A different take on Photography Magazines
As photographers, we really didn’t like the fact that when we bought Photography Magazines, we never got anything out of them. We found them dull and uninspired, and they mostly featured the same people over and over. One providential day, we (Don Springer + Olivier Duong) met by chance saw the possibilities: To create the Photography Magazine that we wished we had. And shortly after, we did.
We were sick and tired of seeing the same photographers being featured, either the famous ones or the past masters. But what about those who are working today? Master photographers are a closed group that had their glory days, and the famous one are already famous, so why put the spotlight on those who already have enough?
So we decided to feature our heroes: Normal working photographers that do passionate work. We featured mothers, grandmothers, full time office workers, full time photographers, people we all can relate to and be inspired from. We love photography and we believe it borderlines tunnel Vision to always feature the 1% (make that 0.3% or something) that are famous at the detriment or sometimes more deserving photographers who work hard at their passion. These are our heroes.
We believe that what photographers do matters and Inspired Eye Magazine flows naturally from that belief. We don’t care about credentials, wealth and accomplishments, our currency is in terms of passion. The world is full of shooters and we make it our task to bring to the spotlight the full spectrum of photographers. The Magazine is made up of photographers and enthusiasts like you who live out their passion and in turn help you live yours.
Who is this Magazine for
We created Inspired Eye to be accessible for anyone who is interested in Photography, whether you are a Pro, Amateur or Anything in between. It’s for those who like photography in general, but the focus is on Street Photography, Documentary Photography and Travel Photography in particular. It’s all about “real life” photography if you like.
