Not caring can usually be associated with online trolls looking to annoy others, but what happens wh0en you care too much? What happens when you care so much it prevents you from not trying in the first place? It's a strange and interesting balance, and few know that balance better than street and concert photographer Rafael Medina. One would assume Rafael picked up a camera at an early age however the opposite was true, as Rafael did not pick up a camera until years later. It was only when Rafael stopped caring about how others would perceive his work that he actually took his first step. A first step on a journey that would lead to taking photos of artists like Pusha T, and releasing his book Dear PVD. In this episode I speak with Rafael about the challenges of street photography, how concert photography teaches you to make quick decisions, the importance of getting your "at bats", why no one has to like your work, how to get your work into galleries, the anxiety of selling your work at street fairs, why you should join a trade organization, photography as utility vs art, your resume vs your portfolio, and his love for the city of Providence.
