Welcome to the first episode of Photographers in Paris, a new series where I explore the art of photography through the eyes of the talented artists who bring the beauty, life, and soul of Paris to the world. Rather than taking the traditional approach of quick street interviews, I wanted to create something more cinematic—an in-depth, high-quality look into the passion and craft of these photographers. This series is about storytelling, about diving into the inspirations and histories that shape each artist's work.
For this inaugural episode, I had the privilege of sitting down with VuThéara KHAM, a renowned photographer whose singular images have helped redefine modern perceptions of Paris. His work masterfully blends street photography with the city’s timeless architecture, offering a fresh yet deeply nostalgic view of everyday moments in the French capital.
What makes VuThéara's story so compelling is that photography wasn’t always part of his plan. In our conversation, he shared his unexpected journey into the world of photography, the moments that shaped his artistic vision, and how he captures the fleeting magic of Paris in his images. From quiet alleyways to bustling boulevards, his work tells the story of a city that is constantly alive, yet intimately personal.
Through Photographers in Paris, I hope to bring you closer to the creative minds behind the camera. This series isn’t just about technique or gear; it’s about the passion, inspiration, and personal stories that drive these artists to document Paris in their own unique way.
Stay tuned for more episodes as we continue to uncover the world of photography through those who know Paris best—its photographers.
