shoot what you love to shoot -- Walkie Talkie with Tyler Woodford (ep 42)

[@JoeRomaire]

Tyler is a great example of not obsessing over trying to emulate a certain style of photography for others approval. Just go take photos and have a damn good time doing it. ❤

[@davidellinsworth3299]

Exactly. While I love being inspired by others I tend to use it as fuel to get out enjoying photography rather than style emulation (although I probably do that subconsciously)

[@DavidBirchphoto1.]

Couldn’t of put it better myself, just enjoy taking photographs.

[@paultaylorphotography9499]

Love how Tyler is happy doing his thing it suits him he just shoots what he enjoys. nice work

[@adlcworld]

This is such a refreshing interview. Dude is just in his own world. No convincing. Just doing his thing.

[@adlcworld]

I don’t know if Tyler will read comments but I’m always curious what motivates photographers to simultaneously shoot a scene with multiple cameras. He has the 6x6 and 35mm, and I imagine for composition, but why not just crop with medium format? There’s no rational answer; I’m sure it’s just preference, but wondering if he could give his perspective.

[@chubrubb2098]

This is the true value of photos. YOU get to decide what’s important with your camera.

[@aawonnewton]

He seems so at peace with this new style. Also best hair in the game.

[@l1catalyst]

what a wholesome walkie talkie. instantly happier today

[@jeffhoffman3429]

This is a side of New York I've never seen. It's quiet and peaceful and reminds me of the desert in a way. I love that Tyler found his passion through photography in such a unique format.

[@scottneumyer]

Tyler just seems like a super nice, genuine dude.

[@mattdayphoto]

Opening shot and he's already posted up at a fence. 👏

[@the.jonfernandez]

😂

[@heyitsgerard]

It's not a bug, it's a feature

[@J_masters_photography]

Wish I could find my style like Tyler has. Could watch this guy all day. Super relaxed creative

[@jsgc13]

Introvert's Photography style, my style! and i loved it! My favorite episode so far...

[@crashryanphoto]

He is definitely one relaxed photographer ...

[@mackdj43]

I'm starting to like these newer videos where it's not necessarily your typical street photography locations or centered around subjects/people, but more about the environment. I was skeptical at first watching the video, but ended up loving it by the end. Thank you, Paulie!

[@jesusisapisces]

Omg he's like a child at heart. I really admire his inquisitiveness, imagination and gentle demeanor. When I started watching this and grasped what he preferred to photograph, I didn’t think I'd like it but after a few minutes in, I do!

[@burmashavetom]

I don't think anyone in any of your other vids enjoys photography this much. This is pure passion and happiness coming together. Loved this one.

[@ryangillespie3849]

This is what photography is all about. If a scene is speaking to you just photograph it. Really loved this video!

[@charlesmahon6487]

This guy made me feel less alone. This is so inspiring.

[@kyddrob]

wow the shot with the car hiding at 20:55 *chef's kiss*

[@jaeryan1337]

Agreed! I said WOAH out loud when that one popped up 🔥

[@Bryan-lu4du]

Best one of the video. Really nice

[@mrfredbasset]

Nice to see someone shooting at a “slower place” in the heart of the New York there’s always something happening so it’s easier to take pictures. But shooting a quiet place you have to consider the scene more. Side note - always shocked when that deep voice comes from Tyler 😂

[@noahbealand]

The honk + shutter click synergy at 1:48.

[@mrfacetious]

Much love from somebody who walks the same walk every day through somewhere quiet and always takes the camera - you get a shot that makes you buzz less often, but it's super rewarding and always keeps your perspective new.

[@margetschistah]

really one of the best walkie talkies. tyler is a legend!

[@redrosemassacre1]

Man, I grew up right around here. So nuts to see this neighborhood covered.

[@OBFLife]

This is so refreshing. I've been feeling so uninspired hanging in the Loop all day. Need to branch out.

[@rxmvisualsllc]

Keep doing your thing tyler. I needed to see this video as a reminder how fun photography is when you are in your own lane.

[@AronjAnderson]

What a breath of fresh air. I predominantly photograph in NYC so seeing another New York photographer photographing in such a different looking and feeling place within NYC was very interesting. Great video and great photography 🤝🤝🤝

[@Klektic]

That third photo of the guy on the bike is really excellent.

[@kevinhughes5157]

The one with the stop sign growing out of his head?

[@alfredoziano]

Love that you document photographers branching out of street and explore other genres, this is really inspiring.

[@silukfoto]

This man can really njoy stopping time... That's meditation ❤

[@LK-cc4uj]

This channel is so, so fucken good. Thanks Paulie B. It’s so nice to hear about people speak openly about their creative process. You don’t even need to be into street photography (or photography in general) to connect and relate to the creative process, how to define your own voice authentically, and dealing with creative road blocks…. A few themes I find present amongst all your interviews.

[@Craig-rc8wb]

Amazing insight showing that theres more to life and photography isnt just about sticking a camera in strangers faces.

[@filterfreephotography]

I love his excitement for nature in the urban environment.

[@joshywhvick]

such an amazing photographer, love his calm approach and subtle details he finds in his images

[@Propellerhead1]

What a lovely guy 🙏

[@unplugdphoto]

Great episode. A dude, with a camera, shooting what he loves.

[@joyasafriend1666]

encouraging, especially coming from a small town

[@JohnDoe-ws5iv]

His eye is so much more different than most people! I love it! You’ve got a new fan Tyler!

[@martinlawrence8427]

Best photography channel on KZbin, always a treat. Cool work and inspiring attitude Tyler!

[@Anthony-df4bs]

Tyler is a complete 180 from the Trevor Wisecup episode. He's so laid back.

[@mattdayphoto]

My boys ❤

[@dislocational]

very inspirational - the truth is in simplicity

[@benscamera8354]

Very wonderful! And I sympathize very much. The same scenery will never exist again. 👍

[@mattbray_studio]

good guy, good attitude, good pictures

[@JORDYVISION1904]

That's awesome he's genuinely stoked. I totally get that. It's a different feeling when making photos outside of the city.

[@nilsheck9245]

one of my favorite photographers out there. Thanks for the talkie walkie:)

[@uhosso]

One of my fav walkie Talkies! Paulie B you have created such an amazing series inspiring everyone around the world, no matter what subject matter street photographers are in to. It's all very positive. Tyler is the type of guy I'd introduce to my mother haha. The way he carries himself and the way he sees his world through the lens, he ought to write a book. Love your work everyone! Cheers for getting me out of the house and greetings from Australia!

[@robifleming]

This is my favorite video of yours. I love Tyler’s attitude and positive outlook.

[@StephenAttongPhoto]

Yes Tyler!!!!!

[@Via_Negativa22]

I relate so much with his work because that's pretty much my type of photography too.

[@rossandhisjpegs]

Superrrrrr inspired after watching this! Thanks 🎉

[@barrychattillion1705]

Great enthusiasm for everyday, simple things.

[@textcentric]

Really interesting! Thank you!

[@DanielMista]

Great video. Very inspiring. Lover Tyler’s style and subjects.

[@beansproutuncreative]

Paulie, you are such good luck. The people you interview get some cool shots and new interactions every time.

[@Rooster1904]

Love the channel , i like that he shoots what he likes as everyone should

[@terryclark8745]

Nice work. Good eye. Reminds me a bit of the book "Suburbia" by Bill Owens. Visual poetry in the commonplace.

[@BradleySwainAwesome]

It took me a minute to figure out why the sound on this one seemed so different and it's because there's so much less ambient city noise

[@GaitaPonto]

beautiful photography.

[@outtathyme5679]

Rockaway Beach has an interesting vibe and I’ve never seen anyone document it

[@TheUrbandilema]

Wow thought it was only me into this type of photography--will have to take his tips...kudos to him he is truly an artist.. awesome interview Paulie and thanks fot making my weekend

[@JBRose]

So interesting. Truly art. What is it about fences? Made me think back to the poem Mending Wall by Robert Frost. Definitely story in this... a book and show for sure. Even just to Tyler's point on how the fences have changed over time, through his many trips back.... Love it.

[@LeneMulan-jt2dc]

I sm addicted to this channel i am a street photographer in san fransisco california

[@matiasmere77]

Love this!

[@ultimatechrisso6592]

So funny man I just started the video saw the pictures and immediately thought of Mark Steinmetz. Tyler then starts talking about Marks photography and his inspiration by him. South East, South Central and Greater Atlanta are such great books!

[@haeskenhoff]

Love this channel 👌🏼✨

[@Alcofibrasnasier]

This was great, i live in a slow area where people are very suspicious about you when you have a camera. So i'm trying to capture the environnement as well and it's not that easy! His pictures were refreshing and gave insights

[@tim_butcher]

It’s awesome how you follow your curiosity, Tyler. Stay curious 🤟

[@RV-ej3dp]

805 babyyyyy

[@jasonscott5639]

What a sweet and talented guy

[@haramaschabrasir8662]

The light was so generous that day

[@brianbprice3693]

Black and whites look great

[@inkaststudio]

The hair gods blessed this guy 😄

[@bhop.builds]

Nice. This was a really interesting episode for me. My photography and thought process seems to be pretty much the same as his. I don't get a ton of hits on my images on social media, but it doesn't really matter all that much, I still enjoy it. I've always assumed people just think this style of photography is just too boring.

[@Danxph]

another banger 👏

[@Lachicanafotographa]

When you coming to Denver?? Would love to do a walkie talkie!

[@maximeleblanc7828]

So much more like me than any other feature photographers ✌️

[@jooorley]

Such a great guy. Would have loved a chicken-fence-photo at 12:07, haha, but otherwise I really liked that almost all photos he took were shown in this episode. Keep it up!

[@TomchyCanadian]

Tyler, you should totally go out there in the cold and winter weather. I bet that place would be a whole new world for you to see anew. Just layer up 😂

[@carsonsillito]

Hasselblad is beautiful

[@spearit66]

Enjoyed! Nice!

[@evertking1]

Whatcha the head and look for stuff coming out of the head when doing a portrait.. poles, trees ECT.... Good video

[@damiandwornik1071]

How to get this kind of sharp photos on analog camera?

[@ejbernal2]

22:20 Believe me, there have been worse things than bottle caps that have washed up ashore over there!

[@mikutai6395]

This neighborhood reminds me of a lot of the neighborhoods down here in Louisiana

[@kevinchristopher1443]

yeah believe it or not there's a lot of places in the united states that aren't the bustling metropolis area of new york city

[@mikutai6395]

@@kevinchristopher1443 honestly next time I visit I would love to pass through it, it has a very nostalgic look to me

[@ruperstition]

Pardon my ignorance but what is that little medium format camera? Looks like a compressed version of a Hassy. Looks sick!

[@davidt1888]

It’s Hasselblad SWC with a built in Zeiss super wide angle lens and external view finder. To me it is a work of art from an industrial design standpoint. The photographic output has a great depth of field.

[@goopcat]

Taking pictures of the street.

[@diegobluc]

Street photography.

[@xity_]

Something to watch while I edit W

[@furtif02100]

je voyage avec cette video!!^^

[@blubblab4238]

What bag does he have?

[@clebb534]

need. follow up with andre, maybe seeing him shoot and him in his studio working

[@gcoutdoors904]

Im learnin to not take photos unless im having fun or making money. If i aint makin money i better be having fun with it. Sometimes i find myself thinkin "this looks like something i should be photographin" but i feel like its boring.

[@emanuelbief7088]

I have to say when I see those lonely places in the United States I feel like I'm watching the movie Friday the 13th which is great and the purpose of photographing them is to maintain that image for the times.

[@CJBesuzzi]

anybody know what shoes he's wearing

[@Tiziano212]

How can he focus so fast ? Did he use zone focus ?

[@fl2325]

Anyone know the film he’s using?

[@kelvinkelvo83]

Love fences

[@Fecho33]

This is one of my fav episodes so far, i like this guys style and phylosophy, next step is to realize you dont need to wear a Leica around your neck to make photos.

[@theblackmanarmedwithacamera]

DUDE NEEDS TO GO RIGHT BACK TO THAT BASKETBALL COURT AND CAPTURE IT FROM PAULIE'S PERSPECTIVE...BEFORE THAT FENCE GETS REPAIRED!!! IM SURPRISED HE DIDN'T GET THAT SHOT! WOULD BE SUPER EPIC IF PEOPLE WERE PLAYING BALL WHILE GETTING THAT SHOT!!!💯💯💯

[@seanc5718]

Of course his name is Anthony lmao

[@SourPlanet]

8:10 🤌🤌

[@brandoboe]

I like his stuff; I wish he would jam up the contrast or develop with more contrast in mind. The images still look a little flat for my taste.
