Prime Lenses

A camera is just a tool, but spend enough time with photographers, and you’ll see them go misty-eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small, fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget. I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why

Marcus Haslam is a photographer from the south of England who has retraced his roots in the north to make pictures of his hometown.

2025/07/20

Scott Toepfer is part of a proud tradition of folks who drop out of what they were doing to drop in on their calling. He has worked as a microbiologist, photographer, producer, director, I’d say triple threat but I’m not sure that covers it all. I first discovered him through his 2011 book It’s better in the Wind. The book accompanied a short film and when I started the podcast I realised I should try to combine stuff I love, cameras and motorcycles, into one guest. This is a classic prime lenses

He loves landscapes and has recently started to print his work with an eye on books and other physical media in the future. One of the things I really like about Brendon is his growth mindset.

2025/07/06

Gaston Shutters is a photographer and entrepreneur. Like me he’s dabbled in a bunch of industries from tech to tattoos but as you’ll hear, the through line is a consistent love of making and tools. Now, at his company Owl Krown, he’s got the band back together and is making a host of great looking straps. Gaston was in the office the day I spoke to him so there’s some coming and goings which I think add a bit of texture and we end on a lens I’d love to find a good copy of. We could have talked all

2025/06/29

My guest today is Brandon Ruffin. Brandon was Leica’s ambassador for the M11-D but as you’ll hear throughout the conversation he is a lover of image making on just about any type of digital or film camera. He understands the importance of experience and the impact that can then have on the things you make. He also works at Google on the camera team and I am so glad that someone with a real understanding of photography is embedded there. A pairing of art and science is where the magic happens so I’ll

My guest today is Summer Murdock, a Utah based photographer and photography educator who specialises in kids, lifestyle, and portraiture. She shoots everything, stills and motion, and my favourite images of hers are collections she’s made under water. You’ll hear in our conversation that she’s not stranger to a busy set but knows how to craft and find light for quieter sessions too. I love the texture and movement in her work. She is also clearly a wonderful human being as she not only responded

My guest this week is Nick Rains. One of the great perks of making this show is getting to sit down for a while with someone whose work you’ve enjoyed. Nick has had a long career that has seen his photographic horizons shift from small terraced houses in Manchester to broad landscapes in countries all over the world.

Lucy Lumen is a Photographer, writer and YouTuber based in Australia. Like a number of recent guests, she shoots a great deal of film of her client and personal work. She’s got a really healthy attitude to gear, working closely with her husband to get the right tools for the job and her healthy approach to gear means she doesn’t obsess. What I do like is that she focuses her attention on the ideas and thinking of creative power houses like Brian Eno and Rick Ruben and shares that with the audience

Craig Mod is a writer, walker and photographer based in Japan. He has lived there for over 20 years and I love this work. If anything the podcast is proof to me that if you follow folks for long enough you’ll eventually find a way to work together. Craig has a new book coming out next week so now seemed like the perfect time to sit down with him to discuss making images, leaning into limitations and the importance of focus when making.
