Turn Street Photos Into a Project with VALERIE JARDIN - Episode 331
How do individual street photographs become a project? In episode 331 of the Camera Shake Podcast, street photographer and educator Valérie Jardin joins Kersten Luts to explore the choices that turn a folder of images into a meaningful body of work. Valérie explains how she recognises recurring themes, chooses photographs with instinct and sequences images into a book. Through projects about hands, local trades and centenarians, she shares how an idea can evolve when you meet the people at its heart. We discuss working with a consistent focal length, finding projects close to home and making strong photographs without showing faces. Valérie also explores the fear of photographing strangers, the difference between humour and ridicule, and knowing when a project has become too easy. Whether you’re starting a personal project or developing your photographic voice, this conversation offers practical photography advice on seeing, selecting and staying curious.
