In this episode of Street Life, John and Mark dive deep into the world of street photography with our special guest, Suzanne Stein, a talented street and documentary photographer based in the east coast of the United States. Known for her compelling visual narratives that explore themes of social justice, homelessness, and the human condition, Suzanne shares her unique journey into photography, which began during a challenging time as a single parent.
Throughout the episode, Suzanne candidly discusses the challenges she faces in the current photography landscape, particularly in the United States. She expresses her frustration with the editorial gatekeeping that often sidelines work that addresses uncomfortable truths about society, especially regarding homelessness and mental health.
The conversation takes a personal turn as Suzanne opens up about the dangers of her work, sharing harrowing experiences of being assaulted while documenting life in Kensington, Philadelphia. She reflects on the emotional toll this type of photography can take and the burden of feeling obligated to tell certain stories. Despite these challenges, Suzanne remains committed to her craft, emphasizing the importance of authenticity in street photography.
