    Fred Herzog is my favorite. I randomly found his book at my local library and fell in love. I get what you're saying about the feel of his work. I think the attitude of documentary work is accurate, and something we should all do in film photography. Create those images of what's going on because years later they'll have the richness and value of the past.

    Fred Herzog was a local to Vancouver, B.C. and photographed a lot of it from the 50's when he emigrated from Germany (I believe). Sadly, we lost him earlier this year. He only really started publishing about 10 years ago. A good choice. I personally find a lot of inspiration from him.

  • @TheIppoippo
    @TheIppoippo4 жыл бұрын

    Maybe controversial opinion ... but perhaps the appreciation of Leiter, and thinking ‘of you posted his work on Instagram it would be considered a banger’ .... is that I think some photographers were aware of his books/style via books. They learnt from it, adapted it a bit and uploaded to Instagram. As they did that, it became a fashionable style. Don’t get me wrong. I love Leiters work. Beautiful. He was the original. But I think a lot of people on Instagram and other social media don’t recognise where this style card from. I think Craig (sixstreetunder) is an amazing example of someone who has taken this style, and out a modern twist on it.
