Why did you initially get into photography? What was the inspiration? I showed up at my student newspaper the first day of college because I already knew I wanted to be a journalist—but back then, I thought I was going to be a writer. It took a photo editor classmate's assignment emergency and some misplaced faith in my ability to figure out how to work a digital SLR to make me fall in love with photography and photojournalism. Why were you living in New York, and why the move to London? I moved to New York in 2005 to attend Columbia University, and stayed until 2012 while working as a contract photographer for the New York Daily News and then The Wall Street Journal. It's an amazing city, and a great place to start your journalism career. My fiance—who I met while working at the Columbia undergraduate newspaper—is a sports writer who was hired as the Sports Editor of The Wall Street Journal's European edition, which is based out of their London office. It was an amazing opportunity for him, and I'm always up for an adventure. Photo 1 of 7 in London and New York: A Double Exposure Project by Austin Yoder
