Show notes

Part 2 of a 2 part series - episode 29 with California-based landscape photographer, Joshua Cripps. Josh and I had such a fun time on the podcast that it lasted almost two hours, so I decided to split the podcast into two episodes. Josh's sense of humor and story-telling skills are only surpassed by his fabulous landscape photography skills. Josh has quite a library of Lightroom and Photoshop tutorials over on his website and on YouTube that I personally have benefited from over the years.

We covered some really great topics this week, including authenticity, imposter syndrome and the importance of perspective, the importance of networking and the Photo Plus Expo, Josh's amazing life-threatening story of being stranded in the mountains of New Zealand, popular locations and impact, and expectations in the field.

Sapna Reddy - The Art of Seeing in Landscape Photography Nov 15, 2017

Show notes

Episode 027 with California-based landscape photographer, Sapna Reddy. Sapna reached out to me after listening to my podcast episode with TJ Thorne. I have to admit, I had never heard of her before, but after looking at her work and corresponding with her, I was convinced that she would be great to have on the podcast, and I was not wrong at all! Sapna is a Radiologist by training and has pursued a dual career as a landscape photographer. Her unique perspective as a radiologist made for a fascinating conversation. I think you will enjoy this week's epsisode!

We covered some really great topics this week, including "the art of seeing," gender based challenges in landscape photography, motivation and time allocation, pursuing photography as a dual career, the similarities and differences between radiology and photography, and the impact of social media on the landscapes we love.

Paul Rojas - Allowing the Landscape to Dictate Lens Selection Nov 08, 2017

Show notes

Episode 026 with Ventura, California-based landscape photographer, Paul Rojas. Paul and I met on a photography trip to Hunts Mesa - Monument Valley, AZ back in May, 2017. Paul immediately impressed me as a very well-balanced, intelligent, and thoughtful dude. Then, Paul showed me his photos and I was completely blown away by his talent. I had been following Paul's work for a couple of years, but I apparently had not seen his best work yet because I remember being quite enamored with his work when he showed me it in person. Our interview had some technical challenges (my internet dropped three times), but we made the most of it and hopefully it was not noticeable in the podcast! I really enjoyed my conversation with Paul and I think you will too.

We covered some really great topics this week, including conservation, allowing the landscape to dictate lens selection, Paul's journey into photography, backpacking, and much more!

I know you'll enjoy this one. As usual, please find some links to various topics we covered below:

Various backpacking gear, which I have documented about extensively on my mountaineering website's trip reports

Kane Engelbert - Passion for Colorado Nov 05, 2017

Show notes

Episode 025 with Denver, Colorado based landscape photographer, Kane Engelbert. For those that have been following the podcast at all, you'll recognize Kane as someone that I refer to quite a bit on the podcast. I was finally able to get Kane on the podcast by having him join me at my house in Durango, Colorado for an impromptu interview. This episode was a long time in the making! As usual, it was such a fantastic pleasure to discuss the passion of landscape photography with Kane. We discussed a myriad of topics, including his introduction to landscape photography, our shared passion for Colorado's mountains, the state of Landscape photography, the impact of landscape photography on the places we love to photograph, and much, much more. Fair warning, there is some profanity on the podcast.

If you have never seen Kane's work, you are missing out! His work is world class and deserves a long study.

I know you'll enjoy this one. As usual, please find some links to various topics we covered below:

The Summitpost.org album that made me fall in love with Kane's work

Nolan Nitschke - The Business of Landscape Photography Oct 24, 2017

Show notes

Episode 024 with Bishop, California-based landscape photographer, Nolan Nitschke. Fair warning - we did use some profanity in this episode! Nolan recently opened a gallery in Mammoth Lakes, CA, and I was really excited to talk to him about that endeavor. Nolan and I have a similar background regarding our entry into photography since we are both avid backpackers and hikers, so I knew the conversation would vibe quite well. The conversation did not disappoint and I think it is one of the best podcasts yet.

We covered some really great topics this week, and spent a lot of time discussing the business of photography galleries, back-country photography and backpacking, social media vs. seeing photos in person, and more!

I know you'll enjoy this one. As usual, please find some links to various topics we covered below:

The influence of Galen Rowell on his work
The photography of Nick Selway and CJ Kale
