In this conversation, legendary photographer Joel Meyerowitz reflects on a lifetime of seeing through the lens of the Leica M. Joined in an intimate interview at his home, he shares what has made the Leica M system his trusted companion for decades: its quiet presence, reliability, and unique ability to keep photographers connected to the flow of life. From the streets of New York to the quiet stillness of Tuscany, Joel speaks about how photography shaped not only his work, but also his identity. He opens up about the evolution of his vision, the transition from street photography to still life, and the way objects, space, and energy can come alive in front of the camera. This is a thoughtful and deeply personal conversation about instinct, observation, curiosity, and the enduring relationship between photographer and camera.
