See the Notting Hill Carnival through the eyes of TWO featured photographers this month: A Celebration of Demonstration and Wayne Crichlow

Their project and book “Carnival of Resistance” is different from many books that have come before it. Rather than presenting a single visual language, it embraces two distinct perspectives on the same living culture.

And culture, after all, is never experienced in exactly the same way by any two people.

Their advice for young photographers?

don’t wait for someone else to tell the stories that matter to you.

Photograph your neighbourhood.

Photograph your family.

Photograph the people, places and traditions that shaped you.

The ordinary things you see every day may one day become part of your community’s history.

In doing so, you become the keeper of stories that might otherwise fade with time.

The next generation deserves to inherit more than headlines and statistics. They deserve to inherit memories, faces, laughter, celebrations and the small moments that reveal who we really were.

The camera is simply one way of making sure those stories are never lost.

What can a street photographer learn from an independent filmmaker? (I said this out loud as I typed and my 4 yo said “is that a joke?” 🤣)

Well it’s not a joke lol, and turns out, there’s a ton photographers and filmmakers can learn from one another. James Choi is a great example of that.

Interestingly, James recently contributed photos to the beautiful book “Seoul Days & Nights” from Trope Publishing Co. when he returned to South Korea, his home country after 46 years! We talked about our sense of identity, vulnerability in creative endeavors, and the importance of keeping it simple in a complicated world.

Hope you enjoy our conversation with James as much as we did.

“The Jehlum has accompanied me all my life. I walk along its banks almost every day. It is difficult for me to separate the city from the river. The old bridges, the houses leaning towards the water, the reflections in winter, all of them belong to my earliest memories. Sometimes I think the river made the city beautiful and then the city returned the favor.” - excerpt from “Still Carrying Time: Downtown Kashmir” by Saqib Ali 🩶

Every photograph has a story. Not just the one inside the frame, but the one behind the person who made it.

We share their projects, their challenges, their adventures, and the moments that changed the way they see the world. Along the way, we hope to inspire you to slow down and look a little closer, and to stay curious.

We're proudly independent and subscriber-supported, which means we can focus on thoughtful storytelling instead of chasing headlines or algorithms.

As a subscriber, you'll receive six new feature stories each month, delivered straight to your inbox, plus full access to our archive of interviews, essays, podcasts, and photography from around the world.

If you believe photography is about more than pictures, we'd love to have you join us.

“Something that keeps me coming back to Birqash is not just the scale of the market, but the relationships within it. My work focuses on environmental portraits, images that place people within their context rather than isolating them. Here, the connection between trader and camel makes for a frame that is layered and complex. It is shaped by economics, tradition, and necessity. For many, this is more than a marketplace; it is a livelihood passed down through generations.” - excerpt from “Biqash Camel Market” by Yasser Alaa Mobarak

Kantaya New is our guest on the latest episode of the .

Huge congrats to her as a newly announced X-Creator with Fujifilm X Singapore 🎉 and, Spidermen aside lol, there is a lot to learn from Kantaya in this episode. Her work spans from street to conceptual photography and it is thoughtful and funny and just fun to look at. Of her street photography, Kantaya says “Life is already complicated enough. I want my street photography to do the opposite. I want to make people smile. I want people to feel alive.”

Head over to your fave podcast platform and give it a listen folks. This was a fun one. ✨

Way back in 2014, Margarita Mavromichalis told us that putting yourself on the other side of the camera can change the way you photograph. It reminds us that every person we point a lens toward has their own story, their own comfort level, and their own humanity.

We agree. What’s more, we would argue that empathy is an important element of great photography. 💫

“Susan Meiselas once observed, “Photography gives you an excuse to be someplace you otherwise don’t belong.” Her words aptly described my eight-year project shooting carboneros (people who make carbon, or charcoal) in the rural provinces of Cuba. What led me deep into the woods to hang out with and photograph campesinos (country folks), where carbon has been made the same way since the Colonial era, was a combination of curiosity and opportunity.“ - excerpt from Carboneros de Cuba by JOHN B ROSENMILLER
