Cedric Roux
Cedric Roux

French photographer from Paris. It took a first trip to NY to overcome my natural shyness and dare to take the plunge to start photographing.
Since that day, I’m trying to take photographs wherever I am.

Tomer Vaknin

I’m Tomer, 36 years old, father of Emanuel and Ariel, married to Sharon and my Leica camera.
My love story with photography started at 17. At 22, the hobby became a profession, and with Leica – I realized a dream.
Leica is a manual camera brand that enables single, clean and clear photography.
Each photo with her manages to capture truly special moments, one by one.
Taking pictures with her on the street is one of my greatest joys in life.
When I’m not filming in the country, I go to Berlin or New York City.
There’s nothing like Sunday’s atmosphere, freedom or market in Berlin, or the beautiful people of the East Village in Manhattan which has long become my second home.
My photos have starred in coveted magazines in the world of photography, and at National Geographic Photography Competition,
I was awarded second place in photography in interesting areas in Berlin.
On my Instagram page, everything has come together: document the day-to-day authenticity, teach Emmanuel to take a photo with her personal Leica.

Daniele Zarri
Daniele Zarri

I was born in a small Italian town, which helped me in the search for details, I have a relationship with free photography, I prefer to go along with my personal research rather than receiving instructions.I shoot alone on the street, I like the company but I feel more comfortable if I am alone.
Photography has always been a reason for me to document life, in recent years I have changed the approach to this type of documentation.
I feel lucky to have recognition in Italy and in the world, with which I have been able to relate to other realities and get to know enthusiasts of street photography.

About The Collection

Since 2014 I started using the camera as a tool to create a moment of personal escape.
I have many shots in the archive but I mostly publish juxaposition shots with which I am better known.
I like to create stories by combining elements that I find on the street, sometimes surreal other bizarre, I move with my mind always full of the details that I find on the street trying to keep them all under control and foreseeing what can happen.
This approach frees my mind from daily commitments and makes me feel completely immersed in this vision of mine.
I prefer not to pose the subjects and find satisfaction in being able to capture a moment that could hardly repeat itself in front of me.
When i take the time to take pictures, I love to stay suspended in this search of mine even for hours, with a camera in hand you are never alone.

About The Collection

When it comes to Dhaka, most of the time we get to hear how overpopulated the city is, or how bad the living conditions are there.
Before photographing streets, I used to think like that too.
But once I started exploring the streets in Dhaka, especially in the old town, I found that this city is full of hidden gems.
The 412 years old capital city of Bangladesh is filled with history, traditions, architecture from Mughal and British era, and people with authentic, unique lifestyles.
Especially the old town of Dhaka is full of life with the essence of true Bengali lifestyle. All the narrow lanes, alleyways are very photogenic, each street have its own vibe and character.
Though in a first glance it might seem very chaotic and crowded, but eventually I fell in love with that chaos.
There is a certain beauty in the middle of that bustling crowds, old buildings, and streets. It’s very raw, vibrant, and part of the daily life.
That’s what I wanted to capture in this series, to show how different and unique life can be in this part of the world.

Denis Cherim
In my almost 33 years of life, I have been fortunate enough to live in several cities of different countries like: Constanta, Istanbul, Madrid, Palma de Mallorca, Toledo, Bucharest, Sofia, London, Kaohsiung. As a self-taught photographer my passion for details has helped me discover a new dimension of visual understanding while acquiring a taste for the depth hidden in what seems to be meaningless.

About The Collection

I began to develop the Coincidence Project in late 2012. I came to realize that living in a society bombarded by information and images, the surroundings go unnoticed in front of our eyes and seem banal. Through the photograph of “coincidences” I have been able to rediscover the mystery of the reality, to show the underlying unity of the Whole through the juxtapositions of the elements that surround us daily.
My search focuses on those details that make something very known and usual to us get out of its ordinary existence, to become a story that consumes you. The art of the coincidences that I gather in my images consists in the creation of a new space, free of duality, where we can escape and recreate ourselves. The images do not show beautiful, flashy or glorious scenes, but special places where the opposites meet to unite their differences. Where there are two, there seems to be three, and where there seems to be three there is actually only One.

Richard Koci Hernandez

I went many years without asking a crucial question about my photographic obsession with hats.
Why? I think I was afraid of the answer. I think I still am.
It’s such a visceral attractio one that often has me going to great lengths to capture the “man in the hat”—that I’ve jumped into oncoming traffic and put myself in harm’s way to get the shot.
I knew it was something deep inside me. I avoided thinking about the why for so long, but I’ve finally come to terms with the answer.
First, it’s not a fashion statement and it’s not about the hats themselves—it is about the man under the fedora. It’s really about looking for the father I never had. I’m searching for my dad and in a twisted way a man in a hat is the ideal 1950s stereotype of a father figure.
So, I keep coming back to the streets, searching, searching, searching

Nukul Leekanchana
My name is Nukul Leekanchana, a small business owner from Thailand. I’m 42 years old. I started shooting in 2017. Street photography is a hobby that I am passionate about. Before that my hobby was gaming, so go shooting on the street is kind of a game for me. It’s fun because you never know what you’re going to see, what you’re going to get while you go out. Street photography gives me spaces to use ideas to create and tell stories that are sometimes beyond reality. For me there’s a lot more to learn in photography, in order to communicate better, to know myself, and for me learning is another kind of fun too.

Ole Arnt Thomsen
All my life I have been photographing, but about four years ago something happened – I “discovered” street photography. It was really a revelation for me in my photographic work to include a person’s interaction with his/her surroundings. And people in an urban environment can really provide lots of opportunities to catch interesting interactions.Besides my passion for photography, I work professionally with industrial and graphic design.I graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 1987, and I have lived in Copenhagen, Denmark, most of my life.

About The Collection

Mankind is a flock animal and we feel safe when we gather in large groups.But occasionally we stand alone. We unconsciously conquer the space we place ourselves in.We interact with it and own it for a moment.Our presence brings an unknown story, which activates the imagination of a witness to the scene, and a new visual context emerges.A photograph can sometimes bring an unknown story alive.
It can accentuate and maybe clarify.
