Since February 2015, Ffoton Wales has been shining a spotlight on the diverse and dynamic photography scene across Wales, bringing you intimate conversations with talented photographers.

Each episode delves deep into the stories behind career paths, practice and images, as photographers share their creative processes, professional lessons learned, and the unique perspectives that shape their work. Spanning regions from north, mid and south Wales, from documentary photography to fine art, Ffoton discussions offer an independent, grass-roots exploration of the full spectrum of contemporary photographic expression in Wales.

Whether you're a photography enthusiast, student, a working professional, or simply curious about the visual arts, Ffoton Wales offers an authentic and informative insight on talented photographers based, or making work, in Wales. Join Ffoton founders Brian Carroll and Emyr Young, along with other guest hosts, as they track established and emerging photography talent, one conversation at a time – with new episodes released as they are completed.

In addition to carrying our audio conversations, the Ffoton YouTube Channel also hosts short films and video segments with photographers. www.youtube.com/ffotonwales

Steve Benbow – Part 1
STEVE BENBOW IN CONVERSATION WITH BRIAN CARROLL
CHEPSTOW, AUGUST 2023
(released on the Ffoton podcast 4 November 2023)

Part 2 of 3

Steve Benbow trained in photography under David Hurn on the original Newport Documentary Photography course in the mid-1970s, after which he was a founding member of the Ffotogallery in Cardiff, a founder of the respected London-based ‘Network’ Agency of photojournalists; and an international professional photojournalist for over twenty years working with photo agencies in London, Paris and New York.

Along with his wife Kate, a photo editor at The Times and US News and World Report, he returned to Wales and started the Photolibrary Wales for Wales-specific stock stills images; and then Video Wales for video production. Steve is now retired from photography but was one of the top names on Ffoton’s hit list of photographers to interview when planning for our website and podcast in mid-2014. Mission accomplished.

This is the first of three parts, and explores Steve’s entry into photography, his time on the Newport Documentary Photography course, and the formation of the Ffotogallery in Cardiff.
