I’m more than beyond proud of my brother and hearing him in this video talk about his accomplishments and how passionate he is about photography. Also to all the people in the comments being rude yes he does talk a lot but keep it to your self, if you didn’t like the video from the start you didn’t need to watch it.
Hell yeah I love the support and love you have for him, but it’s the internet. This is essentially what you sign up.
Thank you and I agree the internet can be tricky.
This series has made me grow so much it’s insane, taking the bits and pieces from everyone’s workflow and further refining your own with it. Thank you Paulie
agreed, best thing out by far on youtube for streetphotogs.
This one was exhausting to get through. He's like that one friend who gets all philosophical when they get high, except this guy's sober.
😂😂😂
He sounds a bit over eager sometimes, true. But come on, he's a 22 year old kid with a ton of passion, ofc he's a bit much at times. It's clear this kid has a deep knowledge of the history and craft of photography, and his work speaks for itself. The guy knows what he's doing.
Do you really think you were more articulate at his age, or more knowledgable, more skillful? I certainly wasn't. Why not try to get past the slight cringe and give Adali the benefit of the doubt? He's clearly got respect for the medium we all love. Let's show him some respect in return.
I loved every second of it. So happy to have found his work thanks to Paulie

Exactly. No one ever bagged on Duane Allman, but you know he always had a guitar in his hands playing around trying stuff, meanwhile Eric Clapton noticed ..
Some people are intimidated by the creative process.

This is my favourite series, I watch all of them, great work
This dude uses so many words to describe simple things, which usually puts me off, but the fact that you can feel his emotions when he speaks about the things he loves with so much enthusiasm and joyfulness, its hard not to be enchanted by the subject matter he touches on. I'm sold!
Is this the first walkie where we didn’t see any of the photographs from the walk?
I always look forward to seeing the photos but I don't think there was any worth showing on this one. hah
love how you talked to him in his home, him showing you all his books was so dorky and endearing
man, this reminds me of what it was like to be young. Use your time, just do as much as you can, as long as you can!
I love it when people can see beauty where I just see something ordinary. That's the genius part. When I look at their photo and think: "Why didn't I see that? It was right in front of me."
He has soooo much energy, wow --- couldn't stop watching this video, I understand his feeling of wonder at the photo opportunities! I get that whenever I go somewhere on vacation or somewhere I haven't been--- really genuine guy and his drive is unreal! He must spend a fortune on film and developing--- really enjoyed the visit with him at his home! great work Paulie!!!! he's one to watch and follow for sure!!!!!
These younger, charismatic and borderline insane photographers like Adali, Trevor Wisecup, etc. make me so hopefully for the future of photography.
There it is! Only a matter of time for the boomer comment! All of those photographers are legends, and literally every “new” photographer in Paulie’s videos give props to Winogrand, Parks, Bresson, Maier (if you actually knew anything, you’d spell her name correctly)… Stop living in the past and gatekeeping art.
Sat down to watch maybe the first 20 minutes of this video this morning with my coffee, but got sucked in and pushed my plans back to watch the whole thing. Incredible thought provoking conversation for someone like me still in the early days of figuring out what I want my photography to be and leaning more and more into family documentation like Adali. Thanks for putting this out
Here for the Chris Verene love. 👏 That book is a favorite of mine.
Uncle Matt says YES 😉
You need to get yourself out to the US, Matt, and get on one of these! I'd love to see Paulie running to keep up with you! ;)
At first I found him irritating but his passion and enthusiasm is so infectious.
You can her in his voice, thar the world hasnt beaten him yet
i agree- he is as broken as the rest of us....but he doesn't know it yet! So many of us had messed up childhoods; he seems to have that white male privilege thing going on?? His mom sounds like an interesting person and a survivor. perhaps she is part of his inspiration? Im glad he found film photography- it serves him as an outlet to flourish.
@@coastalartistlivingonislan8395 the kid is definitely inspired. I remember when I was a lot like him. Starry eyed with an open heart.. I would like to see the direction his work takes after he has had a go at things for a while.
The more is goes on, the more this series of talk & walk is pure gem 💎
i’ve loved this guys work for a while, so glad he’s featured
Came across Adali’s work a couple months ago and became such a big fan. This came at the perfect time !! Thanks Paulie.
It definitely says something about LA that the LA walkie talkies has so much driving in it
I didn't care for that representation in this video. a lot of us walk for miles when shooting.
@@carlos71786 It definitely doesn’t represent other LA street photographers, yes. It can be difficult to walk around because it’s so spacious and public transports are lacking at certain places.
LA county is 4000 square miles. good luck walking that
@@Nathanthefool1LA is hard to photograph it’s not like Rome nor is it like New York
DTLA is also not the most bustling like you would expect
Wow, I absolutely hated all the photos he loved. What a big beautiful world it is.
😂
@@chris_jorge same lol, but I guess beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder
Let’s goooo. I’m gonna watch this at work
THAT PART WHEN HE'S TALKING ABOUT STREET AND HOW IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT'S HIS! PERFECT EXAMPLE IS HOW ALLLLLL THE STREET PHOTOGRAPHERS GATHER TO THAT WATER AREA IN WASHINGTON PARK -THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME AND CAN BE ANYBODY'S PHOTO!!💯💯💯
I was photographing for some years when I had 22 too. Made the mistake of deprioritizing it for many years cuz other adult life shit. That early adulthood energy is one of a kind moment, keep doing what you do, you’ll gonna go far.
This has me analyzing my entire photographic process in a good way. Seeing Adali’s and a handful of others work who are really capturing the intimate details of their lives is really inspiring. I’ve taken so many photos, but not many of them represent my personal experiences. Going to point my camera more at the things I know really well.
Truly one of my favorites in the series. So inspiring to see such dedication and thought-provoking passion for photography.
Love all of the conversation in this one. So good.
Another gem of an episode. Could feel his passion through my monitor. Bravo Adali!
We live in a time of living legends! I loved the iPod touch origin story, and when he busted out City of Quartz, I knew I could trust him with the photographic choices he would make with capturing LA.
This guy is definitely not a living legend 😊
@@MrPhotographerDude Let's come back to your take in 25 years. The attention spans here are short but the Internet always remembers.
Hands on the steering wheel buddy! 😂
Nuclear enthusiasm tempered by intelligence ,,,love it. Also, great air bending in the mercedes.
Typical college educated artist. lol I’ve been around them for years. Passionate. Loud gestures yet soft spoken. And always working on something. This was dope
Maybe its just me but I liked that when you asked him questions he stopped the performance and became what seemed a bit more genuine and thoughtful. Or, Maybe I dont remember what it was like to be 22 years old and really excited about photography. Whatever it is he is getting paid to make his work and his work is resonating with people. That's what matters I guess
I'd be curious to see his energy in 10 and then 20 years. One of my favorite things about Walkie Talkie is what I personally read out of younger photographers vs older ones (and the ones in transition). I think the energy and hunger of younger photographers is interesting and makes me remember my own trajectory. I was hungry and determined, I hit road blocks and snags, I went on a long hiatus, and now I'm back, but older and with a totally different perspective.
Beautifully and honestly articulate and assured in his work. The light, composition, and textures of the images tell a story of LA that is authentic and raw.
Like the car photos and the way you talk about your evolution and process, but Jesus, watching you drive with no hands while facing the passenger, getting stuff out of the back seat, steering with your thighs. . . you are truly 23 years old: invulnerable and immortal.
I REALLY LIKE THIS GUY'S STYLE, SHOTS AND HIS OVERALL OUTLOOK ON NOT JUST PHOTOGRAPHY...BUT THE ARTS! LOVE THE VIDEO!!💯💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow he can talk !!! some good, some bad but his Ohio photos were superb so enough said . Would be interesting to go back to him in ten years and see how he's matured .
So much to love here, but I can say I love how much he loves other photographers photos. Sometimes I forget to put down my camera so I can just enjoy other photographers body of work.
really good one, great work & super inspirational - thanks to both of you!
Ah, the innocence of youthful ambition.
An Ipod touch, which was a thing at the time. bruh lol
made me feel old as dirt lol
Absolutely loved hearing Adali share his passion.
thank you Paulie, i'm beginning a real job of photography, specially in a very good school in France, and i was searchin a chanel where photographers had this opportunity to show how and why they work and why they choose phootgraphy. Thank you very much from south of France
This was excellent!! Wow. Love his energy, the no BS approach to just make it happen. Great inspiration. This series is a cut above the rest. Great work Paulie
Wow I’m early 😂 great stuff as always Paulie
Trevor Wisecup's mortal enemy 😂
Trevor is a thief and a hack
Why a thief?@@evertking1
Really enjoying seeing other photographers that are outside of street photography its great to hear other prospectives.
Love watching these videos. As I learn with my self and my own photography, these videos always brings new ideas and new perspectives on photography and finding uniqueness in your own. 💯
It's refreshing to see such passion.
Best one yet!
Brilliant photographer. . The thing that struck me was his fear of conflict while street shooting.
Not a true photographer (video editor/writer) but this series feels essential in helping my own creative journey!!! Even showed a few videos to my gf (film production) and it's helping her too! Thanks Paulie :)
Really interesting love it guys!
These always make my day. We need an episode with dov and andrwsnapd in toronto!!!!
Walkie talkies is walkie therapy ❤️
Awesome episode, Paulie. Great inspiration for making new work. I’m ready to get back to LA as well…
Amazing!! Excited to see the LA photographers! Try reaching out to Jack Bool or Cameron Strand! Two inspiring photographers for me.
Great to see Richard Billingham getting a shout!!
Put this on while I worked today and I loved it! Great work
I enjoyed this! He was articulate and thoughtful. You guys covered alot of ground in L.A. I was familiar with every location and it was refreshing to see his excitement about them.
I will say, though, there is a huge photography community in LA/LB/OC with photo labs opening and gear stores popping up.
Omg 1hr 20min!! Hooooolllyyyy
Authentic. Appreciate the purity and passion.
the slide show at the end rips very nice work
As A Los Angeles based photographer, I completely relate with his point of view. I am an editorial photographer, but not shooting for the journalistic press more for magazines like LA's FLAUNT and the international magazine PURPLE Fashion Magazine. His elucidation of his influences are shockingly erudite for LA photography that most people don't look at. Just like in the art world, people think of LA as Rusha. People think of LA as Winnogrand, which is fine but what about the others. Its hard to keep up with his book choices because some of the work I have never heard of but I have been looking for the quintessential LA "photo" vistas of the vastness of my home... and Adali has seemed to find them! What about Filipinotown, Silver Lake, Echo Park, Glendale, what about Pasadena... K-Town, the fiuck NO ONE shoots K-Town!
Also, keep the close up contextual work, I've been doing it too. I can't get any traction on it, but somehow it's important (to me). Maybe it is just a build up to something else?
Can we get the photo books he referenced in a list in the description? Thank you!
Just Pure inspiration. It felt so reassuring hearing him speak the same things I feel internally. ♥️
I love this guy!🤣
I really love this documentary series Paulie. I see a little bit of myself in all the people you interview. The one thing I've noticed is all the young guys are trying so hard to be different or find their unique style and be Magnum legends by age 27, while the older photographers are more zen and just shoot.
Does anybody know the song's name at the very start of the video?
"The Recipe" by Kendrick Lamar, ft. Dr. Dre, off of Kendrick's amazing GOOD KID, MAAD CITY album from 2012.
Come to St. Louis.
Nerds are the BEST dude. I would love to hang out with this guy.
what a vibe
Forget about the haters, this was great. So what if he's not doing traditional street photography. He's just being unfiltered and honest. New Yorkers have a certain way about them that rubs some people the wrong way, Texans do, LA types do too, that's just 'merica. If the root of pretentious is pretending, I don't think he was pretending at all.
The Nytimes editor went with this guy because it was cheaper to do a Chris McGinley style of photoshoot with his friends instead of paying each person who invested so much in their car separately. That said, this guy is very LA - I lived there and went into mental institution. Good video, Paulie & don't be put off by haters. I love you & Adali. later.
i love his nikon F2 tshirt
This guy is on it 👌
He's living my dream life…
great photos
thanks Paul
Great episode. 56:50 is so good.
So how long have you been covering Los Angeles?
Feature length walkie talkie. More of this!
Wow. Intense.
You're good in my book with a Massive Attack reference.
Shoutout samy's camera!
I fucking love these videos.
Come to Detroit
The camera on his T-shirt is a Nikon F2, not a Nikkormat like he thought 🤠
Pls do Vancouver BC! lol make my dead town alive again!😂😂😂
