In this episode, I revisit conversations with two remarkable photographers whose work and generosity have left lasting impressions. Steve Shipman, who we lost in 2018, built a career capturing portraits for newspapers, magazines, and leading corporate clients, later turning his lens toward weddings, social photography, street photography and legacy family projects. His archive reads like an A-to-Z of notable figures, with some of his portraits now held in the National Portrait Gallery’s archive in London.
Charlie Waite has spent decades shaping how we see the British and international landscape, his work marked by a painter’s eye for light, form, and balance. Through books, exhibitions, and teaching, he has encouraged countless photographers to truly observe. Charlie’s warmth and openness have made him a guiding presence for many in the photographic community, with an influence that goes well beyond his own work.
