Valérie picked Neil Kramer from the US as the PPN inspirational photographer of the month. Neil has inspired Valérie with his photo series that is documenting his life with his ex-wife and 86-years-old mother inside his two-bedroom apartment during the lockdown. Neil is a great example of how a photographer can find inspiration and a photo project even in the most limiting circumstances. Neil and his photo series have been covered by international media outlets, such as NBC’s The Today Show, The Washington Post, Cosmopolitan Japan, and more. You can check out Neil’s work on Instagram: @neilochka https://www.instagram.com/neilochka/
In the main part of the show, Valérie and Marco discuss ideas on how to find inspiration and approach photo assignments and projects.
