My friend and German street photographer Marco Larousse joins me on this new Photo Faves episode to share his favorite subjects, places to shoot, accessories, photography books, etc. But you'll soon realize that the conversation turned into an inspiration segment... Take a listen and share!
Favorite Subject:
Street and documentary photography.
Favorite place to shoot:
Almost any place can be inspiring and has some unique aspects that I find worth capturing. You'll just have to open your eyes and find something that is interesting to you.

Favorite Piece of gear:
I'm still looking for the perfect camera for me. It would be a rangefinder style camera that has the most important photographic functions accessible via an external knob or dial. These functions include:
Aperture ring, manual focus option with focus distance and DOF scale, shutter speed dial, exposure compensation dial with at least 3 stops +/-, dedicated ISO dial, focus point selection knob and tilt LCD and or tilt EVF.
- For know Fuji X-Pro 2 and X70 will have to do as they are pretty close to what I'm looking for.
- Leica M2, M3 and Rolleiflex for analog photography.
- My Epson 3880 printer.
- My 5K iMac.
Favorite Accessory:
- Cosyspeed Streetomatic+ bag - The fastest camera bag in the world.
- Gordy's camera straps.
- Thinktank Retrospective 5 & 10 bags.
Favorite Photo Book:
- Magnum Contact Sheets.
- Road to Seeing by Dan Winters.
- 50 Portraits by Gregory Heisler.
Favorite inspiration in the real world:
Books, magazines and meeting inspiring photographers like I just did at PopUp Gulf Photo Plus in Berlin.
