A Street Photography Zine for the curiously creative

By Gary Lashmar

Vol. II of The Way of the Street Photographer

Smudge ain’t your average photo zine.

It’s a riotous manifesto for defiant creatives.

Guided by the Street Thief — a name traded in back alleys like contraband wisdom.

You’ll see why photography ain’t about chasing ideas — it’s about burning them down. Why rejection, fear, and failure are your real teachers. The Street Thief doesn’t whisper; he cuts through the noise, kicks through comfort, and makes you stare down what’s really stopping you.

This zine won’t teach you how to shoot — it dares you to wake up and actually see.

If you’re done sleepwalking with a camera, Smudge is the slap you didn’t know you needed.
