"I'm not the kind of person to flash someone in the face and then run away" literally a full video of him flashing people and running away ๐
-
As a somewhat introverted photographer - I clenched my buttcheeks throughout that whole episode.
-
Most beautiful part about the confrontation at 31:55 is that, while the man is explaining you should never f*ckn take pictures of guys like him, the cameraman is taking 24 pictures a second of the guy.

I've never met Trevor in person, out of the blue a couple of years ago, he FaceTimed me and we talked for about half an hour. Incredibly nice person. This was great. I'm not a street photographer but I love what you're making with this show, Paulie. โค
-
The photo of his mum, near the end of her life, is incredible and so powerful. Had to stop the video to take it in and laugh at the goosebumps. The story behind it elevates it beyond being just a stunner. What an incredible person Trevor is.
-
Hear this guy talk for a few moments you can tell heโs going to do something. Heโs got that desire and weirdness that artists have.
-
What a character. One of my favorite episodes! This guy is so entertaining to watch.
-
He takes photos, gives advice, sings, shoots ball, and is a comedian. I know how he feels about the pics of his mom, lost mine recently and I have pics of her towards her last days and they're beautiful memories. He and this episode were definitely fun to watch. ๐๐พ๐๐พ๐๐๐

If the joker was a street photographer
-
That confrontation at 31:50 shook me up a bit as it reminded me of when I was starting out in practicing street photography and had a very similar aggressive reaction. I still calmly and politely told the person what I was doing and they understood (we actually had a nice chat after the explanation), but it had still shaken me up the rest of the day. I truly admire just how well Trevor handled that interaction!
-
NOW WHEN THEY SEE US IN THE STREETS ALL THEY WANNA DO IS TAKE PICS AND IM LIKE OKAY
-
Trevor has balls to do street photography WITH THE FLASH ON. Another great video of the series.
-
Love to see a bold photographer who is willing to take the risk and, when the time comes due to take a tongue lashing, remains calm and collected, says what he needs to say to get out of the situation safely, and then CARRIES ON WITH THE WORK. Bravo on the way you handled the confrontation, Trevor! I don't think it could have been handled better tbh. Nothing you could say would have made that guy less angry, so just remain humble, apologize, and get to the next photo. Great episode, Paulie!
-
31:53 is an iconic street photography moment thatโs going to be replayed and replayed for decades.
-
I know Trevor doesn't give a shit, but his approach is aggressive, intrusive, disrespectful. I'm glad there's people confronting him.
-
There's something special about the slightly-off-kilter creative mind of certain artists. It's a little scary too. Like, a little bit too much could go the wrong way. Trevor is clearly on that artist spectrum. You can hear it in his answer of why do you take photos..."Because I have to." I KNEW he was going to say that. You can see it in his eyes. Much respect to him for chasing the art and being polite in the process. Great video, Paulie.
-
What an interesting & talented person!!!!! He handles himself so well when ppl get a little crazy. Thank you for showcasing Trevor & all his thoughts. This is one of my favorite episodes.
-
Love Trevor's reaction when he knows he got a good pic. Beautiful and powerful photos of his mom. Thanks for another great episode Paulie.
-
The two pictures of Trevor's mom blew me away. Absolutley beautiful. The last picture of her had SO much bite to it, at least for me I saw her resiliance and strength. Extreremly powerful.. actually made me tear up. Thank you Trevor for everything you do. For all of us who love and support genueine art, we appreciate your hard work and dedication. God bless.
