I think it's cool that he is shooting with a SLR and not with a Leica.
Good for a change.
Yeah finally😁
been watching this series for awhile but just saw this one and had the exact same thought.
Chris is a real genuine guy. Was great to meet him in person and chat. Glad you did this with him. With everyone tbh cause you're really preserving the history of NYC street photography by doing these interviews. 🍻
Thanks Chris for giving us who don’t live in a metropolis words of encouragement.
He appears to me to be an introvert who is using photography to force himself to be different. I am a street photographer in Barcelona who just loves the whole process of getting good exercise as I walk for 6 hours or so and aim my camera at anything that I think is interesting to me. I don't care what other people think of my photos although it's nice that some observers of my photos give me great compliments. However, that is not at all the motivation that keeps me going out every few days for a 6 hour walk aiming my camera and trying to capture interesting images with it. The more photos I take on a trip, the more photos I can choose from that I like and willing to show other people. I think of photography as a recording of my life journey that when I look at some of them years later, I can bring back the memory of taking that photo in that moment.
Such a breath of fresh air in terms of camera equipment. Great video and conversations ✌🏼
Also need one with Daniel Arnold por favor. Thanks for doing these vids man they inspire me to go out more often too.
i’m getting through all these. super cool to hear all these folks talk and see them work. keep up the good work my guy, these are legendary
These interviews/features are always so cool. Preciate you introducing us to cool NYC artists.
is chris related to erik voss from new rockstars????????
Favorite line "It's America, we love hot dogs...I'm vegetarian. Oh!" 🤣
really amazing series Paulie. One thing gets me everytime: "gear doesn't matter">"would you shoot digital? no never" hahah
Very common for someone to say the camera doesn’t matter while holding a £2K camera
Voss Sauce !!!
A+
Ive been following chris for a while ! and i fuck with him how he handles that hotdog vendor !
This is such a great series to find who's in the game right now and find good inspiration. love it.
That hot dog vendor is a herb.
"You probably get yelled at once a day" I worked customer service and it's 90% getting yelled at haha.
He’s right about the customer service stuff
Went to IG to see his work. Its one of the best body of work i have seen by walkie talkie guests
great conversation with one of NYC's best street photographers - thanks for a good video
Something I’ve always wondered, do street photographers on nyc and people you’ve had on this channel, do they have other jobs other than photography? If so is it related to photography and art? Or for some of them is street photography more of a hobby/side gig?
I'm a street photographer in Barcelona where I live with my Spanish fiancee'. Each one of us photographers have different reasons why we do this but the main reason is that we have this strong desire to aim cameras at what we think are interesting images that we observe. Otherwise we wouldn't be doing it. With that strong desire, we come up with other reasons so for me, it's like a recording of my journey that is meant only for me because no one is with me while I'm walking around taking pictures. I can look at photos from 20 years ago and it helps me remember those times I saw those images that I captured. I have trouble recalling most life experiences of the past so photography is a great way to record some moments of my past life.
Other street photographers end up teaching photography or produce a photo book and try sell them for money. Some street photographers might be perverts who secretly take photos of any human bodies that they find sexually exciting which is probably what many street photographers are into. I'm only giving you some knowledge about being a street photographer and the different reasons that go along with our desire to do it.
I used to live in New York. Was living in Florida and hated it. Wound up living in Seattle. I miss New York. Like a salmon I return to New York. Usually in the middle of September. This year it’ll be midOctober.
I work for a living. As a result I don’t walk the streets nearly enough. Will retire soon and my new job will be taking pics on the street. What kind of gig can you get, other than some other form of photography, to support your street addiction? Is there a 12 program for recovering street photographers?
Mask On Nurse Marty
Finally, a guy without a Leica
Finally
I noticed a couple of photographers were graffiti writers first. Same as myself.
great conversation, your Walkie Talkie format is amazing and I love Chris' work too. Thanks Paulie.
Great work thx for sharing... "I would shoot BW before I would shoot digital" 🤣🤣🤣
Nippon can fix that if I am not mistaken they are on west 37th so not far where you are in the video.
Loved the "street photographer with social skills? C'mon", comment.
I was in NYC right around the same time you shot this one, I recognize so many of the video billboards. So cool to see how Chris works, especially with the flash.
I dislike the pretentious attitude of street shooters that don’t want to interact with randoms but make their bones getting into randoms personal space lmfaooo
Lmfaooooooooo
That’s interesting because I think if you live in a small town or city and try to do street photography that’s more practice or like a drill. It’s more difficult. I feel like that would be training harder for the game. The game being NY. Small towns n cities are a lil more difficult to shoot in my opinion. Far less “moments” to capture. For fresh eyes New York is like a kid in a candy store.
After watching alot of street photographers, this dude seems pretty real and sincere. I find some photographers can be really pretentious and sniff their own farts. And people only like their work cus they hype it up so much, when its avarage. Nice work dude
I can respect him for saying theres more to NY street photography. I still believe NY is the undisputed king of street because that's where it all started. Tokyo would be the same thing if only a plane ticket to Japan was cheap and there were no Visa headaches. I love taking pictures in my hometown, but NY has a variety of unpredictable moments to photograph, everyone's photos never look the same.
weird because i feel like a lot of street from NYC looks alike...
❤
'It's America, we love hotdogs... I'm vegetarian.' 😅
Chris seems so nice, heading to nyc tomorrow, wish I could meet you guys and shoot!
I’m not a photographer…why is digital photography out of favor?
its not, but film has a different aesthetic to it, or just nostalgic.
the FE was my fave the AE lock on timer was genius
I like this dude the best out of this whole series.
16:25 Taking a video of someone taking a picture of someone taking a picture
This guys work is incredible.
Yes!!! Chris is the best ❤️ Loved watching this
Nice to see a fellow, painfully awkward photographer. Love the images!
love this guys attitude and outlook.. been following him on the gram for some years now. Im loving these vids man... when are we getting the Danny Arnold one?!!?!
We love Chris!
Why does everyone dunk on digital?
a lot of it is just banter but it's really hard for digital to replicate the film look, even with todays cameras attempts at replicating it. So logically the only real way to get that look would be to shoot film, obviously haha
@@RagsCS i get that.. but they make it seem like it's the worst thing in the world.
Paulie, could you make more of them asap? It’s the third time I’m watching all walkie talkies again 😂😂
Why did you do the interview behind the angry hotdog guy?
damn he's sick!! what you used to write? :)
Nice work and talk. For street photographers doing it as their only income, what are some ways they make money for a living via street photography? Would like to hear it as part of Walkie Talkie walks from various photographers.
Most don’t make a living with street photography, not directly. Some do commercial photography work (weddings, portraits) ad agency gigs, magazine gigs or workshops. There’s print sales and UA-cam and other social media. Usually, it’s a combination of all the above. Most have regular jobs and they do street photography on the side. I don’t know of anyone who makes their living solely through street photography
Really enjoyed this one! His style with the flash was quite interesting to watch.
love these so much, please do more. much love from australia
10/10
What film does he shoot with ?
Dont shoot my Hot Dog LOL
I wish I had the confidence to do this.
I love photography and find people so interesting.
I’m way to introverted, nervous and anxious at the best of times.😢
Guess I’ll just stick to photographing trees, clouds and my dog.
11:00 My old hobby was paintball, and a lesson I got from it was this. I am now getting into street photography and the similarities are there, the trill, finding a pace, predicting behaviour, rhythm and timing. Learning risk and consequence. Fun stuff :D
DON'T TAKE PICTURE!!! That guy was pissed lol Maybe he was just having a rough day 🤷🏾♂️BTW, Great episode and interview! 👍🏾
I need a NY trip ASAP!
YOOOO! THAT OPENER HAD ME DYING, WITH THE GUY, WHO SAID, "DON'T TAKE PICTURE!" VOSS RESPONSE, HAD ME ROLLING -WHY? IT'S A HOTDOG!!!!🤣🤣🤣
I love my FE2! I've been shooting with it since 1985. Another great video!
This was incredible and really eye opening to anyone who suffers from GAS. Myself included😬
oh hell yeah
loved it
i’m learning about the youth/my peers in this community and also getting mini history lessons within the video.. this is content. :)
“We love hot-dogs.. Im a vegetarian” 😂
Always looking forward to seeing your walkie talkies.
Oh man, I can't stop watching walkie talkies
first of all i fucking love these series man. i discovered these a few days ago and i cant stop watching. Second of all chris is a great guy. i really loved his work and him being humble and not showing up with a 4000 dollar camera was also refreshing. Thanks for giving us these videos.
Great video as always,
Wish I had the balls to take photos of strangers like that!
Is the gear such important ?
Legend
5 years is a long time shooting street? Uh..... what?
“Yeah I dunno” 😂
Chris is incredible!
why film?
9:47 dope
20/20
I usually refuse to watch videos of this length, but they are so engaging that I can’t miss one! Keep it up.
He thinks the Times Square kiss photo is messed up because it’s non consensual but street photographers are mainly treading in non consensual territory taking photos in many cases without consent
That crown girl seemed uncomfortable too.
idk having the cross comparison of "the kiss" being non consensual and just taking photos of people without consent is kinda a stretch
While one is protected by law, the other really isn't especially by todays standards
Chris is so right about NYC being "practice." I've always felt the same. I tried making street work here (nyc) but it's always felt like it's been done. I never felt like I was getting at my vision or relationship with the city. Making work elsewhere is much better. If you are not from New York City and want to photograph street, please do so. We don't really need any more city street photographers.
