@@TheCameraStoreTV It can be very simple things too. Photographer giving us tips or tricks, reviewing accessories, talking with gallery owners or framers etc. It's nice to have diversity of subjects and opinions. I think people really enjoyed the old gear or significant gear reviews that was done in the past since we can relate to those. Something I would like to see is a video explaining and comparing camera weather sealing and why some brand do a lot better than other protecting their camera from elements.
A very humble and great photographer. We ended up talking about other great photographers in what was supposed to be a portfolio review. It's been a pleasure meeting and running into him while we were doing work. Excited to see his book!
A wonderful, wonderful interview with an amazing photographer, Ev, you are a stellar interviewer, acting as a surrogate for us viewers asking the question we might have while not intruding on the subject, allowing him to express himself.
Thanks for posting. Great interview. You let him speak his mind with little to no intervention or cutting him off. Very casual. Very relaxed. A very enjoyable posting. Coincidentally, recently I have seen interviews in other UA-cam channels, where the interviewer is constantly putting words on interveiwee's mouth or not allowing the interviewee to finish a thought. If it was morning, I would have watched it while having my cup of coffee. :) Looking forward to future interviews.
I've been following this channel for several years, this is a departure from what this channel is usually about. Now that is not a problem, provided you do it well. This was done well, in fact, really well. In addition, perhaps this channel needed such a departure. The interview is done in a beautiful understated way, which fits the interviewee. Furthermore, as other commentators have mentioned, the transitions between interview and photos are very competently done. All in all a surprise from TCSTV, but as all surprises that are good, very welcome indeed. Well played!
Nice video, not just the subject matter but also the camera work and the editing. It’s so nice to see you covering not just cameras, but also the art that people make with them.
This is so good, please keep doing these Evelyn. It's clear a lot of time and thought are put into them, and the reward of seeing a great photographer gently unfold his life's work, taking that quiet pride in things they've seen and done, is enough to have me immediately grab that camera and head out the door again. I like his lack of fuss in his topographical work, the same school as Stephen Shore and Joel Sternfeld. But the couple of glimpses we get of his reportage stuff at 3:46 - two charged and heightened black and white images that really are quite spell-binding, really have my intrigued. I think I'm going to have to put in an order for this book. So yes, please do more of these! I'm hopeful that Canadian photography will keep getting more and more exposure, it seemed sadly neglected by the rest of the world until Fred Herzog was 'discovered' late in his career. In the meantime, for photography that's all about access to communities and closed societies, I strongly recommend the work of Welsh photographers David Hurn and Tish Murtha. The latter I only discovered a few months ago and she just blew me away with her reportage black and white work, shot with no pretense of neutrality but with a real anger at neglect. Finally once again I call on you good people at CameraStoreTV to do a video or two on your book selection - I keep seeing some great titles in the background! Thanks again for the video TeamTCS, and keep it up!
what a great interview! really insightful and interesting to watch thanks for sharing this great content with us and i really really enjoyed watching this!
The more great photographers I meet, the more I notice that they don't care about release cycles and the newest tech, and just stick with what works for them and with what has always worked for them. :)
Am I the only one who noticed the heavy noise on his black clothes. It was kind of distracting. Other than that minor detail, great video. Very inspiring.
He seems obsessed with the urbanism of despair, brought about by the over dependence of the automobile. How can anyone call these towns home? I mean I find the photos very « factual », as he says, and you can’t help but look at them, as one can’t help to look at accidents, or ugly absurd modern art. They describe an age of meaningless existence and cheap mass consumerism where the only escape was TV, booze (now heroine) and the occasional fuck (now internet porn).
This is a million time more interesting than a gear review. I hope you continue in this direction with the channel.
Thanks Sylvian. We are going to try to incorporate these as often as we can. We know way too many incredible photographers not to share their work!

Wow! That was amazing. Great photographs, story and interview. Please do more of these. I think I will visit rural Alberta!!!

Thanks Lars. Brendan did such a great job capturing his concept. We are glad to hear that you appreciate it.

Excellent interview. Thank you.
Great interview and I like the peaceful photos he takes.
Thank you, George, for sharing your work, and your thoughts about it!
Excellent in every sense. Love this.
Another great interview, I like his style a lot.
Loved !!! Thanks guys !
OMG this is the best video on this channel! More please!
Thank you so much for making this video. This kinda content makes my day!
Fascinating artist. Thank you 🤗
This was awesome, thanks
Nice video! I love when you add these segments to complement gear reviews! Keep them coming!
I love this interview. Love seeing what goes on in the mind of legends like George. Will you guys be doing more of these?
Yes, we have a big list of incredible photographers that we want to interview.
Love this thanks!
Well done Camera Store
I really enjoyed this
Really enjoyed this. Could have gone one for another 10 minutes, and would have been equally enthralled. Well done
best interviews by far
what a great interview! really insightful and interesting to watch
thanks for sharing this great content with us and i really really enjoyed watching this!
Very cool subject. I think you guys are on a winner with these sorts of interviews/settings. The rodeo one was great. So is this .
2:38 And that there is the legendary Nikon D700 still producing amazing images and well worth buying today
It goes to show that the best camera is always the one you have with you.
The more great photographers I meet, the more I notice that they don't care about release cycles and the newest tech, and just stick with what works for them and with what has always worked for them. :)
It’s very exciting!
loved it.
awesome stuff
Agree with what he said about analogue photography. I use mostly use digital but I’ve recently dusted off my old F3 & Fm2 to shoot some more 35mm.
Fabulous!
Super. Informative also.
Very good!
@9:41 absolutely amazing !!!
George's website not working unfortunately.
We’ll let George know. Thanks!
Am I the only one who noticed the heavy noise on his black clothes. It was kind of distracting. Other than that minor detail, great video. Very inspiring.
Yeah, we needed more lighting to compensate for the bright window. Sorry it was distracting. But, I am glad it was inspiring too.
Sorry but I wasn't inspired by a single image to get my camera out and shoot boring buildings.
