Today I won’t present anybody.
I know, I know, but trust me, you can still enjoy your coffee with this article.
Instead of presenting somebody, today I want to invite all of you to take a moment and have a small little celebration as today marks a year since started “The Sunday interview” series. I don’t know how you feel about it but I’m happy with this achievment and I think it deserves a moment of celebration. I got many messages from all of you mentioning the Sunday morning coffee together with interviews and those messages brought me happiness and showed appreciation for my work. I think by doing this I managed to bring the photographic community on Substack a bit closer and maybe helped it to grow a little. Of course, there are other people on Substack doing interviews with photographers and I hope more people will do similar things. I wish them all the best, community is the winner here. I cannot go any further without mentioning other people doing work for the community:
and his Darkrooms magazine and interviews, and his projects on street photography, the famous , and so on.I want to thank to all the people who encourage me to do this series, to all the people that took part in the series and to all the subscribers and followers. I want to thank all for the lovely messages and all the restacks - these are the small things that make a big impact and help the community grows.
As a token of appreciation I wanted to tag all the participants but Substack won’t allow me saying that will exceed the email limit, so in order of appearance here’s the list of the awesome photographers that took part in the series (yes, I’m the first):

“The Sunday Interview” will return next week. Have a beautiful Sunday!
Congratulations on the anniversary and a massive thanks for all you do for the photography community here on Substack. Here’s to your next 51 interviews! 👏🏻👏🏻
It's a great series, and I enjoy reading it a lot. It does take a huge amount of effort, planning and grit to keep these things alive and going during a year, and that's a milestone to be rightly proud of. Looking forward to future ones.
