This week my guest is Laurence Bouchard, a British photographer based in Tokyo. He captures the rain soaked streets in incredible detail, his images are also most graphic illustration as much as they are photos and I wanted to speak to him about he approaches the futuristic city he calls home, what it was like to be in a short film shot on vintage glass, and whether he’s fully acclimatised now he’s 20 years into his time in Japan.
More about this show:
A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.
