Nick is easily my favorite photographer on RUclips. While I have no desire to get into medium format film photography, I absolutely love seeing how he goes about finding a subject and the process that goes into capturing an image. His photo of the water station in Gila Bend, AZ, is an example of taking something mundane and making it extraordinary. I mention that one in particular since I live in Arizona and had driven by that exact small structure many times, never once thinking it could be a great photo subject. That's the kind of inspiration I love.
Great interview. I had the pleasure of meeting Nick Carver about a year ago in CA at his solo exhibit in San Clemente. Super nice guy, and yes, he has an artistic focus and a well-honed process, both for taking stunning images, and the scanning and processing. I highly recommend watching his "3 Nights in Arizona," which was a road trip-filled with success, disappointments, and challenges. And the resulting Zine was worth the wait.
Thank you for this interview, Alex. I've been a fan and follower of Nick for some time and really enjoy, not just his images, but he's genuinely a fun guy to listen to. Nick has a way of turning trash into gold. He shoots things that I have never had an interest in but he demonstrates possibilities in just about everything. His train car image - The Hopper is a one of his best. Thanks again.
Hi Alex, I was happy to watch the interview with Nick Carver. Another great photographer who I didn't know. Always seeing the work of other photographers on your channel. Thanks 😊
Great interview! When Nick talks about buildings that show history of life, someone should point him to the book "How Buildings Learn: What Happens After They're Built " by Stewart Brand.
I’m familiar with him and have watched a number of his videos. Though I’m happy in the digital photography world, I still relate to the way he sees subjects and composes them.
I love architectural photography, just as the uncle of my ex-wife loved landscape photography. I think that shows in the pictures and reveals part of the personality of the subjects too.
I to have multiple photographic interests. urban landscapes, buildings, evriomental portraits, commercial, timelapse, drone. Time and access is constantly in demand. I also have a liking of scanning photo media.This is not even counting my curiosity for visual design skills.
The lyrics go on to talk about the pleasures of photography, music, and travel, suggesting that these activities can offer an escape from the mundanity and negativity of everyday life. At its core, “Kodachrome” is a song about finding joy and meaning in life’s small moments. The song is optimistic and hopeful, suggesting that even in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, there is still beauty to be found.
I love working in large and medium format film. I find the whole process enjoyable. I don't get that type of joy with digital formats. I guess that's because I shot film for the first 25 years of my career and only started using digital formats about 15 years ago.
The human element i can't stand and completely walk away from a scene that has them are powerlines, i absolutely detest having them in 1 of my images 😂
$19 a month to see the rest of this interview? How much cash is Nick getting? Did he know you were paywallinng the interview? I’ve been a sub since about 7000. Not anymore. Grubby.

Nick Carver’s legacy far into the future will be spoken about in the same manner as those of modern 20th century photography greats ☝️
Alex, you're a great interviewer. Those questions you came up with were perfect. We need more interviews with amazing photographers sir.
Nick Carver is the G.O.A.T. Love his work.

Superb video Alex. Nick is quite a catch. He is so different and watchable. Great questions Alex. Thanks to both of you for sharing. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
8:50 Both of you are head-on. Photography for me is a solo endeavor which is sacred. Thanks Alex and Nick for such an inspiring video!
Thank you Alex for posting this conversation. Nick has a laid-back, confident style that makes it easy to listen to, and learn from what he says.

Nick is an inspiration of mine. His work is exceptional and seeing them on screen doesn’t do them justice.

Good combo of two of the better online photography educators! Nice conversation and dive in to Nick’s work!

Very enjoyable and interesting video
Nick Carver is one of the best photographers around. His dedication to excellence comes through in his videos. Thanks to TPE for this insight.
Awesomeness!
nice! I think you both should check many great Urbex photographers, abandoned buildings/industry with some decay are just gold mine for good shots

I’ve really liked Nick Carver for several years.

This is the type of crossover i live for 🤩
9:16 I’ve been to that village inn a few times lol it’s in southlands Colorado
You are very interesting, and I want to see more of your photography I have my problems but that don't stop me! I want to be something I may never be

Another great video; I really enjoy the interviews with accomplished photographers! Oh, I think you have spelt extraordinaire wrong? C.
3:16 is that the cave from netflix series ‘Kaos’?
I don't get the photos but the interview is really nice on both ends. Thank you
Want more? Head over to the Down South Photo Show here on the Tubes and catch up with our hour long interview :)
Ghosts of human existence, past or present. I to know that experience of being in a moment of poetry in time. Even if only temporal.
You gotta mention his “Formerly Taco Bell” project!
The human element i can't stand and completely walk away from a scene that has them are powerlines, i absolutely detest having them in 1 of my images 😂
Did he send you a bottle of bourbon it’s my favorite show that Nick does he sits there talking photography and drinking
I know what he means, but is "sloppy" a word one should be using for one's commercial work?
Watch Nick’s X pro 3 video it’s the best. Not for the feint of heart.
