When I want to see street photography in its rawest and darkest form I take a look through brett's stream of images that captivate the soul of anyone looking for something real. Brett is my biggest inspiration of any photographer I have ever witnessed. When I'm asked by my teachers who my favorite photographer is, I tell them Brett Walker from flickr, then Sally Mann.

thank you for never let me forget where true beauty lies thank you for kicking me up my arse slapping me in the face with a dirty rag not letting me fall asleep thank you for making me become better braver. but most of all thank you for your vision. when i first saw your work long time ago i thought i can be… Read more

thank you for never let me forget where true beauty lies thank you for kicking me up my arse slapping me in the face with a dirty rag not letting me fall asleep thank you for making me become better braver. but most of all thank you for your vision. when i first saw your work long time ago i thought i can be myself now and don't give a shit what anybody thinks. You're my mentor and you don't even know it.

Brett is a clear cut genius, he claims he knows "fuck all about photography" when everyone he really knows he calls the shots. I can't thank him enough for being the best teacher and friend. I would still be stuck fucking around on photoshop with freckles and shiny eyes. Now I drink ginger beer and pretend to take phot… Read more

Brett is a clear cut genius, he claims he knows "fuck all about photography" when everyone he really knows he calls the shots. I can't thank him enough for being the best teacher and friend. I would still be stuck fucking around on photoshop with freckles and shiny eyes. Now I drink ginger beer and pretend to take photos with big shiny cameras, and London is not so scary. I hate him for making photos that distract me and make me take photos, stupid walker mind control. Thank you sir, you are the greatest.

Show me a photo in his stream and i can tell you what i was doing and thinking when i first saw it . I remember the photos and the thoughts. A wonderful person who Lets Love In and then lets it go out .There's love everywhere around him even in his darkest moments. If there's any proof that the Internet isn't pure sat… Read more

Show me a photo in his stream and i can tell you what i was doing and thinking when i first saw it . I remember the photos and the thoughts. A wonderful person who Lets Love In and then lets it go out .There's love everywhere around him even in his darkest moments. If there's any proof that the Internet isn't pure satan evil , I guess that would be I met Brett Walker, the artist and the person ,because of it .

He's Miles Davis not playing the obvious, expected note, making you think about the moments between moments. He can shoot like any master and all masters and therefore in my book, is above all. A powerhouse portfolio of in your face rebellion. I've dug through as much work as I can find and nothing touches what you see… Read more

To capture the soul of a person with a camera is a supremely difficult task - with the advent of digital cameras and the wholesale cheapness and disposability of imagery, we are saturated with pictures of people's faces.

To capture the soul of a person with a camera is a supremely difficult task - with the advent of digital cameras and the wholesale cheapness and disposability of imagery, we are saturated with pictures of people's faces. When I stumbled across Brett's work, I immediately knew it was something different...deeper and more considered. A lack of artifice and yet each so constructedly artistic - testament to the genius of this man. I find that when making 'personal' portraits of humans, that it is very emotionally exhausting, because you have to give a lot to get a little. Brett must near to the point of exhaustion....in such a good way. Andrew

Timelessness embodied. Take a step into the world of Brett Walker, but only if you have plenty of time to linger... if you'd ever wondered what it might be like to see through the eyes of another, and if this another was not some ordinary folk but someone who is a true visionary... Not a visionary in the ordinary … Read more

Timelessness embodied. Take a step into the world of Brett Walker, but only if you have plenty of time to linger... if you'd ever wondered what it might be like to see through the eyes of another, and if this another was not some ordinary folk but someone who is a true visionary... Not a visionary in the ordinary sense, but a true seer, a master in the use of the sense we call vision. Seemingly he blinks, and it comes to be. His images are true marvels, and they express so much about the man himself. I see him as kind and loving, full of a capacity to see beauty where few can see it, and reveal it to us all. In the lines of age or the delicacy of youth, in the battle scars and the sparkling eyes, all becomes equally marvelous in the amazing eye of Brett Walker. This man sees the threads that tie us all together, through all time. I can only hope that he keeps walking, continuing to show his compassion through the ray of hope that beams onto the human race through his sparkling lens.
