Landscape Photography World

Hans Strand, born in 1955 in Marmaverken, Sweden, transitioned from a nine-year career in mechanical engineering to landscape photography in 1990, a decision he has never regretted. Drawn to the untamed and raw expressions of nature, Hans believes, "The wilderness is the mother of all living things." His work spans diverse locales from polar deserts to rainforests, capturing the forces that shape landscapes. Recently, his focus has shifted to human impacts on ecosystems, including water pollution and agricultural landscapes.

Internationally acclaimed, Hans's photography is published in numerous photo and art magazines. He has won thirteen international awards, including the Hasselblad Master Award in 2008, and published seven books centered on environmental themes and humanity's relationship with nature. His images, while frozen in time, tell dynamic stories of movement, evolution, and the passage of time.

In this episode, Hans discusses his evolution from grand landscapes to intimate compositions, and the importance of personal expression in his work. He shares his thoughts on the challenges posed by AI, the influence of social media, and the difficulty of sustaining a career in landscape photography.

Tim Wrate's childhood passion for drawing fantastical landscapes evolved into a love for photography during a 2001 expedition to Mount Kenya. However, it wasn't until 2008, after completing his academic pursuits, that he fully embraced photography. Inspired by medium format panoramic photographers, he adopted a medium format slide film camera in 2010, dedicating himself to mastering its nuances and the discipline required for film photography.

In 2018, on a family holiday in Western Australia, a chartered flight over Hutt Lagoon revealed stunning textures and colors, igniting his fascination with the aerial perspective. This new pursuit led him to travel across Australia, capturing diverse landscapes, from cloud inversions in Kosciuszko National Park to dramatic tidal ranges in the Kimberley.

Aerial photography, though challenging, offered unique rewards. From the open windows of light aircraft and doorless helicopters, Tim navigated wind buffeting, engine vibrations, and shifting perspectives to capture powerful images. Collaborating closely with skilled pilots, he revealed the hidden beauties of the landscapes. Tim's work transcends the obvious, offering fresh insights and a harmonious blend of geography and art.

In this episode, Tim outlines his journey from childhood fascinations to his adult explorations of Australia's diverse terrains from the air. 

Highlighting his transition from film to digital photography and the strategic adoption of medium format cameras for panoramic vistas, he emphasizes the importance of finding a unique photographic voice. 

Additionally, we discuss the challenges and rewards of sharing art in the digital age, offering advice to aspiring aerial photographers and stressing the unending allure of discovery through the camera lens.

Originally purchasing a camera for online sales, he quickly became captivated by the art of photography. Initially focusing on architecture and portraiture, his life  took a transformative turn in 2011 during a road trip to California. Witnessing the majestic mountains and deserts of the West firsthand, previously known only through media, sparked a deep inspiration within him.

Relocating to California that same year and eventually settling in Oregon by 2012, he made the decision to dedicate himself exclusively to nature photography. Exploring the captivating landscapes of the Pacific Northwest, he gradually embarked on longer excursions to the desert Southwest, where he found his greatest inspiration. Living as a full-time nomad alongside his girlfriend from 2019 to 2023, they traveled across the American West in their travel trailer.

While initially gaining recognition for grand landscapes, he now finds himself drawn to more subtle and intimate scenes. Drawing inspiration from the timeless compositions of film masters, he blends the essence of classic styles with contemporary techniques to create his unique body of work.

For Justin, it started when he was driving one day in Minnesota and noticed an unusual cloud in the sky as it swirled along the rural landscape. Luckily he had his  camera with him and he began clicking away.

His phone alerted him of an approaching tornado, a surge of adrenaline rushed through him, and he knew he was in the right place, doing what he was meant to do.

Since that time he’s developed a spontaneous style that ignores some of the technical niceties of photography, but that shows the power and magnificence of extreme weather.

We discuss how he stays safe in dangerous weather conditions, his balancing act of work and photography and how he’s learned to read storm structures to get the results he wants, along with lots more!

I hope you enjoy the show!

Photography and mental health go hand in hand. Today I talk to Andrew Baruffi who has used the power that nature has to heal, and through photography has enabled healing moments for himself.

I won’t go into the details here because Andrew tells his story far better than I can, in the podcast. 

Andrews work draws on the landscapes of Zion and the south-west of the USA where his journey of healing truly began.

We talk about his book Heal, the culmination of his journey through suicidal depression and anxiety, how he has used his photography to make strides in his recovery along with a whole lot more.

David Fairs is a photographer, filmmaker, painter, illustrator, and digital artist living and  working in the Illawarra region South of Sydney. Obsessed with the ocean, documenting the beauty of nature, David believes creators hold more value than our system holds true.

Growing up on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, and being a keen surfer, the sea and water have always been close to his heart and this shows strongly in his art, with his main focus recently being on aerial surf and abstract wave shots.

Formerly a creative director for a marketing agency, David has used many of the  skills he learned in that field in making the decision to make art full time.  He uses creative visualisation techniques such as story boarding etc to shape his creative vision and drive his business forward.

We discuss his encounter with a sea monster, how he uses his business skills to create art,  his involvement with the NFT space along with a lot more!

#podcast #landscapephotography  #creativity #photography 

This week I’ve got something a bit different.  Brie Stockwell and Len Metcalf both brilliant  landscape photographers in their own right, started their podcast, A Creative Affair, a little while ago after meeting during an after party for Matt Payne’s podcast, F/Stop Collaborate & Listen. 

Their podcast is a  collection of lively conversations, exploring creativity through the art of photography and other creative passions.

Brie is an American photographer & life coach who has been exploring her own creativity through her work in nature and landscape photography since 2019. 

Brie challenged herself to exhibit 10 of her best images in 2020, in what she calls an "impossible goal".  Through this challenge, Brie learned a lot about herself which has opened several doors in her life.

Len began his obsession for photography in the late sixties when his father gifted him his first camera. Growing up in Australia’s spectacular Blue Mountains provided Len with an endless array of incredible scenes to capture. He particularly loves the light and mood of misty wet landscapes, abundant in that region.

In 2000 Len opened his own gallery in Katoomba. Combining his flair for both education and photography made perfect sense and not  long after, Len’s School was created.   Len has become renowned as a leading photographic educator through teaching, mentoring and facilitating innovative workshops and tours. 

We discuss how the pair view creativity, how their shared passion has blossomed into an online partnership, the vagaries of social media &  photography along with much much more!

I hope you enjoy the show!

Glenn Walker is an Australian/Melbourne based photographer specialising in sea and landscapes.

He loves to set his alarm for 4am and drive to a location in the darkness and with anticipation, setting up just as the first light taints the horizon. With the awakening of his surroundings, Glenn creates wonderful naturalistic compositions as he observes the changing conditions.

Glenn grew up by the bay and regularly headed to the coast on weekends, so he’s always been captivated by the picturesque sea, sand, surf and Victoria’s many and varied scenic landscapes. In recent years, after a trip to Hawaii, he began viewing the sea through the lens of a camera and has been capturing images ever since.

Glenn also uses his carpentry skills to create frames, in either sustainable or solid recycled timbers, to compliment his images.

He aspires to capture the moment and movement of the ever-changing elements of nature.  Guided by nature’s random tides, swell, water, wind, light, stone, timbers, foliage and all of its captivating hues.

We discuss his adventurous nature, the challenges of selling his prints at market stalls, how he creates his own frames with recycled timber along with so much more!

I hope you enjoy the show!

Rosie Steggles has been interested in photography practically her whole life.  Rosie had her first SLR when she was in high school. 

Digital Photography has allowed her to have more control over how she wants her images to look and so she can create more of a mood in her shots. 

Rosie now focuses on her compositional work and creating a story image from scratch.

While Rosie loves landscape and travel photography, she’s also a very keen explorer of  a lot of genres for example: architecture, surf, etc (portrait photography scares her the most though).

We discuss her horror story, how she’s developed her multiple exposure style, the hacking of her instagram account and how she got it back along with a whole lot more!

#multipleexposurephotography

Paul Belli has been photographing landscapes/seascapes since 2018. Originally from Scotland he’s now well and truly settled in New Zealand and loves having the opportunity to shoot some of the most stunning scenery in the world.

His style has changed quite a bit in those 4 short years. He’s always shot long exposure photography but continues pushing boundaries with the length of exposures he’s taking, taking a deep dive into the realms of ultra long exposure photography.

His first love is taking photographs of the sea, probably in part from the love of having his feet in the ocean, to Paul it's very cathartic.

Being surrounded by natural beauty in New Zealand, Paul uses his camera as an extension of how he sees the landscape and then prints his photos with a focus on the magic he finds. 

Earlier this year he won the Cityscape category in the Landscape Photography World Awards and he’s going to keep pushing the boundaries of his craft.

We talk about where his creative drive comes from, how he balances having a young family with his passion for astro-photography and what success in his photography means to him along with a lot more!

Family man Tom Ormerod lives in Bournemouth on the south coast of England. When he’s not standing knee deep in water or doing an impression of a mountain goat on the side of a cliff, he works as an IT Director and specialises in the Education sector.

He has always been around cameras  and photography but found his niche in 2017. Over the years Tom has had all kinds of cameras such as a hand-me-down 35mm SLR, early digital cameras, bridge cameras and DSLRs but it was the purchase of his Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II that really sparked his interest in the landscapes around him.

He is well known across the South Coast for his enthusiasm and friendliness, always willing to stop and chat with others, encouraging the social & wellbeing side of photography as much as the creative and technical aspects.

Tom has been an active member of the Guild of Professional Photographers since 2019. He quickly achieved his Qualified status and has since been submitting his work for assessment on a regular basis. He has won Gold, Silver & Bronze awards for his work and has achieved the multiple Photographers Bar awards (for consistently high quality work over a year) in the Natural World and Open categories. In 2021 he was shortlisted for the Image of the year award (Vasco Da Gamma Bridge) and finished as the overall Runner up in the Open category.

We discuss what photography means to him, how he balances a busy career and family life with his photography, his love of the south coast of England and much much more.

Rachael Talibart is a professional seascape and coastal photographer. Her critically acclaimed photographs of the ocean and coast have been featured in the press all over the world. Rachael is represented by galleries in Europe and the USA, her work is frequently exhibited and her limited edition prints are collected internationally. She is the author of three monographs, including Sirens and, most recently, Tides and Tempests, and she writes for photography magazines.

Rachael grew up on the south coast of England. Her first career was as a solicitor in the City of London. During the City years, Rachael’s friends and colleagues were used to seeing her return from trips with bags full of exposed film; the development sometimes cost more than the trip! In 2008, she converted to digital and she says that is when the obsession really set in. In 2000, Rachael left her City career and, after obtaining two more degrees, she now works full-time on her photography.

Much of Rachael’s early childhood was spent at sea. This has left her with a life-long fascination for the ocean in all its forms, but especially in stormy weather. Rachael travels widely for her photographs but retains a special fondness for the South of England and many of her images are created there.

Originally from just outside New York City, Mike Poggioli came to see photography as a serious creative outlet when he moved to Chicago in 2015 and became enamored by the beauty of the city’s architecture. He then brought his newfound love for cityscapes with him to Cincinnati, Ohio, where he studied clinical psychology. Photography became an opportunity to cultivate mindfulness – a way to see the world with a beginnerʼs mind – in both his personal life and professional practice. It wasn’t until he began a clinical internship in Asheville, North Carolina, that he ventured into landscape photography. During his time there, Mike discovered a passion for capturing the layers of the Blue Ridge Mountains. He has since listened to the call of the mountains by deciding to settle in Asheville.

We discuss his new book Blue Ridge Dreaming, published by Trope Publishing Co., how he came to  shift from Architecture photography to natural landscapes and much much more!

Arwin Levinson is a Las Vegas-based landscape photographer known to capture some very compelling photography that depicts nature in its most raw and ethereal form. She’s devoted her time to capturing not only perfectly timed photos of our world but also the feeling of awe you get when you experience those moments of wonder in real-time.

Arwin was born in Massachusetts and studied computer science at the University of Illinois before finding herself in Las Vegas. One day, on a road trip through the country to help her sister move to Los Angeles, Levinson found herself driving through the mountains in Colorado when she felt immediately inspired by nature and the views of the mountains. She picked up her first camera not long after, and found herself wandering around the landscapes trying to capture as much of the land surrounding the North West as she could. When she moved back to Illinois, she found herself in a city with very minimal landscape opportunities, but a work trip that took her all the way to India, where she got the chance to visit the Himalayas, would rekindle her passion for photography again.

We discuss how she came to see the landscapes around her as old friends she can revisit many times over as well as her love for capturing the unusual and astronomical events that can be seen in the brother skies along with much much more!

Sara Boychuk has been a “photographer” since she was a child.  She photographed on film and was published at a young age.  After school, she decided to move into the medical field following 2 degrees and when she got deep into nursing Sara was truly reminded how precious and finite life is.  Taking pictures freezes a time in life that is never replicated- for that brief moment.. time stands still.  She cherishes that so deeply and seeks this stillness in everything she does.

Living in Canada Sara gets to enjoy adventures in all seasons: hiking, kayaking, skiing, snorkelling, and a whole lot of general frolicking in nature. 

We discuss how she made the decision to move into full time photography and where that journey has taken her along with a lot more.

Chris Wright is a photographer living on Sydney’s northern beaches, whose interests extend from natural and urban landscapes, to travel and street photography. As a university professor and senior climate change researcher, he has a strong interest in the natural environment and the sustainability of ecosystems and planetary health. 

His photography journey began more than thirty years ago growing up on Sydney Harbour, using his first cameras to capture the beauty of the ocean, as well as on fishing trips to Australia’s tropical north and Papua New Guinea (many of his images featured in fishing magazines of the time). 

In the 2010s he rediscovered a love of photography on overseas trips to major cities in North America, Europe and Asia. Embracing mirrorless, small format cameras, this late in life rediscovery of the joy of photography has grown into a consuming passion as his knowledge of the technical aspects of composition and processing has developed. 

In recent years, the pandemic has led him to shift his attention towards local seascape and landscape compositions and explore the creative possibilities of hidden waterfalls and the beauty of beaches and headlands at sunrise and sunset. He has also sought to marry his research interest in climate change with photographic projects exploring the fossil fuel industry and its physical impacts on the landscape and society. This includes exploring ways to extend his photographic vision into artistic and abstract compositions which address the realities of the vulnerability of the natural environment and the changing landscape we are now living within.

We discuss climate change and the challenges we face with it, how Chris uses his imagery in his educational career, the way photography has helped him with mental health and his career as a climate scientist along with a whole lot more.

This week Larryn Rae joins me to talk about his stunning astro and scenic landscapes from NZ and around the world.

With a decade of world travel and photography experience, Larryn came to realise that truly remarkable landscapes are more than just photogenic geological structures. Their moods shift with the weather, their faces change in the shadows, and while they dance in daylight, they never lay dormant at night.

Larryn fell  in love with the way mountains come alive under the Milky Way, the moment the sun and ocean melt together, the haunting comfort of fog banks lighting up as they envelope a city skyline and the way the stars blur as the world twirls beneath them.

It’s all lead him to what he describes as his compulsion to capture more of these fleeting moments of time in nature, and in the process, create portraits of New Zealand’s true essence.

We discuss how his compulsion has grown, his recent move to the South Island of NZ to pursue his passion and his incredible workflows both in the field and in post production and lots, lots more.

This week I'm joined by Steve Belasco talking about his unique coastscapes where he captures landscape images from the sea!

I first saw Steve’s work in a pub when I was on holiday in Dorset earlier this year. What I saw was a series of intriguing images of the coast of Dorset taken from a boat on the sea.  They were unique and interesting so  I spoke to the barman and luckily he had one of Steve’s business cards behind the bar.

When I got home I contacted Steve and he agreed to be my guest for this week’s episode.  His career spans several decades from his days as a newspaper photographer through his paparazzi and sports photography years to freelancing and eventually to what he now loves doing; showing people the Jurassic Coast from a very different view point.  Everyone has seen Durdle Door and many of the iconic locations from the land, nut few have photographed it in the way that Steve is doing.

He has published a number of books of his coast scape photography and has just published a new one which we talk about in the show.

We also touch on why he gave up newspaper photography, how he manages a camera and a boat at the same time and his work in magazine production and his association with the Jurassic Coast Trust along with a whole lot more 

I hope you enjoy his fascinating story!

 In this episode I'm joined by Jenna Dixon discussing her incredible landscape photography journey.

Jenna has always loved the outdoors, but it wasn't until moving to the mountains that she realized her passion for raw, remote and rugged landscapes. Originally from Manitoba, Jenna moved to the Canadian Rockies two years ago with her camera in tow, and has since logged thousands of kms trekking through the backcountry of numerous national parks around Alberta and BC.  These experiences have left her more grounded and appreciative of Canada's natural beauty in which she hopes to share through with the world.

With the Canadian Rockies as a stunning backdrop, there's no adventure too grand.

As an adventure and travel photographer, expedition style exploration is the best way to get off the beaten path and into the rawness of nature.  It is Jenna’s goal to capture the unique and captivating stories of individuals that love to venture farther and push their limits in the outdoors. 

Jenna works part time in photography, balancing that with a busy schedule as a travelling nurse, after finding her community amongst the grand landscapes of the Banff National park.  We discuss how photography came to be such passion and how she has started to grow her photography career along with a whole lot more!

In this episode I’ll be talking to Alister Benn about  his work and motivations along with a  range of other topics I hope you’ll find interesting.

Alister Benn lives and works in a secluded Glen on the west coast of Scotland with his wife Ann Kristin. He takes pleasure in sharing his thoughts with others, through his eBooks, video series and mentorships. He is a Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society, a musician and composer and writer. He is mildly obsessed with watching birds!

Photography for Alister is so much more than an end product, and he believes the more we are focussed on that, the more elusive it will become. Creativity is hard to pin down, it refuses to be placed under the microscope, and observing it changes it. Our creativity lies in creative living; one of acceptance, non-judgement and freedom of speech. Our creativity is in there, desperate to get out, and who does the best job of stopping it? Yes, you guessed it, us!

We discuss his thoughts on creativity and how it relates to self worth and explore how he has established his business around the ability to express ourselves through photography along with a whole lot more!

In this episode I’ll be talking to Tristan Todd about  his art, motivations & the structure of his new  business along with a  range of other topics I hope you’ll find interesting.

Tristan is a landscape photographer based in Vancouver, British Columbia.  Over the past few years photography has become a core part of who he is, transforming the way he sees the world and becoming his deepest passion.  

Photography has become a vehicle for Tristan to express himself and push outside his comfort zone.  After spending some time writing code and exploring virtual worlds oblivious to the very real and beautiful world around him.  Through photography he has learned not only how to see the world but experience it as well.

Tristan’s goal with his images is not to strictly document the environment but to convey his experiences and feelings.  A firm believer in discovering new compositions and exploring lesser known places, he spends his days trekking into the wilderness and mountain areas near his hometown.

We discuss how he decided to quit his job in September 2021 and pursue a full time career in photography as well as his passion for creating stunning forest and winter scenes from the beautiful Rockies a short distance from his front door.

William Patino joins the podcast to talk about his photography career and what gets him going.

William grew up in the coastal town of Wollongong, NSW Australia and has been a full-time landscape photographer since 2014. He now resides in the mountainside town of Te Anau, in the South Island of New Zealand. 

Photography came into William’s life around 2011 and it has helped him see the world differently, giving him a newfound appreciation for nature and the many intricacies that many overlook and perhaps take for granted. William’s work is based around a deep reverence and awe of nature and the creator, and it’s this that he tries to express through his images. His love for dramatic light and atmosphere is a constant inspiration, and he enjoys the endless pursuit of these elusive moments and the freedom found within.

Most at home in his adopted backyard of Fiordland, and its mountainous landscapes, WilliamI truly enjoys rugged coastal scenes and being amidst the infinite greens of the rainforests. Exploration and weather plays a huge role in his photography and he draws inspiration from exploring the unknown and those fleeting, spontaneous moments in nature.

We discuss his methods of teaching on his workshops and online courses, the importance of being a business person first and foremost when it comes to setting up a photography business and his sense of wonder at the world around us

Deb is a landscape, seascape and tourism photographer based in Hamilton, New Zealand.  She is happiest outside capturing moments in time, from the first light of morning to the last light of the dying day.

Her work has been published in LENS Magazine, in InSpades, Nomadict, Nisi Fine Art Photography and in various other publications.  Deb is a  'Featured Photographer' with NikonNZ and was one the ten photographers chosen to exhibit in New Zealand - "Iconic Futures'.

Craig is based in Brisbane and looks to explore new and interesting locations as often as possible to capture nature’s beauty.  He is particularly passionate about being by the water and many of his images reflect the emotions these visits provide.  

He loves to capture stunning sunrise and sunset images, long exposures and scenes of moving water and clouds.

We discuss how he got started in photography through his job and how it has become a place of serenity and release from the stresses of everyday life.  We talk about how he draws inspiration from a range of sources and locations, the impact social media is having attracting people to locations along with a whole lot more!

In this episode I'm talking to Craig Crosthwaite about  his work and motivations along with a  range of other topics I hope you’ll find interesting.

After 30 years in the Advertising Industry Craig decided to follow his passion for the coast, surfing and photography.

Craig started surfing at the age of 8 and he’s still catching waves. Surfing has given him a passion for the water and an understanding of the elements, wind, waves and weather. He also loved photography, but had limited knowledge of the wonderful things you could achieve through capturing light. So, he undertook a course at RMIT in Melbourne and ignited a passion for all things photographic. 

Craig has combined his love of the ocean and his sense of adventure with his newly acquired skills to create a substantial and high quality portfolio of work. 

Craig Crosthwaite’s images are a stunning record of the world around us, but they are also an indication of his visual sensitivity, situational awareness, and his commitment to be at that place at that time ready to be surprised by nature. This is not a simple or easy thing, and in this being a surfer has obviously been instructive. Craig’s images show a deep understanding of nature’s ebb and flow, an ability to anticipate elemental movements and place himself at key points in time and space as all these components are drawn together. He has an artist’s eye, knowing how to position himself in the landscape to bring the light and natural elements together to create stunning images.

We discuss his passion and how his advertising and graphic design background have shaped his work along with some hair raising adventures during thunderstorms.

I hope you enjoy the show!

This week I'm talking to Adam Karnacz about  his work and motivations along with a  range of other topics I hope you’ll find interesting.

Venturing to remote locations, Adam strives to inspire a diverse following to explore the art of photography, adventure and the human condition. Drawing on his philosophical approach to life, Adam’s photography goes beyond technique or literal representation of a scene to tell a story that resonates and inspires.

For some years photography, whilst still an important part of his life, remained a hobby as, in 2005, Adam joined the Police, moving to London and starting his career on the beat in the Metropolitan force.  It was during these eventful and challenging years that Adam developed a philosophy of life which feeds into everything he does today both as a person and a photographer. 

After a number of years of budget cuts and growing disenchantment with the direction policing in Britain was taking he began to contemplate the possibility of a change of career and so in 2014,he decided to give up his role as sergeant and moved to West Yorkshire in pursuit of a more affordable lifestyle with greater and easier access to the countryside, which he felt was important both for his future plans and for his own wellbeing and that of his young family.

During the next four years, he set about building up his photography into a business that was viable enough to support his family.  A large part of the early success of his business was building up his YouTube channel, First Man Photography, to the point where he was reaching tens of thousands of people every week with his videos. These videos started off as tutorials but very quickly developed into a sharing of his experiences, his love of the outdoors and landscape photography, and in fostering that love in other people.

As of March 2022 the First Man Photography YouTube Channel had almost 150k subscribers, over 250k views a month and 1.5 million minutes watched per month.

What sets Adam apart is the philosophy on life and on mental wellbeing that he weaves into much of his commentary and his work.  He is a storyteller, crafting his journeys through the landscape into meaningful and fulfilling experiences which he shares with others through both his finished artworks and his films.

Above all else Adam’s passion and enthusiasm for photography is infectious and he works tirelessly to encourage a love of the landscape and nature in others.  His skill set is wide and covers a broad spectrum but at the core of everything he does is the desire to tell stories, lift up those around him, take on challenges and inspire a diverse following to explore the art of photography, adventure and the human condition.  

We discuss how his career and motivations have developed, his passion for seeking out the stories behind his work, the work he has done  to educate himself about how the economy and energy sector works and how that relates to the current trend around NFT’s and why he won’t sell his work as NFT’s  along with a lot more!

This week I'm talking to Izzy Abuleela about his stunning extra long exposures as well as some interesting experiences he’s had along the way.

Izzy likes to say that he’s just a normal guy with a passion for photography.  But he’s much more than that.

He can't help but rise before sunrise and head out into the dark, camera in hand, looking to capture the landscape in the pre-dawn gloom.

He  shoots exclusively with the Fuji Medium Format digital system. Specialising in the practice of long exposure,  Izzy captures the often unseen beauty by the art of simplification, presenting a unique view of the world where time is expressed in physical form.

Originally from Liverpool in the UK and now living in Australia. Izzy is dedicated to exploring sharing iconic and lesser known locations around his local area and across Australia. 

He runs a popular YouTube channel where he shares his journey, approach and camera techniques and by doing so connect and learn from the viewer through comments and suggestions.

This time I’ll be talking to Courtney Clark or Courts Jay as she is known online,  about her photography journey and how it has shaped her relationship with the world.

Courts is a West Australian based Travel & Adventure photographer who shoots landscapes, architecture & portraits. A qualified and practising Engineer and a strong advocate for Inclusion & Diversity.

Her photographic style is bold & colourful, and incorporates elements of symmetry and scale.  We discuss how she has continued to develop that style over time, with a focus on bright colours and contrasting elements. 

In 2017, She lost her father suddenly and a close friend 2 months later. These events made Courtney question what she values in life and completely changed her perspective on a lot of things. It made her realise how short and fragile life is, and has chosen to make the most of every opportunity she gets to travel since. 

Photography to Courtney is not only a passion, but it is a way for her to keep the connection alive with her Father.  

We discuss her work and how that shapes her photography, her adventures in the Italian Alps and how the pandemic has affected her relationships and provided an impetus to dive headlong into the NFT photography scene.

I hope you enjoy the show!

Kieran Stone joins the podcast to talk about  his work and motivations along with a  range of other topics I hope you’ll find interesting.

Kieran’s photography career started when he moved to London a while back and started to document his travels around Europe.  On his return to Melbourne as a biomedical scientist, he started to get more serious about progressing his photography and spent a lot of time working on his brand and skills and promoting his work via social media.

If he could sum up his life in one word it would be “Curiosity” Ever since he was a child he has been interested in the world around him and the Universe as a whole. Wondering at the millions of years that went into creating coastline or mountains was much more appealing to him than the ever changing focus of media and entertainment.

This wonder and curiosity combined with wanderlust to see all that he could has brought with it an inevitable desire to capture the world through photography. The more places he visited, the more cultures he came to understand, drove his passion to create images that portrayed the splendour and the raw emotion it evoked.

Kieran’s photography is an expression of his thoughts and philosophies. It is a description and physical representation of his life as a passage through time and development as a Human. He endeavours to never stop learning, whether it is in photography, science, his own personality, or existence as a whole.

In this episode I'm talking to Talor Stone about her photography journey and an exciting new project she’s started.

Talor Stone is a PhD researcher and photographer based in Pensacola, Florida.  After serving as a federal agent for the United States military, Talor broke from the traditional career path to pursue photography.  

As an Arctic specialist, Talor has spent a significant amount of time exploring the northern region.  Her summers in Greenland have inspired numerous academic research projects on topics like globalization and indigenous identity, mass tourism and peripheral communities, and climate-induced human migration among Inuit populations.  These themes are echoed in her photographic pursuits which focus heavily on Arctic landscapes and other climate change-inspired projects that allow her to visually explore the real-life aspects of her academic subjects.  

To further this mission, in 2022-2023 Talor is partnering with filmmaker Ashlei Payne to produce a documentary about the modern changes of hunting culture in northern Greenland based on more than 4 years of academic research.  

Talor’s work is about more than photography.  Her images merge science and art to highlight themes of transition and fragility and to emotionally connect viewers to places few will ever visit.  Her hope is to raise awareness that climate-threatened landscapes are more than data points, charts, and statistics – they’re living places that deserve to be protected in their own right.

In her role as an educator, Talor considers it a priority to enhance awareness and appreciation of the natural world through speaking engagements and hands-on education.  Her photography workshops focus on introducing others to these magical and remote places and creating a deeper understanding of the environment while also learning new technical skills.  Talor is proud to be a Pro with Muench Workshops who offer incredible and immersive photography experiences worldwide.

This episode I’m speaking with Julian Lallo about  his work, NFT’s and a range of other topics I hope you’ll find interesting.

When first picking up the camera in 2015 photography was for Julian  nothing more than a hobby - an excuse to hang out with friends and take photos of their sneakers. But it very quickly progressed to something much more than that. It became an obsession; an obsession which led Julian to experiment with all genres of the craft. From street photography and landscapes to portraiture and food.

Through the power of social media his work was soon recognised by both brands and the photography community alike. Gaining work with recognised brands, in international tourism and an ambassador  for Canon Australia.

As his interests have shifted, so too has Julian’s main focus and passion in photography; a shift towards fashion photography. A direction that is off to a great start, having involved campaigns both locally and internationally, with clients such as New Balance, Nana Judy, Intimo, Seafolly and George & King

However, through the ever evolving journey of his career as a photographer one thing has remained the same… It still doesn’t feel like work!

This week I'm joined by Jeff Freestone to talk about his stunning intimate landscapes in the high country of south eastern Australia.

Jeff lives in the small remote town of Omeo, nestled in the heart of the Victorian High Country. He and his family moved here in 2017 from Melbourne seeking a quieter life, away from the hustle and bustle, to raise their children.  What started out as a new hobby quickly turned into something that would soon consume all of Jeff’s free time and resulted in a desire to learn as much as he could about the art of photography. His previous love for art and creativity, which had been lost for many years during during his time chasing money and status, would eventually return in the form of photography and would ultimately become his new tool for artistic expression.

We discuss how he and his family came to make the decision to give up city life for a quieter existence, how the high country has influenced his artistic direction and his passion for intimate forest scenes and much more.

In this episode we meet the very talented Viktoria Haack.  Born in England, Viktoria first became interested in photography when she was given an SLR camera for her 18th birthday.

At University she attained an honours degree in World Art Studies and Museology. This gave her exposure to the numerous different art forms across the world and enabled her to look beyond many of the western conventions of art. For her, photography is more than capturing a physical moment in time: It is also about capturing feelings and emotions.

Viktoria has completed many photographic assignments including commissions for the National Trust (the largest conservation charity in the UK), leading architectural firms and has been published by the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation). She is an accomplished portrait photographer who specialises in utilising natural light.

Her work covers the fields of landscape, portrait, wedding, event, promotion, editorial, stock and photography education and she is a brand ambassador for Nikon Canada and Lowepro Bags.
