10FPS A Photojournalism Podcast for Everyone

Mickey Osterreicher of NPPA Discusses Photojournalism in the Modern Era: Legal Rights, AI Challenges, and How to Protect Your Work The 10 Frames Per Second podcast episode featuring Mickey Osterreicher, General Counsel for the National Press Photographers Association (NPPA), uncovers the toughest challenges facing today’s visual journalists: Shrinking newsrooms & the rise of freelancers Legal battles over copyright, AI‑generated images, and fair use Police confrontations, arrests, and deportations of journalists The vital role of the NPPA in advocacy and education If you’re a photojournalist, visual storyteller, or anyone who relies on images to inform the public, the insights from this episode are essential reading. A past guest on 10FPS (Episode 20) Mickey’s career arc illustrates how photojournalism and law intersect: Phase Highlights Early Years Started with a 35 mm camera in college, photo‑edited the school newspaper, then worked for the Buffalo Courier‑Express (10 years). TV Transition Moved to WKBW‑TV, covered sports, and realized visual storytelling mattered more than column space. Law School Inspired by covering the Attica prison uprising and escorting attorneys William Kunstler & Ramsey Clark, he enrolled in law school while still working nights at the TV station. NPPA Legal Counsel Joined the NPPA in the early 1970s, later became its volunteer legal counsel, handling copyright, First Amendment, and police‑training issues. Key takeaway: A solid legal background can turn a photojournalist into an advocate for the entire visual‑journalism community. The State of the NPPA Why the NPPA Is Still Critical Founded 1946 – the “voice of visual journalists.” Membership shift: From staff photographers at newspapers/TV to freelancers & independent contractors. Financial pressure: Dues are modest, but staff salaries have been cut; board members now perform many staff functions pro‑bono. Advocacy priorities: Protect First Amendment rights. Provide legal training for journalists and law‑enforcement agencies. Fight AI‑related copyright infringement. NPPA’s Current Initiatives Legal hotline – direct access to counsel for members. First‑Amendment training – delivered to police departments nationwide (e.g., Minnesota, Chicago). Copyright small‑claims court – a low‑cost venue for photographers to enforce their rights. Writing with Light (WwL) Coalition – developing standards for image provenance and authenticity. First Amendment & Police Encounters: What Every Visual Journalist Should Know 1. Know Your Rights Public spaces: You have the right to photograph and record, subject only to reasonable time, place, and manner restrictions. “Indicia” of journalist status: Press credentials, professional gear, and a clear “press” identifier help officers recognize you as a journalist. 2. Prepare Before You Go Contact local police ahead of time to introduce yourself. Work in pairs or a small team—the “buddy system” improves safety and documentation. Carry a written list of emergency contacts (phone numbers inked on your arm or stored offline). 3. If You’re Detained Step Action Stay calm Do not resist; comply with lawful orders. Identify yourself Show press credentials, explain you’re exercising First Amendment rights. Document the encounter Keep an audio/video record if safe to do so. Call the NP hotline (or the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press at 800‑336‑4243) as soon as possible. Notify a trusted contact (family, lawyer, editor). Ask for a copy of the arrest report and any charges filed. AI & Generative Images: The New Copyright Battlefield Why AI Threatens Photojournalism AI‑generated images can be indistinguishable from reality (e.g., deepfakes, synthetic disasters). Massive ingestion of photographers’ work to train AI models, often without permission or compensation. Legal Landscape (U.S. Focus) Copyright registration is required before you can sue for infringement. Statutory damages: Up to $150,000 per image for willful infringement (as illustrated by the Daniel Morrel case). Fair‑use defense is fact‑intensive; courts evaluate purpose, nature, amount used, and market effect. Practical AI Safeguards Register every image you intend to license (or that has high news value). Add a visible watermark or embed metadata indicating ownership. Use tools from Adobe’s Content Authenticity Initiative (CAI) to embed provenance data. Monitor platforms for unauthorized use; send a cease‑and‑desist using NPPA’s model letters (available on their website). Practical Steps to Safeguard Your Images {#practical-steps-to-safeguard-your-images} Register Your Work File a registration with the U.S. Copyright Office within 90 days of first publication to get retroactive protection. Maintain a Documentation Log Date, location, equipment, and a brief description for each shoot. Store original RAW files in an offline, encrypted backup. Use Model Release & License Agreements Clearly outline permitted uses, fee structures, and attribution requirements. Leverage NPPA Resources Model cease‑and‑desist letters – copy, personalize, and send. Small‑claims court filing kit – for disputes under $10 k, no attorney needed. Educate Your Audience Publish a short note on your site about image authenticity (e.g., “This photo was captured on location with a Sony A7R IV; not AI‑generated”).

The Early Days of Photography: Insights from Anika Burgess Discover the fascinating stories behind early photography, from Anna Atkins’ cyanotypes to the Daguerre‑Talbot rivalry, women’s hidden studios, and the first surveillance photos of suffragettes—highlights from Anika Burgess’ interview on the “10 Frames Per Second” podcast.  The “10 Frames Per Second” podcast is a go‑to resource for anyone interested in photojournalism history, yet this particular episode dives deep into the origins of photography itself. If you’re a photographer, educator, historian, or simply a curious visual storyteller, the episode offers insights and details from technical to social, on the rise of photography Meet Anika Burgess – Photo Historian & Author Title: Photo editor, writer, and author of Flashes of Brilliance: The Genius of Early Photography and How It Transformed Art, Science, and History (W.W. Norton). Background: History & Law degrees, early career at Penguin Books (Modern Classics), later freelance photo‑researcher. Passion: Uncovering hidden stories—especially of women, scientists, and “oddball” characters—in the birth of photography. From Law School to Photo Editing Anika’s journey is a reminder that career pivots can lead to groundbreaking work: Law → Photo Editing: A short course in photo research opened the door to a role at Penguin’s Modern Classics series. On‑the‑Job Learning: She describes freelance work as an “accelerated masterclass” in assigning, commissioning, and archival research. Teaching Lens: As a photo‑history instructor, Anika emphasizes the value of primary sources—old photo journals, newspapers, and diaries. Pioneers of Early Photography Anna Atkins & the First Photo Book Who: English botanist & cyanotype pioneer. Milestone: Created Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions (1843), the first photographic book—and made by a woman. Rediscovery: Mis‑attributed as “AA” until the 1970s when Larry Scharf revived her story. Women Photographers in the 1840s‑1850s Studio Advertisements: Journals show Miss Wigley and others openly marketing portrait studios. Color Tinting: Una Howard promoted women’s employment in hand‑tinting photographs, even establishing a school for the craft. Editorial Debates: Early photo‑journals featured heated arguments about photography’s purpose—art vs. science—with women actively contributing. Surprising Finds in the Archives Skin & Nail Prints: Some 19th‑century journals reported people printing photographs onto their own skin or fingernails. Psychic Photography: Experiments aimed to capture thoughts, dreams, or “effluvia”—the supposed visual aura of a soul. X‑Ray Curiosities: Early images of snakes, crayfish, and snowflakes (thanks to Wilson Bentley) showed how photography became a tool for scientific discovery. Early Photography: The Daguerre vs. Talbot Rivalry Aspect Louis Daguerre William Henry Fox Talbot Process Daguerreotype (metal‑silver plate) Calotype (paper negative → positive) Business Model Government‑funded French pension → free public release Aggressive patent enforcement, licensing fees Impact Dominated the first decade, especially in France and England Laid groundwork for modern negative/positive workflow, but hindered by patents Anika notes that Talbot’s patents slowed adoption, while Daguerre’s state‑backed release accelerated his method’s popularity—an early example of how capitalism shapes technology diffusion. Early Photography Chemical Hazards & “You‑Tube‑Free” Learning Deadly Substances: Cyanide, mercury, and strong acids were common in darkrooms. No Antidotes: For cyanide, there was no effective remedy, underscoring the danger. Community Knowledge: Early photo clubs circulated “antidote tables”—precautions rather than cures. “There were no textbooks, no YouTube tutorials—just trial, error, and sometimes tragedy.” – Anika Science Meets Art: X‑Rays, Snowflakes & Psychic Photography X‑Ray Explorations (1890s): Photographs of snakes and crayfish revealed anatomy unseen by the naked eye. Wilson Bentley (Vermont): Captured over 5,000 snowflake images using a microscope—blending meteorology and artistry. Effluvia Photography: Early attempts to photograph the “spirit” of a person, predating modern AI‑generated ethereality. Early Surveillance: The Suffragette Photo‑Ops Arthur Barrett’s Top‑Hat Camera (1908): Secretly photographed suffragists inside a London courtroom. He even coughed to mask the shutter sound. Government Commission: The British Home Office later hired Barrett to take long‑lens photographs of suffragists in Holloway Prison. Legacy: This marks one of the first documented uses of photography for covert surveillance—a precursor to today’s CCTV debates. Lessons for Modern Photojournalists Transparency Matters: Early manipulators like Oskar Rieslander openly disclosed composite techniques—mirroring today’s call for AI‑generated image labeling. Innovation Stems from Limits: Nadar’s underground catacomb portraits show how technical constraints spark creative solutions. Community Sharing Wins: Photo clubs of the 19th century were the original knowledge‑exchange platforms—modern equivalents are online forums, workshops, and open‑source libraries. What’s Next for Anika? After a seven‑year labor of love, Anika hints at a potential sequel covering 1910‑present—a period that includes modernist photography, wartime photojournalism, and the digital revolution. She’s also considering shorter books focused on women pioneers and photographic chemistry. Quick Takeaways Anna Atkins wrote the first photographic book, and women have been key players since the 1840s. Daguerre’s free release vs. Talbot’s patents illustrates how policy shapes tech adoption. Early photographers faced real chemical dangers—no antidotes for cyanide, mercury, or acids. Surveillance photography began with suffragist courtroom shots, foreshadowing modern privacy concerns. Transparency in image manipulation is a historic constant, now relevant in the age of AI. Frequently Asked Questions Question Answer Where can I find Anna Atkins’ cyanotype collection? The New York Public Library hosts a fully digitized archive online. Is the “top‑hat camera” video still available? Yes—search “suffragist reunion British Pathé” on YouTube. What was the first photo‑journalistic use of a hidden camera? Arthur Barrett’s 1908 courtroom photos of suffragists. How did early photographers tint images? Women like Una Howard hand‑colored prints using water‑based pigments; later, labs introduced mechanical tinting. Can I listen to the full podcast episode? New episodes drop every Tuesday on 10fps.net and all major podcast platforms. Final Thoughts Anika Burgess’ conversation on “10 Frames Per Second” proves that the early history of photography is far from a static timeline—it’s a vibrant tapestry woven by inventors, women entrepreneurs, scientists, and activists. Understanding this past not only enriches our appreciation of current visual culture but also equips today’s photojournalists with perspective on ethics, innovation, and the ever‑present tension between art and science.

Trembling Earth: Inside David Walter Banks’ Transcendental Journey Through the Okefenokee Swamp *Discover the story behind the spectacular new photography book, the techniques that made it possible, and why the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge matters more than ever.* — Who Is David Walter Banks? Atlanta‑based photographer with a 20‑year career spanning portraiture, documentary, and editorial work. Clients include Time, Apple, The New York Times, National Geographic, Rolling Stone, Smithsonian, Toyota, more. Co‑founder of Luceo Images (a photo agency that later evolved into a production company). Partner and collaborator Kendrick Brinson — the duo runs the studio Brinson Banks. Former newspaper photographer at the Athens Banner‑Herald and Chattanooga Times‑Free Press, where he honed rapid‑turnaround, problem‑solving skills. “Working as a staff photographer at a newspaper is the ultimate training ground for documentary and portrait work. You learn to shoot fast, adapt to any light, and tell a story on the spot.” – David Walter Banks — From Newspaper Pixels to Fine‑Art Pages | Early Career | Skills Gained | Student newspaper (U‑Georgia) | Deadline discipline, storytelling basics Internship at Chattanooga Times‑Free Press | Real‑world newsroom workflow Full‑time at Athens Banner‑Herald | Multi‑assignment days, diverse lighting | Co‑founded Luceo Images | Business acumen, collaborative network | A decade in California | Advertising expertise, personal projects | These experiences gave Banks a “no‑quit” mindset that later powered the exhaustive field work for Trembling Earth. — The Birth of Trembling Earth Subtitle: A Transcendental Trip Through the Okefenokee Publisher: The Bitter Southerner (October 2025 release) Concept: Capture the unquantifiable spiritual presence of the Okefenokee Swamp without relying on post‑production effects. Inspiration: A childhood memory of the swamp and his father‑in‑law’s books about the region sparked the “cobweby” urge to return. “I went back to the swamp not just to photograph it, but to feel it, to let the place guide me.” – Banks — Conceptual In‑Camera Techniques Banks insisted on creating the image in the camera, using light, movement, and long exposures rather than Photoshop. Below are his favorite methods: Gel‑lit Flash & Laser Pointers: Paint light onto cypress trees, water surfaces, and fog. Multiple Exposures on a Tripod: Layer ghostly silhouettes and star trails in a single frame. Night‑time Paddling: Dressed in black, he moved through the swamp, positioning handheld lights to “paint” the scene. Mixing Light Sources: Profoto strobes for the foreground, high‑powered flashlights for distant foliage. Medium Format Digital → Canon DSLR: Switched from MF to DSLR for speed; the digital workflow allowed thousands of trial shots per night. Key Insight: Accidental “mistakes” (e.g., unexpected light flares) became the most memorable images, proving that experimentation beats perfection. — The Conservation Angle: Saving the Okefenokee Ecological Significance: Largest intact freshwater ecosystem in the U.S., home to endangered species. Threat: A proposed titanium‑dioxide mine that could have collapsed the swamp’s water table and triggered a catastrophic peat fire. Outcome: A $60 million land purchase by a conservation fund protected ~8,000 acres; mining plans halted. Banks used his photography to raise awareness: 1. Feature in The Bitter Southerner– article and images published. 2. Collaboration with Nature Conservancy Magazine – a major spread highlighting the threat. 3. World Heritage Bid Submission – contributed images to support UNESCO consideration. “When people see a place through a surreal, visual story, they stop scrolling, they care, and they act.” – Banks — The Team Behind the Book Editor & Designer: Dave Whitling (photo editor at The Bitter Southerner). Cover Artist: Danielle DeStefano Miller – debossed, hand‑drawn cover art. Poet Contributors: Jay Drew Lanham & Aimee Nezhukumatathil – original poems woven throughout. Critique Circle: Partner Kendrick Brinson, friend Matt Eich, and John Francis Peters provided editing feedback. Mentors: Documentary veterans Jim Estrin and Ed Kashi (Anderson Ranch workshop). This collaborative network mirrors the “creative support system” Banks praised throughout his career. — What Readers Will Find Inside 90 curated photographs (out of tens of thousands shot over 69 nights and 540 miles of paddling). Long‑exposure nightscapes that feel otherworldly yet authentic. Land‑acknowledgment by Muscogee Creek Nation Principal Chief James Floyd. Narrative that blend personal reflection, ecological data, and historic context. Poetic interludes that echo the swamp’s mystique. The book is designed as a tangible artifact— a coffee‑table piece meant to outlive its creator and spark conversation in homes, libraries, and community centers. — How to Get Your Copy of Trembling Earth Hardcover (deboned, debossed cover) | Pre‑order now via The Bitter Southerner website | Ships Oct 6, 2025 | eBook (PDF) | Immediate download after pre‑order | Available now | Limited‑edition prints | Occasionally offered through Brinson Banks studio | Stay tuned to the studio newsletter | — Key Takeaways for Photographers & Storytellers Embrace the newsroom mindset: Rapid problem‑solving and adaptability are priceless in field work.

Photojournalism on the Front Lines: Lessons from Hong Kong, January 6, and the Quest for Ethical Storytelling Keywords: photojournalism, covering protests, Hong Kong protests, January 6 Capitol riot, trauma‑informed journalism, photojournalism ethics, mental health for journalists, resilience, LENA Grant, photojournalism career advice 📚 Introduction The latest episode of “10 Frames Per Second” (a podcast by photojournalists for everyone) dives deep into the realities of covering some of the most intense protests of the last decade. Host Leah Millis shares first‑hand accounts from Hong Kong’s 2019 protests to the chaotic January 6 Capitol attack, and discusses how photojournalists can balance powerful storytelling with ethical responsibility and personal wellbeing. If you’re a photographer, reporter, media student, or anyone curious about the human side of conflict coverage, this post distills the episode’s key take‑aways into an easy‑to‑read guide—complete with actionable tips, SEO‑friendly headlines, and a roadmap for a resilient, trauma‑informed career in photojournalism. 🔎 Why This Topic Matters for SEO High‑search volume keywords: “photojournalism ethics,” “covering protests,” “January 6 photojournalist,” “trauma‑informed journalism,” “photojournalism grants.” Audience intent: Students looking for career advice, professionals seeking mental‑health resources, editors researching ethical guidelines, grant‑seekers. Long‑tail relevance: Combining protest coverage with mental‑health tips captures niche queries that competitors often overlook. 🎥 Podcast Snapshot – What Was Discussed? Segment Main Points Hong Kong protests • Creative use of bricks & barricades • Highly organized “teams” • Community‑driven, non‑militaristic tactics January 6 Capitol riot • Open planning in public chats • Weapons talks (e.g., bear‑spray alternatives) • Journalists targeted as “enemies” Ethics & trauma • Importance of trauma‑informed journalism • Balancing “shock value” with survivor dignity • Role of contests & AI concerns Resilience & mental health • Necessity of professional therapy & community support • “Resilience” as a non‑negotiable skill • Self‑care = food + fitness + gear Grant opportunity • LENA Grant (photojournalism + health focus) awarded to Leah for a climate‑change mental‑health project Advice for students • Expect exposure to trauma • Build a support structure early • Embrace humility, patience, and ethical rigor 🧱 Lessons from Hong Kong: Creativity Under Pressure Improvised barricades – Protesters turned ordinary bricks into roadblocks, slowing police vehicles. Team organization – Dedicated squads handled specific tasks (e.g., brick placement, medical aid). Community trust – Demonstrators welcomed photojournalists, seeing them as allies rather than adversaries. Takeaway for photojournalists: When covering protests, observe the tactics as part of the story. Documenting ingenuity can humanize movements and provide context beyond the headline. ⚡ Inside the January 6 Capitol Riot Open‑source planning: Participants discussed logistics, weapons, and timelines in public forums (e.g., Parler). Journalist as target: President‑aligned rhetoric labeled media as “enemies,” prompting direct threats. Ebb‑and‑flow of violence: The event featured intense flashpoints followed by calmer moments—making selective footage easy to misrepresent. SEO hook: “January 6 photojournalist safety” is a frequently searched phrase; this section answers that query with concrete observations. 📸 Photojournalism Ethics in High‑Risk Situations The Ethical Dilemmas Weaponization of images: Capturing graphic violence can fuel sensationalism. Consent & trauma: Photographing survivors may re‑trigger PTSD. Contests & AI: Awards can incentivize risky behavior; AI manipulation threatens credibility. Best‑Practice Checklist ✅ Obtain informed consent whenever feasible. ✅ Blur faces or use obfuscation for vulnerable subjects. ✅ Avoid glorifying violence; focus on context and aftermath. ✅ Declare any editing; maintain transparency for integrity. ✅ Reject AI‑generated images unless disclosure is crystal‑clear. 🛡️ Trauma‑Informed Journalism: A Primer Definition: Reporting that recognises the impact of trauma on both subjects and journalists, adapting the storytelling process to minimise harm. Core Principles Principle Practical Application Safety Use protective gear (vests, helmets) and assess site risks before entering. Trustworthiness Explain your intent, let subjects pause or stop the interview. Choice Offer subjects control over how their story & images are used. Collaboration Involve survivors in the narrative design when possible. Empowerment Highlight resilience, not just victimhood. Quick Tips for Journalists Pre‑interview briefing: Outline questions, possible triggers, and duration. Post‑shoot debrief: Offer resources (counselling hotlines, peer support). Self‑care routine: Daily short‑breaks, grounding exercises, and scheduled therapy. 💪 Building Resilience: Mental‑Health Strategies for Photojournalists Professional Support – Regular therapy (individual or group) is as essential as a camera battery. Community Networks – Join photojournalist guilds, online forums, or local press clubs. Physical Wellness – Exercise, balanced nutrition, and adequate sleep boost emotional regulation. Boundaries – Set work limits; “off‑hours” must be truly offline. Reflection Journals – Document experiences, feelings, and coping mechanisms after each assignment. Bullet‑point cheat sheet: ✅ Schedule a 30‑minute weekly therapist session. ✅ Participate in a monthly peer‑support meetup. ✅ Keep a “stress‑trigger” log to spot patterns. 🎓 Advice for Aspiring Photojournalists Accept trauma as part of the job – You’ll cover distressing events; prepare mentally. Develop resilience early – Invest in therapy and supportive friendships before your first conflict shoot. Prioritise ethics over accolades – Contests can be useful, but never at the expense of human dignity. Stay adaptable – Technology evolves (AI, drones); keep learning while upholding core values. SEO‑rich tagline: “How to start a career in photojournalism with mental‑health safeguards.” 🌍 Funding Opportunities: The LENA Grant Leah Millis received the LENA Grant from the World Association of Press Photojournalists (WAPOW) to explore the psychological impacts of climate change. Eligibility: Photojournalists working on health‑related projects in the Americas. What it covers: Travel, equipment, staffing, and research costs. Why it matters: Provides financial breathing room to pursue ethically complex, long‑term stories. Tip: When applying, emphasize trauma‑informed methodology and community collaboration—the grant reviewers love demonstrable ethical frameworks. 📚 Key Takeaways Creative protest tactics (e.g., Hong Kong brick barricades) offer storytelling angles beyond slogans. January 6 illustrates how open planning and media hostility can merge into a dangerous environment for journalists. Ethics, trauma‑informed practices, and resilience are non‑negotiable pillars for modern photojournalists. Grants like the LENA enable deep, responsible coverage of mental‑health and climate‑change topics.

Judy Walgren, The Future of Photojournalism: Ethics, Care, and Community Insights from Judy Walgren’s interview on the “10 Frames Per Second” podcast 🎙️ About the Podcast Episode Show: 10 Frames Per Second – a podcast about photojournalism by photojournalists, for everyone. Hosts: Joe Giordano & Molly Roberts. Guest: Judy Walgren, Pulitzer‑prize winning photojournalist, professor at Foothill College, co‑author of Critical Photojournalism: Contemporary Ethics and Practices (with Tara Pixley). Release: Tuesday (new episodes drop every Tuesday on 10fps.net or any major podcast platform). 🌟 Who Is Judy Walgren? Career Highlights 14 years at the Dallas Morning News covering East Africa, India, and more. Director of Photography at the San Francisco Chronicle. Pulitzer Prize (team) for coverage of violent human‑rights abuses against women. Academic Role Full‑time faculty in the photography department at Foothill College, Los Altos, CA. Mentors students in community‑college settings, emphasizing ethical storytelling and self‑care. 🔍 Core Themes From the Conversation 1. Ethical Storytelling Is Not a Myth – It’s a Practice Objectivity Is a Myth – Judy argues that every photographer brings lived experience to a story; true objectivity is impossible. Fairness & Accuracy – She focuses on fairness (respectful representation) and accuracy (truthful context) rather than a hollow claim of objectivity. Collaborative Portraiture – Working with subjects (e.g., survivors of the Larry Nassar scandal) to co‑create images, not just “shoot‑and‑run.” 2. The “Extraction” Model vs. Relationship‑Based Journalism Extraction Model Relationship Model Fast, flash‑heavy, profit‑driven Slow, consent‑first, community‑centered Prioritizes clicks & ads Prioritizes people’s dignity Example: Direct flash in immigration courtrooms Example: Years‑long immersion with a family before photographing courtroom moments 3. Gender & Racial Bias in the Field Early career: Told she couldn’t carry heavy gear because she was a woman → Interrupted by supportive mentors (Dennis Darling). Ongoing: Confronting sexism, bullying, and the “male‑editor” gatekeeping that still exists in many newsrooms. 4. Mental Health & Self‑Care Are Essential Trauma: Covering wars in Somalia, genocide, and systemic abuse left deep emotional scars. Self‑Care Practices Pre‑assignment checklists (gear, safety, mental‑health prep). “DigiSec” – digital security to protect against doxxing. Yoga, meditation, and community support (e.g., Women Photojournalists of Washington). 5. The Rise of Gen Z Empathy Gen Z shows higher empathy and a willingness to question entrenched practices. Students demand authenticity, fairness, and ethical frameworks—pressuring the industry to evolve. 6. The Business Crisis in Photojournalism Corporate commodification → “Extraction” of stories for profit. Non‑profit & community models proposed as a sustainable alternative. Need for transparent licensing, copyright awareness, and fair compensation for creators. 📘 The Book: Critical Photojournalism Authors: Judy Walgren & Tara Pixley (MFA + PhD in Journalism). Key Sections Ethical foundations (fairness, accuracy, care). Technical & business skills (copyright, licensing). Mental‑health & safety strategies. Case studies & learning prompts. Companion Site: criticalphotojournalism.com – free resources, interview archives, and lesson‑plan templates. 🛠️ Practical Takeaways for Photojournalists & Educators For Photojournalists Ask for Consent – Even in public spaces, a simple “May I photograph you?” can transform power dynamics. Avoid Direct Flash in Sensitive Settings – Use natural light or soft diffusers; prioritize subjects’ comfort. Document Your Process – Keep a journal of ethical decisions; it can protect you and your subjects later. For Educators Integrate Ethics Early – Use the book’s learning prompts in freshman courses. Create Collaborative Projects – Partner students with community organizations for real‑world practice. Teach Digital Security – Include DigiSec basics (VPN, two‑factor authentication, safe file storage). For Newsrooms Re‑think Assignment Timelines – Allow time for relationship building, not just “5‑minute shoots.” Support Mental‑Health Resources – Offer counseling, trauma debriefs, and flexible schedules. Adopt Transparent Licensing – Clearly explain to photographers how images will be used and compensated. 📣 Call to Action Read the Book – Grab Critical Photojournalism for a deep dive into ethical practice.

The Future of Photojournalism: Inside Bill Shapiro’s BluePhoto Collective 📖 Overview In the latest episode of 10 Frames Per Second, veteran photo‑journalist and former Life Magazine editor Bill Shapiro dives deep into the state of modern photography. He reveals why traditional outlets are fading, how AI is reshaping visual storytelling, and introduces his brand‑new platform BluePhoto Collective – a curated marketplace built to connect photographers with buyers while keeping commissions low. If you’re a photographer, a collector, or simply curious about where photojournalism is headed, keep reading. This post breaks down the interview into bite‑size sections, adds actionable takeaways, and is optimized for SEO so you can find it fast on Google. Table of Contents Who Is Bill Shapiro? Why Traditional Photojournalism Is Changing AI: Threat or Tool? Introducing BluePhoto Collective How the Marketplace Works What Types of Photography Are Featured? Pricing, Commissions & Revenue Model Contests, Red Flags & Submission Tips Printing & Authenticity: The Role of Brilliant Graphics Key Takeaways for Photographers SEO‑Friendly Resources & Links 1. Who Is Bill Shapiro? Former editor of Life Magazine – revived the iconic title as a digital‑first platform in 2004. Named one of The 100 Most Influential People in Photography by Blind Magazine. Founder of BluePhoto Collective, a curated online marketplace for photographers of all levels. “When Norm Perlstein from Time Inc. offered me the job, I told him I wasn’t qualified. He asked, ‘Do you trust me as a journalist and manager?’ I said yes, and the rest is history.” – Bill Shapiro 2. Why Traditional Photojournalism Is Changing Past (1970‑1990) Today (2020‑2025) Print‑first – Life and other magazines dominated visual news. Digital‑first – Newspapers, blogs, and social media (Instagram, TikTok). Few outlets – Limited photo editors, long‑form essays common. Fragmented – Many niche sites, but most lack dedicated photo editors. Stable revenue – Subscription & newsstand sales funded large photo essays. Revenue squeeze – Ad‑free models, shrinking print budgets, and AI‑generated content. Bill notes that the internet “ate” newspapers, pushing photojournalists to find new homes for their work. Traditional magazines now publish shorter visual pieces or embed photography within broader articles. 3. AI: Threat or Tool? Concern: AI can generate realistic images that look like historic photojournalism, potentially eroding trust. Quote: “If people start to think every iconic image is AI‑generated, the game is lost.” – Bill Shapiro Opportunity: Transparent AI art (clearly labeled) can expand creative possibilities. Best Practice: Label any AI‑generated work (e.g., “AI‑enhanced”). Maintain original files for provenance. Educate audiences about the difference between documentary photography and AI art. 4. Introducing BluePhoto Collective BluePhoto Collective (bluephoto.co) is a curated online gallery that: Gives photographers a single storefront to sell prints, books, zines, and merch. Leverages social‑media traffic (Instagram, personal sites) to drive visitors. Keeps commissions low (15 % initially, dropping to 12.5 % after $10k in sales). “We’re not a gallery, not an agency, not an Etsy clone – we’re a high‑quality, lean marketplace for authentic photography.” – Bill Shapiro 5. How the Marketplace Works Photographer invitation – Bill and business partner Andy Blau vet each artist. Curated page – Each photographer gets a dedicated page; together they pick the images to showcase. Pricing – Set collaboratively; ranges from $100 to $3,000+. Sales – Buyers purchase directly; Blue Photo handles checkout, shipping, and customer service. Revenue split – 85 % of the sale price goes to the photographer (12.5 % after $10k). Early metrics (first 48 hrs): Avg. on‑site time: 6 minutes per visitor (long for an e‑commerce site). First sales: prints, books, and a handful of zines—proof that demand exists even in a tight market. 6. What Types of Photography Are Featured? Documentary & Photojournalism (e.g., war, humanitarian stories). Travel & Landscape – “Unbelievable landscapes, botanical, sports.” Abstract & Conceptual – “Fine‑art prints with surprising compositions.” Celebrity & Style – “Portraits of cultural icons.” Emerging Genres – Soon: sports, fashion, street. The collection balances big names (Steve McCurry, Ansel Adams) with up‑and‑coming talent (Cliff Wright, Nick Dancer, Dr. Greg Gulbranson). 7. Pricing, Commissions & Revenue Model Item Typical Price Commission Open‑edition fine‑art print $100‑$250 15 % (drops to 12.5 % after $10k) Limited‑edition print $300‑$1,200 Same as above Photo book $50‑$150 15 % Zine / T‑shirt $20‑$50 15 % Why low commissions? Keeps the platform lean – fewer staff, less overhead. Aligns with the mission to give back to the photography community. 8. Contests, Red Flags & Submission Tips Common Red Flags High entry fees for minimal exposure (e.g., $75 for two images, 10,000 entrants). Rights transfer clauses that give the contest organizer perpetual ownership. Lack of clear judging criteria – vague or overly long submission briefs. Bill’s Advice for Photographers Read the fine print – especially who owns the images after the contest. Ask why you’re entering – is it for exposure, feedback, or a prize? Keep series consistent – judges look for quality across all images, not just one standout. Be concise – provide a brief, 4‑5 sentence context (who, what, where, when, why). Quick Checklist ☐ Entry fee reasonable? ☐ Rights stay with you? ☐ Clear theme & judging criteria? ☐ Submission deadline realistic? ☐ Prize aligns with your goals? 9. Printing & Authenticity: The Role of Brilliant Graphics Partner: Brilliant Graphics (Pennsylvania) – prints for Sally Mann, Mark Seliger, George Tice. Process: Photographer signs their print and sends the signature to Bob Terczak at Brilliant Graphics. The certificate of authenticity is included with the shipped print. For photographers who prefer to print themselves (e.g., Alex Harris), BluePhoto provides shipping guidelines to ensure safe delivery. Why it matters: A signed, authenticated print adds value and builds trust with collectors. 10. Key Takeaways for Photographers Takeaway Action Traditional outlets are shrinking Diversify distribution (websites, social media, niche marketplaces). AI can erode trust Clearly label any AI‑enhanced work; keep original files for provenance. BluePhoto Collective offers a low‑fee, curated marketplace Apply via info@bluephoto.co if you have a strong portfolio and a willingness to collaborate on curation. Contests can be a waste of money Vet entry fees, rights clauses, and relevance before submitting. Signature & authenticity matter Use Brilliant Graphics or a trusted printer to add a signed certificate. Community matters Share fellow photographers’ work on social platforms to boost collective visibility. 11.
