Ricky is an aircraft mechanic serving in the US Air Force in Okinawa. He’s an avid street photographer and started his own podcast in 2021, which is called the Leica Street Photography Collective.
In October 2010, Ricky was invited to join his friend at a photoshoot. It was the first time he had seen (multiple) photographers in action and his interest in the craft was sparked. Shortly thereafter, Ricky picked up his first camera and began experimenting.
Even if you aren’t shooting with a Leica, you’re still going to love getting to know Ricky and there are still plenty of gems to glean. For example, how are your sequencing skills? Ricky has some valuable tips to share.
Join the conversation with Bob and Ricky and learn more about Ricky’s photographic journey, how he got into street photography, and how his Leica Street Photography Collective podcast was born.
