The Longest Stride
André Morgan and Jonathan Greenwald
51. Jay Crews on Fitness Photography and Social Media
"I’m very happy that I personally work in an industry of photo that’s all about movement, because I think that movement is something that iPhones haven’t really got to yet. You have burst mode on your phone, stuff like that, but actually really capturing a strong photo of a very quick movement is something phones really haven’t mastered yet.” - Jay Crews
