Thats right, I officially ticked of the biggest box on the street photographers bucket list. New York City.
It was everything I thought it would be and more but also, oddly familar. I recognised the streets from films, youtube videos, photo books but that doesn’t give you a real sense of how it feels. What is the energy of the place like? and I don’t think I can describe it very accurately either. you’ll just have to visit it yourself.
So here’s a little look into what that trip was like, this is a week of street photography in New York City

Good shoes are the number 1 thing that a street photographer needs. More important than choice of camera.
Absolutely, I learned this the hard way over the years haha
Went to Hamburg for the Meet&Street arranged by the Hamburg street photo collective. The weather forecast told me it was going to be Niagara falls. So, I took only waterproof boots. Big mistake. No rain, only sun, and extreme pain in my feet
I’ve always relayed that advice.
No other city compares. I love seeing people, especially other photographers, come here for the first time. That sense of bewilderment is a good reminder of how lucky those of us that shoot here year round are.
Just incredible! I hope you don’t mind me saying as I’m an old chap, that in later years I honestly believe the friends and other photographers in New York will hold so much more personal value.
I honestly loved every minute and feel this has been my favourite watch this year 👏
Thank you so much! really appreciate the kind words.
funny how nyc is tthe street photographers meca. Just wild to think that a single city can be that exciting.
Loved this video! It is a dream for me to go and visit and shoot NY, so I'm really happy for you you got to do this! You got some really good shots there, with a real NY vibe to them yet they are refreshing, well done! 👏
I really enjoyed this video. New York is my absolute favourite place in the world, what a beautiful, exhausting visual treat. This video totally captures what I love about this city.
So inspiring!
Great video as always Mike - you caught some absolute bangers! Looks like you had an amazing trip 👌🏻
Cheers man! Thanks for the comment, appreciate it.
Amazing photographs and an awesome time.
Glad you enjoyed it
This is the video we needed😮💨✨ 35min of good vibes and photography👏🏼
glad you enjoyed it! Thank you.
I agree 😊
Great video, and glad you spoke up about shoes, and how many steps someone can get in on a single day of exploration. Love Portra , whenever I see photos from that film , especially city imagery, it always feels like going back in time to the 80s/90s nyc. The nostalgia.
I've been to NYC a bunch of times, but never since I've been into street photography. I've been dying to go back. It's fun to see anyone's first reaction to how insanely huge everything is there.
I think about this alllll the time.. I went New York in like 2019 or 2020.. did all the sites.. took a bunch of photos but I wasn’t really into street then.. feels like such a missed opportunity.. and I don’t think imma be going there anytime soon
everything is massive haha
Thanks for such a great video diary of your trip to the great City of New York.
That was such a awesome video!!. I will probably never see New York for a week. However, your video took me for the experience through you guys. Great Job guys!!
I just came back from the USA, having been to NYC and Boston/Massachusets - not only for photography, but also for. And seeing this video, I remembered a lot of scenes I've seen - and love your images of this crazy place. So thank you so much!!!
Watched this from beginning to end (twice). Wow is all I can say. Would be a dream for anyone and more importantly you got to spend it with quality like minded people there which is a bonus when going around a big city. Great tips in between and the places that you checked out were awesome. On top of all of that the photos were winners even when you think you didn't get the best. One of the best youtube videos I've seen this year, seriously.
This comment made my day, thank you so much for watching (twice)
NYC energy for street photography is like no other. It's tough to describe like you mention, you just gotta be there in the moment.
Great times! I have been fortunate enough to have been in the city a dozen times or so, and concur that it's definitely a photographers dream trip. You hit all the highlights and your output was very productive. Well done!
I’m literally in the airport on the way back home. I just did my dream NY trip for photography too! The feeling here is crazy and the photo opportunities are unlimited.
Also what you said about the feeling of this city is sooo true. It can’t be described!
I knew this video was gonna be amazing and you didn’t disappoint! Loved every second of it!
Take me back! Also that shot at washington square park with rhe great light is 🔥🔥
Annual trip? Thanks man!
@@MikeChudley yesssirr
Very cool video Mike! Love your shots that capture an special moment, great work!!!
Great vid and some cracking shots Mike, I'll have to stick NY on my bucket list! will never understand why some still love film though, each to their own I guess but it just seems so alien and a faff in this day an age.
one of your best videos 👍 thanks for sharing - would love to see a small note (subtitle) in your photos indicating focal length of the shots you are showing, would help us newbies ☺
Thank you!! Noted
Paulie nerding out with the spreadsheet and graph was everything!
Looks like you had a blast of a time, happy for you Mike!
Thanks man! Appreciate the comment.
Absolutely stunning shots
Glad you had a great stay!
How New York feels is as unique as the residents. For me it is like being wrapped in a warm comfortable blanket. For some people it is exciting, for some overwhelming. Also, there are completely different vibes in different neighborhoods. Looks like you enjoyed yourself, nice shots.
Great video Mike, thanks. Looks like an amazing trip.
glad you enjoyed this :)
What an outstanding video. Loved every minute. You caught some great shots too.
Leica MP - my absolute dream camera. Got mine about 6 months ago and it's glued to my neck ever since. Great photos, great video, great vibes Mike 💯. I am a big fan of your channel! Cheers from Germany
I almost got one from Germany.. Logistics and the seller NOT knowing if there would be any duties due got me nervous. I was able to find one here in the states.
Incredible shots as always! I moved to NY about 3 years ago and it's a dream to just spend the day walking around and photographing, sometimes I feel like I take it for granted. Your shots re-energized me to get out again as soon as possible.
I was born and live in Manhattan in New York City so I am super excited to see what you would shoot here!!!!
What a place to be born! Hope you like the video/pictures :)
@@MikeChudley thanks for replying! I really did love this video and all the photos you took, it really captured the life of ordinary people in New York everyday and the beauty of it! :)
Pure photographer's paradise 😊❤❤❤ i would love to something like this in London!22
i love to visit new york that city is amazing when you are photographer
Great video man! I love New York I’ve been there twice and really wanting to visit again.
Thanks! Love to hear it, we're all ready talking about our return trip haha
@@MikeChudley you’re welcome!, awesome man! Make some more videos while you’re there the next time you go.
New York is always a fun time.
Great video Mike, would love a photography trip to NYC myself one day. That last looked particularly special too 👍
Great stuff, seeing NYC through travelers lens makes me appreciate it more - when you live somewhere you start to take it for-granted.
I gotta say though, while you guys were experiencing the absolute worst humid heatwave of the northeast summer, I was in London for the first time, enjoying absolutely incredible weather, 20 celsius and sun :D ... (and the city of course, what a treat).
Great video Mike - I'll dig a little deeper on your site!
Love to hear it, thank you!
Amazing photos. You are such an inspiration
very kind of you!
What a dream! I had a day in Manhattan with a friend in March photographing and it’s as magical !
It was very inspring video. I am going to NYC at 17th Aug for one week. It was my biggest dream of my life :) I also love photography and video and It will be much fun taking some pictures in NYC. Amazing video man, Love it!
I think you will love it! The place has a special type of energy, enjoy it :)
NYC is still a big box in my list that remains unticked! Hopefully one day! Until then I will keep watching great photo trips like this one
Love it! Awazing shots and really enjoyed this long format video.
Great video! Next time you’re in town I’m down to do a photo walk with you
I'm just glad you made it out there with your life.
Glad you enjoyed your trip! I ran into you randomly on Broadway in Soho when you were with your crew and snapped your portrait!
Easily one of my favourite videos of yours! Incredible trip and photos, stoked to have my copy of the zine - would have been sweet if they were numbered.
Mike, curious to know if you use zone focussing or if you focus every photo? Appreciate your work!
Thanks for ordering the zine, means a lot.
I mostly focus for every photo but occasionally zone focus when the light is good and consistent. It just depends, a mix of both really.
@@MikeChudley right on man. That’s impressive and makes me appreciate your work that much more.
Lunch time and found Mike's 35 mins video. What a day.
absolute mega vid!! enjoyed every minute
I watch all of your videos.
That one is up amongst the best.
Honestly, I have a bunch of NY Photographer books by the greats.
Some of those shots are up there with Meyorowitz and co.
You really captured the feel and vibe I think.
Looks like you enjoyed it too!
Insane steps though lol.
Wow, thank you!
Nyc is an insane experience, glad you enjoyed!
Nice to see you using film!
glad you enjoyed our little town. check out more of the other boroughs next time. cheers.
I was going to say the same.
Any suggestions? Going there again this winter.Done Christmas in NYC so trying February.Cheers.
@@martinpickard5818 some obvious choices are brooklyn (dumbo, bushwick, downtown promenade area, prospect park), queens (LIC, flushing, astoria) but also don't overlook jersey city (great skyline views). most of these place are 15-20 mins away from manhattan on the train.
@@biking-places many thanks….what weather can we expect early February ?
@@martinpickard5818 pretty bleak. a few degrees above freezing during the day. snow has been rare lately but not impossible. sunset around 5pm
Love this.
This first 3 day 7 photos were 🔥👏🏻
Thank you for this video.
I was born & raised in NewYork City. I no longer live there. Will return the middle of September.
NYC in the summer. Hot and muggy. Sometimes you can cut the humidity with a knife. Very expensive all the time.
I try to avoid B&H and usually fail. An adult toy store. I rarely leave without buying something.
Amazing that the Staten Island ferry doesn’t list when the tourists take pictures of the Statute of Liberty. Always a way to cool off during the summer.
Did you walk the Bridge? The Brooklyn Bridge. Disappointed you didn’t do more subway photos.
You stated you loved NYC. How does it compare to London?
Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)
Really enjoyed that one dude. Great stuff. Awesome soundtrack too, is it stock music? Has Khruangnin vibes
Great video man, would have been cool to bump into ya. Oh well, glad ye had fun 👊☺️
My favorite is the self portrait at 26:13
Do I see a tiny bit of brassing on the mp? Good to see you working with that camera.
Just got around to watching this Mike - really enjoyable video ! May I ask - in London now quite a few friends who shoot Leica have become somewhat anxious due to thieves moving from targeting expensive watches to targeting Leicas, and they are covering up the red dot or even leaving their Leicas at home. Did you ever feel anxious about walking around with your Leica in NYC? Also any confrontations with folks not happy to have their photo taken?
hey, thanks for watching - a few friends have seen mobile phones get stolen in LDN but never a camera. (not saying it doesn't happen) but I don't worry about it. My camera is insured if worse comes to worse. I've personally never been confronted or felt unsafe at all. Obviously common sense is required. But no, I have zero issues with safety carrying my camera around.
verry good job. nice editing.
Looove this vídeo, you have a new follower!!!
Definitely best video and work to date
31:42 love his photog channel
Nice trip. I think it was your dream to get there and of course to meet Paulie B. Congratulations for this film as well. Hello from Romania. Peace.😉🙏
You really delved into the city! Cool video
yeah fucking yeah
Can't go wrong with NYC
Absolutely.
Try Altra Paradigm 7 or Altra Olympus Via 2 for long days on foot. Bliss
Great video and shots 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Next time you're in nyc I'd love to see your photographic perspective the outer boroughs!
28:58 let’s take some time to appreciate the blue ladder ice cream guy 🤌🤌🤌
Amazing video Chuds
Cheers Dave!
Thanks for another great video!
I met Tony and Chelsea northrup in Washington square park when I was there last I was star struck 😂
muy buen trabajo, me gusto el estilo directo y esencial
Great video! Love NYC perfect for street photography! What lens on M11-P?
Thanks! Summilux 35mm and thypoch simera 28mm :)
La Colombe and Blue Bottle - nice.
Love the vibe and the photos! Great work Mike!
How come Pete didn't come with you?
Great video, saving for later, if I go sometimes to NY. :) Interesting, how you are making video from actual photogrphy, you must still switching video-photo all the time :)
I have question: As You are there for first time (I believe), did you make some plan, where and what you want to shoot? Like map pins, etc.? Thanks!
Gorgeous photos
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Downtown Miami and Miami Beach, and San Francisco if you ever come back to the states. Miami and Miami beach you can do in 2-3 days. San Fran should have a few days. Trust me!
I’ve always been too scared to vocalise my thoughts about the Katz pastrami sandwich because of how many people hype it up. But I agree, it was just OKAY, it was kind of dry and needed a sauce of some kind.
At first I was so excited to try it seeing how many people have suggested it and the line for it was insane. Glad I’m not the only one 😅
Really enjoyed the video - as close as I'd want to be to NY. I just can't imagine why anyone wants to shoot film in 2024 - so much hassle and expense. Digital all the way - and that's from over 50 years in photography and film for maybe 35 because I had no choice. Anyway however you get them the pictures were great. 👍
street photographers paradise
now i really need to see gauthier's 4 photos of the pigeons
nobody has seen it, I'm starting to think it been kept a secret haha
I Loveeeee this video!🤯🤯🤯😻
I tried the M7 and M6 but the MP is definitely soooo beautiful.😅
Great. Idea….I feel like I was ther!
im going in October to ny and im so excited because im been doing street photography for.a while, which film do you recommend me for ny ?
Now Paulie needs to do a London episode with you.
What a great video! Does anyone know what the BTS cam he uses while talking to the camera? Osmo pocket? Mirrorless?
Hey, thanks for watching - yeah it was the DJI pocket 3 and a little bit of my phone.
How ON and Hoka took over Nike as the go too shoe for runners and even people walking is CRAZY!! Nike really blew it
Ending a day with 400 raw photos is crazy.. I was talking thousands a day there and had to spend hours every night after shooting to consolidate it down lol
superhero dog? Nah 4:41 is the money.
Fantastic video and stills as always Mike! What camera was used for most of your video? Order No 1401 - Please ensure the customs declaration says 0% VAT / Magazine / documents. Thanks 😀
Definitely feels like there could be a dogs of New York in the make
Nice. Wish I could afford a Leica.
What do you use to record your steps?
Thanks
Des
Just the health app. Super super accurate stuff 😂
