About Max Shutter

Hey there, fellow urban explorers and photography enthusiasts! I'm Max Shutter, a street photographer, urban planning enthusiast, and avid walker. My journey into the world of photowalks began when I moved to New York City and found myself captivated by the endless stories unfolding on every corner.

With a background in photojournalism and a Master's in Urban Studies, I've spent the last decade documenting city life across the globe. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the historic alleys of Rome, I've learned that the best way to truly capture a city's essence is on foot, camera in hand.

Through "Urban Lens," I aim to share not just photography tips and techniques, but also insights into urban exploration, the art of observation, and the stories behind the images. Whether you're a seasoned photographer or someone who just loves to wander with your smartphone, this blog is your guide to seeing the city in a whole new light.

Join me as we hit the pavement, discover hidden gems, and learn to capture the pulse of urban life through our lenses. Remember, in the world of photowalks, the journey is just as important as the destination. Let's explore together!
