Interview with Thomas Thornstenssen

Street Shooters of Issue 22

Interview with Thomas Thornstenssen

Early on, it became clear that Thomas Thorstensson had a natural gift for street photography. When you look at the photos displayed on his website, it’s hard to believe he only has two years practicing street shooting under his belt. A web developer by trade, Thomas took to the street a couple of years ago, camera in hand and it wasn’t long before street photography became quite meaningful to him.

Thomas was kind enough to speak with us this month about how his passion for street photography was born and how it has evolved over the past two years. He had some interesting things to say about shooting London, his gear, his plans and the inspiration he draws from his favorite photographer.
