What happens when a photographer sells his successful agency to chase the stories he truly cares about? Today, we welcome Alain Schroeder, a Belgian visual storyteller whose mantlepiece is overflowing with awards, including multiple awards in World Press Photo, Picture of the Year International, Siena Awards, Travel Photographer of the Year, Visa pour l’Image, Lensculture, Smithsonian magazine awards, Nikon Press Photo Awards, and so many more, apart from countless international exhibitions. This is the essential episode for every photographer looking to validate the long-term pursuit of a serious, meaningful documentary career.
Alain walks us through his 40 years amazing career arc, starting with the early days, getting by accident in sports photography, running around on all major tennis fields, that led him to shoot over 500 magazine covers, and the need to start his own successful picture agency. He opens up about the moment he felt he had to sell his shares, years later, to devote himself entirely to deep, humanistic projects around the globe, with maybe his natural Belgian surrealist streak subtly influencing everything he shoots.
