__T_H_A_N_K__ _Y_O_U__ TheCameraStoreTV for putting this up on TH-cam! William Allard's images are AMAZINGLY WONDERFUL! LOVE his subject matter! Thank you again!
I have probably spent 50 hours looking at the photos in "Vanishing Breed" and this book contains some of the best photographic images I have ever seen. Allard is a photographer's photographer...a genus with a camera!
I loved this, please do more. Such a good balance between the open questions and just letting the man tell his own story. I have to confess that I'm not as familiar with Allard as I am with the black and white documentary photographers from the sixties through eighties. When I have a colour photographer on my bookshelf it tends to be a topographic photographer such as Stephen Shore or William Eggleston. But I have to say I'm just blown away by the selection of images shown here. I love how he uses out-of-focus layers to create that depth, yet each blurred layer is interesting in its own right. The speed of the Amish buggy, you can kind of taste the sodden air in that shot, or the charged atmosphere of that man with the tie entering the bar, all those warm dark shadows that form around so many of his subjects. Throughout CameraStoreTV's past I've seen those bookshelves in the background in the store chock full with so many great works by photographers, and I always thought it a shame the show never really covered that body of inspiration. It would be great to see a video on some of the store's favourites monographs. And it'd be great to see more interviews like this, with both the masters of yesteryear and great young talent making their way. I do enjoy your gear reviews, but for me this is exactly the sort of thing we need more of on TH-cam. Thank you Evelyn, thank you Todd!
Insightful kind words, thank you! I hope to do more of these. We have to see if people like them or not. We were lucky to have such great access to a very important photographer. Cheers
Love Allard's work. I think all the shots used in this video are on film, rather than digital. They have a timeless, dreamlike feel to them. You can tell how much he understands light and how the film responds to it.
Even if it is the "CameraStore", this is most fascinating. Photography is all this is about. Not endless camera reviews. I also like the interviewer's style: calm, serious, unexcited. Very welcome.
I really enjoyed this. I hope this channel focusses on the art of photography more in the future. I know your bread and butter is gear but photography culture needs more of this.
Absolutely stunnig work ! Lots of photos are not perfectly sharp but they are just stunning, hearwarming and incredible. Great photography work, great editing and thank you all for telling his story and letting me know about it. This is pure beauty !
Have all of Allards books & most NG story’s. I feel that he is the best NG photographer of all time! Certainly my favourite photographer of all photographers. Allards philosophy & approach to his work that’s just stunning & so inspirational. He’s a one off. So great interview wish there were more like it,cheers.
I've been a professional photojournalist for over 30 years - Bill Allard's color work is what got me to get out of a b/w only mindset early in my career. I own four of his books and plan on purchasing more. I'm personally indebted to him for continuing to be a singular inspiration creatively in this age of cookie cutter photographers
Kudos for this. I have been a fan of fellow Minnesotan, Bill Allard for decades. Along with other Geographic shooters like Sam Abell, Mike Nichols, and David Alan Harvey, inspired me to pursue photojournalism and documentary photography so many decades ago. If I a 10th of their talent, I' d be a happy shooter. Indeed, more of these profiles/bios, please....
Can't believe this video has so few view. It's excellent! I hope you do do more of this content. Even if you have to spin off another channel or something, IDK, but this content is fantastic. Thanks!
This was so good! I have a couple of videos that I come back to if the GAS is too hard to deal with and I watch them again and I feel that this one can be among them :-)
What a great short film on one of The best photographers, maybe a little less well known than some, but a truly great documentary photojournalist. I'm too far away for the talk, but I'll look out his new book.
His color is amazing! Saturated, deep, solid but still real. Woohoo! What are his secrets? What was he shooting with? M9? Plus what? Wonderful, wonderful work. I am really impressed and not many guys with cameras do that to me. Flâneur et bavardeur. I wanna be him when I grow up. ;o)
I love shooters that are just humbled by what they love to shoot, so much that they highly respect it. i am a beginner film\videographer\cinematographer\ or whatever... lol and his perspective is the same as mine in so many ways. i observe and shoot whats already happening. i dont ask people to do anything extra, i feel like them letting me shoot is already allot. i shoot video like a photographer shoots photos. POINT AND SHOOT!!! (Its a life/TIme saver in post) anyhow, i love old timers... they have a very peaceful, subtle way of explaining what they do no matter how great or legendary the may be. Good Dude he seems to be!
Man a lot of the pics we’re grainy, out of focus shots but they are AMAZING. Nothing beats experience and as he said in the video “a camera is a camera”. TBH makes me kinda sad that I could never compose shots like this with a modern day decent camera.
That's how you know this is a serious photography channel not a celebrity youtuber vlogger photographer. MORE PLEASE
Thanks for this illuminating interview with one of the greatest colour photographers.
Fabulous. More videos like this one, please.
absolutely wonderful...please shoot more of these insightful pieces moving forward

Thank you. Great interview. I hope that you plan on doing more of these.
Showing video of him working, and some stills, with voice over really makes this extra great.
I wish there was more content like this on TH-cam. Great job!
Probably one of your best videos. Such a wonderful feeling watching the legend! Great work!

40 odd years of rodeo photos ,action 95% ,now new inspiration from Allard . Thanks

Great story and amazing photography 🙏🇨🇦

This. Do this more! Very good interview with William Allard
Thank you for giving us this video.
The quote, I try to use a 50mm was the quote for me. Great video with a fine photographer. Please do more.
That was brilliant. Allard was one of those photographers that inspired me and made me fall in love with photography. Thank you!
This is 100% great interview. Great questions.

Thank you. I could watch interviews of the great photographers every day. :)
Really enjoyed that brilliant very insightful and what a lovely chap. Some incredible images over his years too I’ll definitely pick up that book
Fantastic... thank you for this!
What an awesome interview. I really learned some significant pointers.
Thank you so much :)
So many of his images would be highly criticized in a photography class but he gets the moods so well that they are wonderful
Those that can do & those they can’t teach! Long live Alard…
Excellent content, love this new addition to your channel. It's like a walking talking photography book of master photographers. Thank you!
Bill is one of my favorite photographers from NG. Love the interview, please do more of this instead of just gear reviews.
Nicely done video and very interesting man, thanks.
Wow! This was stunning!
Fabulous images from a very modest but brilliant photographer, loved it.
