Listen Now

On this April Fools day episode, there is little fooling around! We will talk about the 6 things that encapsulate being a Professional Photographer in 2019, and how they are SO important especially for those looking to make photography a new career for themselves going forward. We will also breakdown why Styled Shoot workshops are the Antichrist of the photography educational universe. Plus, why Ted loves the Twilight Zone so much!

We are back after a long hiatus! On this week's episodes we talk about about what prints are worthy of recognition in judged image competitions, as well as the relevance and need for a separate wedding photography degree within the Professional Photographers of America's degree program. Of course, we squeeze in some movie talk as well! Its great to be back!

We don't stick with one topic for too long on this episode - basically we rant. And then we rant some more.

After discussing the prerequisite food and movie topics, we move straight into the new craft store session fad and sound off without restraint. Have a listen and send us hate mail if it will make you feel better, we'll just sent it straight to the trash can, anyway.

Even though the magic of Christmas time is over, we DID make some time to sneak in a visit to Pulitzer Prize winning photographer (and my good friend) Scott Shaw, for what ended up being a magical interview. Scott spends some time chatting about how he got his start in photography, as well as the story behind his 1988 Pulitzer prize winning image of baby Jessica McClure being rescued after falling into a well in Texas. Scott is now shooting weddings and portraits, and we spend a little time at the end of the episode chatting about his transition from shooting for major newspapers as a photojournalist, and his thoughts about where the industry is heading.
