Today I saw a someone on the subway with this Nikon F5. I knew I had to chat with him and get a snap of what we were each carrying. I love that you can see a fellow photographer in the wild, a complete stranger, and most are so happy to chat about a shared passion. Love that for us.

Every photograph is a memento of light that will never be quite the same, of fleeting moments and emotions. Of a piece of ourselves that will never live again but also never die.

I love seeing people fall in love with photography. The excitement and passion of our newer photographers is a vital part of the photo community.

When a photographer is a fan of a band or artist, I love when you can see that connection and that love in their photos. As a music photographer, being a fan is a super power.

Do you still have your first camera? What was it? This is mine, my Nikon FM3A. Ran a whole lot of Tri-X and HP5+ through this one. This is the camera that made me fall in love with photography.

A few favorites. My first camera, gifts from friends, and some souvenirs collected along the way.

We need to start a gift exchange with photographers who have never been given a lens mug and all the photographers who have been given far too many lens mugs.

I love referring other creatives so much. It's a pride in community and a feeling of collaboration that takes so little effort for a huge return. One of the best feelings to connect talent with opportunity and see someone do an incredible job.

Some of the most successful and creative photographers I know arenโt technical shooters. Technique can help make your vision a reality. And some executions are highly technical. But technique alone is rarely the most important aspect of making images.
