Nice! It would have been good to know more about you also apart from your photography interests :)

sorry to disappoint but it is a photography related interview meant to built a community around photography. i don't think is any help if i tell people my background education, what i do for a living or my age 😊

I do think people like to know a little about the photographer. There is a part of you always in your photography. Not in the literal sense like you have mentioned but in a deeper way.

And maybe we can get to know the person through their photography intrests.

Haha, nice interview. Still a mystery but that's fine. Great list of Japanese photographers. Like that as well.

it is this community that introduced me to photographers that i never heard of in my life so i tried to formulate the question in a way that a photographer can present others

Off to a good start. I'm looking forward to this series. I take your point about focusing on photography rather than the person, though personally I always like to know where people are in the world. Perhaps it's because I'm a serial expat and don't feel particularly rooted anywhere.

Ah, so exciting to read about you! I still have to email you my answers. I haven't forgotten and it's still on my to do list.

I cannot wait to check out the Japanese photographers you mentioned. Thanks for sharing those!

I think this will be a very fun series to look forward to every week.

Here I am. Who wants to blame me? I still think it’s a good idea to start with yourself. And I am with Shital, I would have liked to know a bit more about the person (the person itself can decide how they want to share of course)…
