In this episode of Meet the Streets, join me as I explore New York City through the eyes of Stephen Yang, a freelance photographer. From literature student to acclaimed photojournalist, Stephen shares his journey, the challenges of blending news with street photography, and the art of capturing candid moments. We discuss his shift from full-frame to Fuji crop frame cameras, the poetic shift in perspective with age, and the rich diversity of New York's streets and subway scenes. Hear his candid thoughts on photographing Midtown's drug users, navigating neighborhoods, and cultural shocks while covering Trump followers in small-town America. Enjoy humorous contrasts between New York and Phoenix, and reflections on the evolving landscape of news and politics. This episode is packed with fascinating stories, insights on street photography, and the essence of documenting the world with a beginner's mind.
