Street about 12 years ago. He took the piss because I was shooting street with a 5Dii, the liberty! Next time I saw him he agreed to judge a free street comp we were running. Didn't charge, was just happy to help spread the enthusiasm for the genre. One of the UK's best contemporary photographers and a great ambassador.

    Pure gold! In between some light hearted banter there were some real nuggets of knowledge. I’m only 3 years into my street photography journey and hearing from people 2 or 3 decades in is very inspiring. Going to take some photos now ✌🏼

    This was genuinely brilliant 👏🏽. Modesty, humour and enthusiasm in photography is essential IMO, and Matt has all three! Stoked that you asked my question too (appreciate you highlighting my use of exclamation marks and emojis too 😆)

    Such an inspiring person. I went to PhotoLondon last year because I knew Joel Meyerowitz was doing a book signing there, and then walking around the venue I met Matt Stuart out of the blue and it literally made my day meeting two of my favourite street photographers the same day.

    Truly one of the true creators of this genre in photography who like me work the same way they use manual focus lenses and think before they push the button. Not like today's self-proclaimed photographers with brilliant cameras and auto-focus lenses and mindless pictures. Admirations to you brother Matt

  • @kiwikea2002
    @kiwikea2002 4 місяці тому +4

    Thanks for sharing. What struck me (and I don't think that's unrealistic) was Matt saying, "I spent 12 years for 50 photographs." Couple that with the energy ("hyper"? hectics?) he's displaying (and the incessant "clicking" sound on the track) and his commentary (e.g. "doing the loop", projects, ..) while moving along ... well, food for thought, for sure.

      It’s something I’ve resisted so far as I get so few chances to shoot in London and want to capture whatever I can. I’d find it very hard to not take a couple dressed in red because I was doing a project on yellow. Maybe it’s my ADHD?!

  • @traditionalgirl5585

    Having the sun angle low with the deep reds and oranges enhances the tonal quality of black and white photography... If you study your photos, you will see the difference.

    I think the few women in street photography has nothing to do with gear, per se. Anywhere in the world, it is dangerous for a woman to be alone on the street. They are much more threatened. And they are good because for decades we censored, at least did not make room for, their vision. Their place in photography, unfortunately, for us is still new, even with so many excellent photographs. But I don´t know, its just a guess... Great vid btw

    You gotta love this hilarious strangely positive guy, there were other wannabee Street photographer channels advice you to wear dark clothes to shoot unnoticed this guy is wearing bright orange
    Just like myself, always wear yellow, orange or light blue jackets and colourful shirts, cause a friendly smile opens more door than a creepy outfit.
    Gonna spend some time googling his work cause he is very interesting.
    Wouldn't mind seeing more of him and his work.
    Have a nice weekend and again thanks so much for sharing !
