Unknown yet inspiring photographers

[ezphotolessons]

I havesearched but not-discovered yet. Is there a place on https://www.photrio.com where one might find an ever-growing-list of inspired-yet-maybe-unknown / un-spectacularly-famous-photographers whose pictures, aesthetics, composition, work-with-color, work-with-shades-of-gre(a)y might befound? I am looking for a list of "do-not-miss-this" links of websites, blogs, instagram feeds, blurb books and old internet interviews to be inspired by regular people just making pictures in an unassuming approachable way. It can be "cellpix", or "chemgrams" or anything in-between. Is there a place where this list might already exist-here ? I don't want to start a new thread if already exists and I am just two much of a hamhanded site-novice two find it.
Very grateful

You can use this subforum to make threads about such photographers; there are already a few in this category if you scroll through the contents. There's no requirement for photographers being posted in this category that they're somehow well-known; it's fine if they're obscure. In fact, all the more interesting!

If you want to create a list of names without making separate threads for each, feel free to use this very thread you created for the purpose. If it gains traction, we may turn it into a sticky post that remains on top of the forum.

I've built up such a list by using Flickr for nearly two decades and adding 1500 contacts whose work I like during that time period. The problem with lists of inspiring but not famous photographers is that they are not famous, so they are not really listed outside of their social circles.

If you want to see who other people like, you can browse their contacts or favorites tabs.

There are also people who run blogs where they feature various unknown photographer's work: I was approached by one a few months ago and gave my permission to share some photos on the site. This is the site if you're interested: https://analogaesthetics.com/

I think there are many sites like this. I suppose they make money through some product affiliate links.

Yes, this is accomplished just by perusing this website: both known and unknown photographers' work is posted.

Thanks!

It is a bit pedantic, but I expect you may mean "little known photographers" rather than "unknown photographers".

Here is one Unspoken photographer from here in Greece - he does portrait photos very sensitive work.I did his portrait at a one man exhibition he has.
In the photo he is surrounded by smiling faces.
