Today on the show, we’re joined by Leonid Furmansky, aka Lenny. Considered one of the best Architectural Photographers in the world, we break down his journey and process.

Lenny’s journey is diverse and captivating, from moving to the USA from the Ukraine as a child, to being a food delivery driver to photographing BMX competitions all before he eventually discovered the world of architectural photography. 

Lenny reflects on starting out, borrowing camera lenses and sneaking into construction sites to capture the perfect shots, and we dig deep on what Lenny is aiming for next, with stripping back equipment and finding the heart of photography.
