Summary

Melissa Breyer & Emily Sujay Sanchez are street photographers showcased in the new book, Women Street Photographers. Founded by Gulnara Samoilova, Women Street Photographers has brought together photographers from all over the world who share a passion for public photography. After curating several exhibitions, Gulnara has gathered a collection of talented photographers who bring their personal stamps to the genre.  Breyer’s work consists of ongoing themed projects including True Stories, Watchwomen, and City of Clouds. Sanchez is a relative newcomer to the world of street photography.
