This weeks guest is Street and commercial photographer Nick Turpin

Nick started his career at The Independent newspaper as a Staff Photographer, before he headed of in to the world of commercial and advertising photography, all shot in his documentary street style. Nick prefers to use the term 'Candid Public Photography' as it is more about how humans interact in a variety of public spaces, not just the literal street,

Nick is probably best known for his 'On The Night Bus' project where he photographed people through the steamed up windows of a London night bus. It is a project he talks about in this episode, as well as his The French, Autos and Exodus projects, the latter of which was shot whilst London was in Lockdown during 2020.

Welcome to the Photo Mentors podcast. Each episode we speak to a photographer or filmmaker and find out the experiences and advice that make them who they are today. 

We do this by asking 10 key questions, the same questions to each guest so that we can find common themes and compare how different photographers and filmmakers go about their craft.

1. Who or what has been the biggest influence on your photography?
2. What photographic technique do you wish you knew much earlier?
3. What has been your best photographic accessory purchase?
4. What photo have taken means the most to you?
5. What is your favourite photographic failure? What did you learn?
6. What have you stopped doing and why?
7. What has been your favourite photography/video project?
8. What is the worst bit of photographic advice you have heard?
9. What are you currently learning, or what was the last thing that you learned?
10. What is your motivation to keep taking photos/Video?
