Inspirational Photography Films/Documentaries


Adam Woodhouse

Recommended Posts

Couldn't find if a thread like this already exists.  

 

I thought it would be interesting for people to recommend photography related films/documentaries.  It is through sharing topics like this that I've learned of some great vid's.  I'm not referring to movies that had a photography component ... I'm referring to films on photography or the photographer.

 

Maybe share with the film title and a link to learn more?

 

 

I'll start:

 

 

Finding Vivan Maier (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2714900/)

War Photographer (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0309061/?ref_=nv_sr_1)

Masters of Wedding Photography (http://www.mastersofweddingphotography.com)

Annie Leibovitz: Life Through a Lens (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0887304/)

Top Photographer Competition - TV show on YouTube: (www.youtube.com/watch?v=kS9h3lOCo0s)

Canon's Tales by Light series is currently available on Netflix: http://petapixel.com/2016/11/12/canons-tales-light-tv-series-now-netflix/

 

It's not your typical photographer, but there's Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters.

 

Of course there's From the Edge with Peter Lik.

Thanks for the recommendation of Canon's Tales by Light series on Netflix.  That looks very good.  I'll check it out.

 

 

 

A New York street photography documentary I recently watched on Netflix ... 'Everybody Street' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2784462/?ref_=nv_sr_1)

 

Another one of interest (not on Netflix) is 'The Mexican Suitcase' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2017015/?ref_=tt_rec_tt)

    • Ahoy ye hearties! Hoist ye yon Jolly Roger and Cascade away. NGC 1502 The Jolly Roger Cluster:

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing, but it is well worth the effort.

    • Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?
    • See what I mean? Two instantaneous ads. Worthless.   
    • What's the deal Fuji X Forum? I'm noticing there are seldom replies to any topics - except for advertisements posted as replies. Really lame. Anyone else noticing the only reply they receive to a question is an advert?  🤠 fotomatt in Colorado
