Last week, a 28-second BTS video of me photographing a Texan cowboy on the streets of York unexpectedly went viral. It’s been a wild ride – a million views, thousands of new followers, and a flood of support (plus a few critiques). In this post, I reflect on the experience, respond to the “is it really street photography?” debate, and share what I’ve learned about riding the wave without losing the heart of what I do.

A deep dive into my approach to street photography: from visual triggers and gear choices to ethical considerations and favourite locations. It’s about candid moments, creative patience, and showing the world as I see it — one untold story at a time.
