shutter stories magazine is a new website that focuses on interviewing photographers and finding out what they have to say about their work. Founder Tomasz Trzebiatowski records conversations with some of the most interesting photographers that he knows, including Noah Grey, Jim Zuckerman and Yasuhiro Ogawa. Next up is an interview with Romanian photographer Irinel Stegaru.

“Photography is a strictly visual kind of art. In order to take a photograph, photographer is looking through the viewfinder of his camera. Later on, a viewer is looking at the photograph. It is all about looking and seeing. But what if photographers started talking about their images? I have always found it extremely interesting to listen to what artists have to say about their works. I am a pianist and I love to listen to other musicians not only playing but also talking about their music. The same applies to photographers. While looking at images of my favourite photographers I have been always wondering what they would like to say about them, about their work, about their ideas. And then, at some point, I decided to stop wondering. Instead, I started talking to them. That is how the shutter stories magazine has come to life. It consists mainly of my conversations with some of the most interesting photographers I know. I hope you will find my conversations with them interesting and inspiring. I surely do.”
