Today we welcome back, Lauren Welles, someone with whom we’ve spoken with a number of times over the years. Lauren left a successful 16-year career as a corporate attorney to follow her passion for photography, which she has been doing professionally now for a little over a decade. She is primarily self-taught, and her photography has taught her even more about herself than the subjects she has photographed. She believes that, as human beings, we are much more alike than we are different; her passion for street, documentary and event photography reflects that. Over the last few years, Lauren has spent more of her time teaching others what she’s learned, often revisiting the way she imparts information, attempting to simplify her language and instruction as much as possible.  In addition to being a Leica Akademie instructor, Lauren teaches photography to high school students from underserved communities at the NYC SALT program in New York City. In collaboration with Leica Akademie, this August Lauren will be giving a workshop about learning how to see, which she says is a skill that anyone can learn, regardless of how proficient one is with the technical aspects of their camera.A selection of Lauren’s street photosLinks from the show Lauren’s Website Lauren’s Manhattan/Coney Island Workshop Instagram B&amp;H Podcast interview with Jean Furth about her Little League book and project The post Learning to see with Lauren Welles first appeared on Street Photography Magazine.

Learning to see with Lauren Welles

ON ASSIGNMENT: SEVILLE, SPAIN PILGRIMAGE TO EL ROCIO Today our guest is New York Street and Documentary photographer Lauren Welles. If you’re a regular listener or magazine subscriber then you’ve likely heard her before. She’s a former attorney, now full-time photographer who is passionate about her craft. On top of that she’s witty, articulate intelligent and just a fun person to talk to. I just had the best conversation with her about storytelling through photography that I want to share with you here. During our conversation she told me about a Leica sponsored workshop she is holding in Seville Spain in late May – Early June along with photojournalist John Kral. It’s part of the ongoing Leica Akademie Series. And Street Photography Magazine will publish some of the best images from the workshop in our August issue, so be on the look out for that.

Street Photography Storytelling with Lauren Welles

Lauren Welles is a freelance photographer based in NYC.  Prior to becoming a full- time photographer, she spent 16 years practicing law.  The same skills that were invaluable to her as an attorney-- the ability to problem solve, and to see something from multiple perspectives—have been indispensable to her career as a photographer. Lauren shoots many different kinds of assignments—events, portraits, editorial, street/documentary, and architectural/interiors.  As a result, she has had the good fortune of meeting and working with many different people, finding stories in every-day life that demonstrate one’s humanity, and figuring out how to bring out the best in any subject. Her photography has been exhibited in various venues including "The Fence" at Photoville, NYC &amp; Atlanta; the Museum of the City of New York; PhotoLeiden, The Netherlands, Umbrella Arts Gallery, NYC; The Center For Fine Art Photography, Ft. Collins, CO; Arsenal Gallery, Central Park, NYC; and the HistoryMiami Museum, among others. Her work has appeared in publications, including the New York Times, La Repubblica, Adore Noir magazine, the New York Law Journal, PDN Online, Rangefinder Magazine, World Photography Organization, the Phoblographer, Women in Photography and Street Photography Magazine, among others.   Resources:        Download the free Candid Frame app for your favorite smart device.
