Steve Reeves' encounters making street portraits include short interviews that provide a real narrative to his photo stories. He talks today about making portraits on your doorstep and embracing the skill of listening. Also today, the power of the written word within blogs, more about producing your picture-a-day project and how being prepared to ask for forgiveness rather than requesting permission helped one photographer achieve a photograph she may not have had the courage to make otherwise. Be sure to visit the show and contact page to send your photo stories and share thoughts about what making pictures means to you. See the SHOW PAGE and our thanks to the Extra Milers and mpb.com.
