019: Josh Edgoose

Welcome to the Idle Hands Society Podcast - A community for creatives.

This week, Dan and Paul talk to London based photographer, Josh Edgoose. We talk about being shambolic, his first book Brilliant Parade, Josh’s early commitment to colour photography, long coffee-fuelled photo walks in London, Paul’s views on his own personal work, having someone else reviewing your work, photographing strangers without being creepy, Framelines on Youtube, the power of categorising your work, being inspired by gear, Josh’s love of his city, humour in photography, clawhammer banjo, how Dan and Paul’s work has changed since starting the Idle Hands Society Podcast, our two pence on the film versus digital debate, each of our photograph’s that could have been, and Pauls Wandle Trail project.

Reach out to us @idlehandssociety. Your hosts today are @dan_s_higginson, @paulbenceuk and @spicy.meatball on Instagram.
