2Interviewing Boston Street Photographer Kathryn Riley
Kathryn Riley might not be one of the most familiar names in Street Photography, but she definitely has a great eye and passion for Street Photography. The 22 year old Photographer from Boston started her career when she took pictures from her brother’s hockey game but sooner than later she turned her focus to Street Photography.
I had a T driver once threaten to call the cops on me. He thought I was invading people’s privacy. He said, “Some guy could be having an affair and you’re taking a picture of it,” and I was like: What? On the T? He was just really animated about it. But it was nothing too serious.

3Tarik Ahmet
“People fascinate me,” says Tarik Ahmet, a London-based documentary portrait photographer. “The way they interact with a smile, a nod or barge on through with their head down, trying to make sense of the world. Human nature, it’s so hard to understand but it’s fascinating nonetheless.”
4Robert Doisneau – Exhibition
Magnum Photographer Robert Doisneau was always attracted by the elegance of Paris’ streets. But he not only provided insight to the obvious scenes that happened in public, but also presented his view behind the stage of catwalks and fashion shows. In partnership with Vogue he documented this extraordinary society from 1949 to 1952.
The Direction of Cultural Affairs in Versailles is set to reveal another, lesser known, side to Robert Doisneau, in association with the Robert Doisneau studio and in partnership with Vogue Paris during this Paris Photography Month. At the request of Edmonde Charles-Roux, who became Editor in chief of Vogue Paris in 1954, Robert Doisneau was granted access to slip backstage at fashion shows, private parties of the elite and other exclusive events between 1949 and 1952
5Seeing Ainu as they want to be seen
“Imagine this place,” says Italian photographer Laura Liverani, as she tries to conjure up a picture of Nibutani, the village where she spent two months living with and photographing the indigenous people of Hokkaido. “There’s about 400 people that live there, it’s not very well connected to other areas so it’s very rural. There’s a strong presence of the Ainu, not only because 70 percent is of Ainu descent, but because it is culturally very active.
6Following Daniel Arnold
Daniel Arnold has a fascination with Midtown Manhattan — “It’s kind of a time capsule of New York,” he said — and that’s where most of these photos were taken, between November and January. A photographer with over 135,000 followers on Instagram, Mr. Arnold is known for finding humor in everyday New York moments, like people standing around eating hot dogs or dogs pulling on their walkers. In this case, he was also looking for the lively and eccentric style found on the city’s wintry streets. He walked us through the moments he captured below.
