Great photographers you've NEVER heard of!

[@matthewrygh]

Thank you so much for the feature, Ted! Always love the work you do

[@Mattdevbrass]

Wow, the Yorkshire Vivian Maier. True treasure.

[@alextaylor3125]

She was yes although she was a working photographer too

[@Mattdevbrass]

Yes, lovely work

[@Mattdevbrass]

Also, I sent an email to inquire about purchase

[@AndyPentax]

Thank you Ted for continuing to help people here on your Channel discover amazing photographers. Like Vivian Maier & Alice Longstaff its exciting that today we can still discover work of such quality and inspiration.

[@alextaylor3125]

Thank you so much for the lovely review on our end of the roll book we are so glad you liked it

[@barneyallen5377]

The book looks wonderful. I’ve emailed asking for information on how to get hold of a copy.

[@markwalkerphotography]

That Alice Longstaff work looks amazing!

[@alextaylor3125]

It really is that good it's a privilege to work on her negatives and show them to the world

[@simoncarter7020]

Alice's work is Awesome .. what a fabulous project. Congratulations to everyone involved.

For Mihai: 42 is not too old at all. I put aside photography in my late 20s when I could not afford film costs anymore, and certainly could not afford a DSLR yet. I did not get back to photography until I was 41, but I'm almost 50 now and doing well with it. My uncle bought his first pro-camera at 81 and has spent the last several years learning to use it. It is never too late.

[@MihaiiPop]

Sorry for the late reply. Thank you so much! I really appreciate you and your encouragement. I’m going to keep moving forward and doing my best. I’m happy to hear you are doing well also. Thanks again

[@lightbox617]

I turned from armature to pro in my early 40's. I go my first solo show in NYC the year I turned 55. I was diverted due to raising two teens by myself but went on to curate shows and work in portraiture, nudes and lots of community development. Go forward.

[@MihaiiPop]

@ thank you for your story and encouragement.

[@JimBracher]

Longstaffs images are fantastic. Thanks for sharing this.

[@bimurtyaganguli6442]

Jose Miguel's work is just stunning! I was captivated in each of his frames! Also, hearing Mihai Pop talking about his dreams of joining Nat Geo one day was so relatable to me. I am so proud of him that he mustered the courage to talk about his dreams, because I share the same dream but have never been brave enough to express this dream of mine. I have always thought that I don't deserve Nat Geo and I am hugely overestimating myself in even thinking about getting selected in such highly esteemed organisation with a rich history of extraordinary photography. I am only 26 though, long road ahead, but well, it doesn't cost much to dream right ? :')

[@jkjoker777]

been watching for a long time. not many channels that are about the art of photography not just gear preordered your book!

[@b.slocumb7763]

Every time I watch your videos, it makes me want to grab my bag of old cameras and go out and take pictures. I’m still tinkering with the idea of a zine and really need to get to it.

[@Anon54387]

For me, photography is best as a hobby. The idea of selling photography seems like nothing but frustration to me that would take away from the enjoyment. So many people are out there selling photographs that it is tough to break into, and all the more in that buying a photograph (or a zine or book of them) is a luxury so the vast majority of people, even those who like photography, will not actually purchase it.

[@b.slocumb7763]

@ I would completely disagree. When you are good at something, it needs to be shared. I wouldn’t like photography nearly as much if I wasn’t enjoying other people’s photos. I am almost always broke, but when I can purchase something, I do. If I could afford all the photography books and zines and prints, I would buy them all. It makes me happy to sit with a book of great photos, and if any of mine can do that for someone else, then that would make me happy, too. It’s not about making it a career, most people would hate that. As a hobby, it should be shared with others. Just like with art, what’s the point of doing it if you hide it from everyone? We are social creatures and some feedback is necessary. When you make something that makes you happy, there is a good chance there is someone else out there that might be made happy by it, too. That kind of feeling is fantastic. Always share your talents with others, but don’t expect to get rich from it. But don’t be a slave to it, either.

[@lightbox617]

I had a friend and co worker who threatened to do a book called, "The 37th Frame." At one point, he suggested including my work and that of another photographer who worked with us. Most of it was commercial; weddings, corporate meetings and Bar Mitzvahs. Before we could commit, there was digital. I couldn't adjust to the 1,559th frame.

[@MaiElizabeth]

That’s very well said. Like it’s meant for me.

[@stuartbaines2843]

Alice Longstaff book was Excellent😀 Never tire of seeing people images done So Well. 👍

[@coach_yo]

Ted, love each of these and please don’t stop

[@jameshoward-white2288]

End of the Roll looks fantastic. I love photography books that capture a moment in time and a past generation. I live in Hanoi and there's a famous photography book here. Hà Nội 1967-1975 by German photographer Thomas Billhardt, photos taken during the war. It's beautiful. And I highly recommend it.

[@markpimlott6056]

Wow amazing, I lived in Hebden Bridge for 25 years and never knew about her.

[@maxbolenkab]

Thanks for sharing this stuff, Ted. It’s refreshing to just hear some good old photo book discussions.

[@LHCPhotography]

Thanks for the video, it's motivating me to start a project that I have been putting off.

[@streetphotographyguy]

Thank you so much for introducing these great photographers!

[@AbelTravel]

Great video. Thanks. Yes, National Geographic is still a monthly magazine but has gone through a transformation in the way of updating the content to appeal to a younger generation.

[@timothyplatt6053]

Love your coverage of this stuff... so much creativity.....

[@ThePhotofit]

If you haven’t already reviewed it, look at the work of Marilyn Stafford; an English photographer who died last year aged (I think 96). She was an outstanding photographer.

[@josephhawk1]

in reference to National Geographic, They have changed how they do things as of late, due to the internet forever changing the printed word. Now, you bring the story and have to pitch it to them. You really have to sell it, and if they approve, they will give you funding to go develop the story. It's all on you though. You're the writer, photographer, videographer, trip planner, etc. Look up a photographer by the name of Jason Edwards who was a NG photographer for 3 decades. Might give some insight. Jimmy Chin is another great photographer who is currently working for them, and has a master class on.... Master Class.

[@Skipsul]

Would love it if the budget allowed me to pick them all up. Excellent work.

[@jedi4355]

Thank you for the amazing reviews. Do you think it might be possible for you to include where the books were printed in future videos for the books you are showing casing? I would love to send you one in the future. Thank you

[@UnkDrummer]

Great video Ted, I've been looking but not located a video of yours on Low Key photography ? Can you share a link here for me ? Thank you

[@donaldsanchez7099]

Wonderful look at life in the UK from Longstaff, but I couldn't find the book for sale from the link or anywhere else. What gives?

[@AndrewBassonZA]

i have a question, black and white photo books that focus on portraits that play with light , any recommendations ?

[@travmcbride]

I love Ted

Do you like every book etc that comes to you? where is the negative feed back. the same for your choice of cameras.
