Introducing Visionaries, a space for storytellers shaping the way we see the world - and those looking to change it. On the podcast, I sit down with storytellers I’ve long admired - photographers, filmmakers, artists, and advocates. Together we explore how they bring their visions to life - from finding collaborators and confidence, to navigating doubt and everything in between. Each episode dives deep into the creative process, personal journeys, and the role of storytelling in times of change. Expect honest, thought-provoking conversations that offer both inspiration and practical insights for building a creative life with purpose. New episodes released weekly here on YouTube. First episode coming soon.

Misan Harriman: The Photo That Changed Everything - Visionaries Episode 2

In June 2020, a single photograph taken by Misan Harriman at a Black Lives Matter protest went viral — shared by Martin Luther King III and seen by millions across the world. Almost overnight, Misan went from self-taught photographer to becoming the first Black male cover photographer in British Vogue’s history.

In this conversation with Alice Aedy for Visionaries, Misan reflects on the image that changed his life, the role of protest photography in shaping culture, and the responsibility of storytellers to capture truth and legacy.

In this episode:

• How one photo propelled Misan onto the global stage

• Lessons from photographing protests and moments of history

• Collaborating with Edward Enninful and British Vogue

• Greta Thunberg and activist photography

• Building purpose, legacy, and impact through images
