I Am New Orleans: Edward Buckles on Legacy and Culture | Picture America

"I am New Orleans and New Orleans is me.” In this final chapter of our Picture America series, we meet producer, writer, and filmmaker Edward "Buck" Buckles whose first camera was a Canon T2i he borrowed from his best friend, because the urge to make was louder than the budget. Today he reaches for a Blackmagic and a Venus Optics 12mm when the moment is intimate, trusting that every story asks for the right tool. He is a producer, a writer, and a filmmaker, but mostly he is a patient witness who photographs to keep what matters from fading. The focus is photography, the mission is preservation, and the work is built one honest image at a time. New Orleans enters as the setting and the heartbeat. The city’s traditions, from neighbors showing up for families to jazz funerals and the second line, shape how Buck reads a scene and when he clicks the shutter. He is inspired by the way this place carries history and joy in the same hands, and he tries to reflect that balance in every frame. This is the final episode of the Picture America series, an ode to craft first and to the city that sharpened his eye second. Edward Buckles, Jr. is a son of New Orleans. His non-linear path to filmmaking has birthed a brand of visual storytelling - an aesthetically beautiful marriage between fine art and guerilla-style documentation. Buckles’ work calls his audience towards remembrance and to see the beauty in imperfections. The award-winning filmmaker, director, and producer continues to find inspiration in his people and innovative ways to share the stories of Black communities that would otherwise be lost in the passing of time. His film Katrina Babies was shortlisted for a 2023 Academy Award®. His production company, House of the Young Ent. is a beacon in the New Orleans’ arts community and a platform for the culture of the city. His debut HBO Original documentary Katrina Babies, a co-production by TIME Studios, House of the Young Ent., and Creative Control T.V., released in 2022.
