Photojournalism - The rise and fall

THIS VIDEO: I will start this video discussing the rise and fall of then I’ll take you through a recent week-long assignment that I undertook for the UK Sunday Times in Zimbabwe. During the past two decades this type of work has declined sharply and is now extremely rare. The heyday of picture-driven magazines was between the 40s and the 60s when magazines like Life and Picture Post dominated the media. There were plenty of opportunities for photographers. ABOUT ME: The conversations focus on topics related to different aspects of photography including: art, documentary and photojournalism. The discussions explore the personal experiences of photographers and artists and how their work reflects both their internal and external landscape. During the past 30 years I have photographed in over 50 countries for magazines including National Geographic, Time, New York Times and Newsweek. I have held solo exhibitions in New York, London and Paris and my work is showcased in private and institutional art collections around the world.
