Portland Oregon based photographer and journalist, Gina Williams, visited the London photo Expo in May and took some extra time to do some street shooting of her own in London and Paris. In the process Gina wrote an article about her experience which will appear in the June issue of street photography magazine.
Gina took some time out of her busy schedule to talk to me about her experience at the show as well as her experience attending a street photo workshop with But to explain some more about her experience Gina spent some time with me discussing the Expo and her experience earlier this year while attending a street photography workshop in Paris with Valerie Jardin earlier this year.
You can hear Gina’s interview on this edition of the Street Photography Magazine podcast.
This month we are starting a new monthly feature on our website called the SPM street photography gallery. Each month we will feature a number of images from members of our Flickr group that best represent a particular category of street photography. For example this month’s category is Lines. The first edition of SPM street photography gallery will be published next week, so keep an eye on the website. Join or visit the Street Photography Magazine Flickr group today.
On July 20 I will be hosting a street photography photo walk in Cleveland Ohio during the Republican national convention. Because this is the first time were doing this going to limit attendance to a maximum of five photographers. We will spend the day shooting on the streets around the city and convention venues. Afterwards we’ll get together to discuss our favorite photos some of which will be selected to be used in a photo story about our experience which will be published in the magazine.
I expect that it’s going to be total chaos on the North Coast (that’s what we call the Cleveland area) that week so this one is not for the faint of heart.
If you are interested send an email to me and include “Republican National Convention” in the subject line. Space is limited to the first five people to submit their request. Attendees will be contacted with the time and location.
