EP 56 - Stupid Photography Rules! Who comes up with this nonsense?
A little bit of a rant and … the way I see it there are positive rants and negative rants. This is a positive one. Street Photography is a young medium and in actual fact so is street photography false stop. There are all of these rules and guidelines which are important but there are not so important that people should be scared to stick to not abide by them as if there are some kind of religion.

EP 55 - Behind the SCREENS: Daniella Vale on Her Monumental NYC Installation
PODCAST SHOW NOTESTITLE: 🎬 "Behind the Screens: Daniella Vale on Her Monumental NYC Installation"In this episode, I sit down with Daniella Vale—a filmmaker, photographer, and creative director whose work spans continents and mediums. From early beginnings in Tokyo's documentary scene to collaborations with Cannes-recognized directors in Mumbai, Daniella has built a diverse portfolio. Her projects include work with VICE, MTV, Google, Prada, and artists like Alicia Keys and Deepak Chopra. We delve into her latest endeavor: Path of Liberty: That Which Unites US, a monumental public art installation in Manhattan. Spanning over six acres along First Avenue between 38th and 41st Streets, the exhibit features 45 large-scale screens displaying portraits and audio stories from 50 Americans. This immersive experience invites visitors to reflect on themes of liberty, equality, and unity, serving as a prelude to the United States' 250th anniversary in 2026. Daniella shares insights into the project's conception, the stories behind the faces, and the challenges of bringing such a large-scale installation to life in the heart of New York City.PATH OF LIBERTY DETAILSInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/pathoflibertynyc/Websitehttps://pathoflibertynyc.com/Book your Free Tickethttps://embed.prod.simpletix.com/d5938e0e-0618-4a8a-9ee4-29eebc5e1603/213343DANIELLAS INFORMATIONWebsitehttps://www.daniellavale.com/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/daniellava/MY DETAILSINSTAGRAMYOUTUBEhttps://youtube.com/lashmarTHE DARE PHOTOGRAPHY WHATSAPP COMMUNITYTo gain entry to our WhatsApp community, contact Gary and Katie via the webpage:Community Page LinkWEBSITElashmarcreative.comINSTAGRAM• The Street ThiefInstagram• Dare (idaretoshoot)InstagramTHE INSPIRATION SHOT (weekly photography inspiration)Inspiration ShotZINESThe Way of the Street PhotographerBooks & ZinesMusic by Max BiancoInstagramThank you for SUBSCRIBING.Lashmar (aka the Street Thief)x.

EP 53 - From Stuck to Unstoppable: Inside the Dare Photography Experience
With the next Dare Photography Experience just a week away, this episode dives into why workshops like this matter — and why most photographers hit a wall despite all the tutorials, books, and gear advice out there.We’re not talking surface-level fixes here. We’re talking about the deeper shifts: how to break through creative plateaus, why discomfort is essential for growth, and what kind of support actually helps you move forward — both as a photographer and a person.If you’re curious why the Dare Photography Experience keeps selling out — or just want to understand what kind of mindset change unlocks real progress — this episode is for you.In this episode of The Dare Photography Podcast, I dig into the connection between mental health and street photography—from raw self-doubt to waking up and potentially experiencing a healthier state of mental health. I talk about the need to challenge ourselves, to step outside the groove of familiarity and to operate more fully in the now moment. This ain’t a polished self-help chat and still my hope is that it is useful. I talk from my experience hopefully without preaching. This is not about fixing anybody. People are fine as they are. They perhaps just need a little light to guide the way.
