This week, we're taking you to Mongolia, travelling across the vast open steppe in Russian UAZ vans, meeting nomadic families, and discovering a way of life shaped by the land, the seasons, and the animals that depend on it. photowalk.show/episodes/mon... #photography #podcast #photowalk

This week, I'm with David duChemin, wildlife and humanitarian photographer, author and teacher. He tackles questions from the Biscuit Tin, as well as bigger questions I want to put to him this time about resilience and relevance. photowalk.show/episodes/dav... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Twenty-five years after September 11th, a generation has grown up knowing that day through photographs, television footage and the recollections of those who were there. photowalk.show/episodes/jas... #photography #podcast #photowalk #sept11

This show has always belonged to its listeners, so today I’m handing it over to them: their pictures, their letters, their walks and the things they've noticed along the way. photowalk.show/episodes/mai... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Passion is perhaps an overused word in photography and sport. This week German photographer and journalist Kai Behrmann joins me to talk about his long-term project exploring Argentina’s extraordinary relationship with football. photowalk.show/episodes/kai... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Australian travel photographer Ewen Bell, @ewenbell.com, has spent more than 25 years making pictures across the world, from the Himalayas and the Australian Outback to the Arctic. But what remains after all those journeys and all those photographs? photowalk.show/episodes/ewe... #photography

Photographer Jon Carmichael wanted to photograph a total solar eclipse from 39,000 feet aboard a commercial airliner. That meant calculating where the Moon’s shadow would fall, finding a flight capable of meeting it, and somehow securing exactly the right seat. photowalk.show/episodes/jon...

It seems like the simplest question, and it’s one I ask every guest, yet it's almost always the one that reveals the most. Why? Not just why do you make photographs, but why do you create, why do you keep going, why does any of it matter? photowalk.show/episodes/wha... #photography #podcast #why

We pass roadside memorials daily. A cross, a handful of fading flowers, a photograph weathered by the sun. Most of us glance at them for a moment before driving on. Photographer Miranda Remington did something different. She stopped. photowalk.show/episodes/mir... #photography #podcast #photowalk

This week, The Photowalk heads indoors to the Highland Print Studio in Inverness for an experience that's a world away from the instant gratification of modern photography. photowalk.show/episodes/pho... #photography #podcast #photowalk

While I'm away in Scotland leading the Scotland 2026 retreat, I thought it would be fitting to bring you a "from the archives" interview-only special with Scottish photographers Albert Watson and Kieran Dodds. photowalk.show/episodes/alb... #photography #podcast #photowalk

I’ve wanted to create something that sits alongside The Photowalk. Something that can be held, revisited, left on a coffee table, tucked into a camera bag, or discovered again months later. REFLECTIONS is the result, available as a printed zine and digital PDF with audiobook. photowalk.show/store

Today I’m joined by photographer and collector Tim Rice, whose remarkable archive of cameras, lenses, film stocks and photographic memorabilia has become something of a museum dedicated to photography’s past. photowalk.show/episodes/tim... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Photographer Tim Rice's career has covered social photography and headshots to branding and commercial work, the sort of varied, real-world photography that has supported generations of working professionals behind the camera. photowalk.show/episodes/tim... #photography #podcast #photowalk

I’m joined by @seantuck.bsky.social for a conversation about writing as a creative act; a way of noticing, a way of understanding yourself, and perhaps even a way of staying awake to life. photowalk.show/episodes/sea... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Today I feature Fran May, a British photographer whose black-and-white work from the 1970s captures a version of Britain that has largely vanished: northern towns, street markets, pubs, kids playing out, and Brick Lane in London. photowalk.show/episodes/fra... #photography #podcast #photowalk

This week’s guest is Paul Mobley, one of America's most accomplished portrait photographers, a man who has spent his career looking people in the eye to tell their stories through photography. photowalk.show/episodes/pau... #photography #podcast #photowalk

This week’s guest is Ruth Guest, a photographer and cyberpsychologist who’s spent a lot of time thinking about what’s really going on when we make pictures in a world that never seems to stop producing them. photowalk.show/episodes/rut... #photography #podcast #photowalk

No show this week as we are on a break, so time to dig in to the archives. We will be back next Friday, April 17. photowalk.show/episodes #photography #podcast #photowalk

India isn't a country that eases you in gently, doesn't really do gentle. In this special, we go to two cities. Kolkata, in the east and Varanasi, on the Ganges, which may well be the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world. photowalk.show/episodes/ind... #photography #podcast #photowalk

After a handful of specials, four weeks away from the studio, and a journey that took me to Bangladesh and India, it feels a little overdue, to make this a mailbag week, walking one of my favourite paths with camera and Sir Barkalot. photowalk.show/episodes/mai... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Today, the show travels to Bangladesh. It’s the first of two specials, as we visit India too in the coming weeks. photowalk.show/episodes/ban... #photography #podcast #photowalk

In this second part, Giles Penfound and I are back at Penwood in Berkshire, England, to make one special single picture using 5x4, paying homage to the late Dennis Lee, an American community member who passed at the start of 2026. photowalk.show/episodes/htt... #photography #podcast #photowalk

In the first of two episodes, I walk with photographer Giles Penfound in Penwood in Berkshire, as he slows down to make a single large-format image of a giant tree, a portrait created in honour of a photographer known to us both. photowalk.show/episodes/one... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Strangers When We Meet is a street portrait project built as much on conversation as photography. In it, Tim Allen approaches people he has never met, talks with them, and then makes their portrait. photowalk.show/episodes/tim... #photography #podcast #photowalk

Part two of The One, the result of asking listeners to send me one photograph from 2025. Not necessarily what they considered their best, just the picture that said to them, “This was my 2025.” photowalk.show/episodes/the... #photography #podcast #photowalk
