I didn’t grow up dreaming to be a photographer. I didn’t assist for anybody. I just started doing it… The way I do it is just the way I do it.
Beautiful piece here about Scott Schumann, aka The Sartorialist. In the unlikely event you’re not familiar with his work, he’s an ex-fashion guy turned street photographer. Plenty to be learned here for any creative discipline.
Brilliant, simple style.
Confident in his vision.
Living a creative life.
There are a million paths to get where you’re going.
The “digital park bench” — effing brilliant.
who was the music by, hmmm it so fit the mood
beautiful…
Very inspiring video to watch first thing in the morning. Really love how he walks around stops thinks and visualize what he wants to capture. Street Photography has always been something I have wanted to try but never really had to nerve to get out of my comfort zone to do. After watching this I now have the courage to do it. Thank you for posting.
I love how guys like Scott and Jay Maisel have such a smooth and confident approach to shooting complete strangers on the spot. It seems like it would be quite easy to fall into the creep role in the eyes of the subject. I bet a video of all of the rejections would be pretty entertaining!
