A Photographers Journal Podcast EP 1
There is a saying that has been drilled into the brain of every writer, “Write what you know”, I think that can apply to all forms of creativity. The best photographers I know are all SME’s or subject matter experts. When someone is passionate and knowledgeable about that subject, it shows in their work, their compositions, the story they’re trying to tell. I wanted to start a podcast series where I am talking with interesting and cool people that I have crossed paths with to learn more. I am a naturally curious person and knowing more about what I am shooting will help with my journey and growth as a creative person.
The first episode is in the book with my friend Trent Williams. I love dirt track racing, I love sprint car racing and while knew what I know, I still had some knowledge gaps. While I was in conversation with him about sprint car racing, a lot of lightbulbs popped in my head. I left that conversation inspired and I can’t wait to hit the track again in March.
The podcast is almost 2 hrs long, wasn’t expecting it to take that long, but Trent had a lot of info to flesh out. Ive watched it several times and as always there is room for improvement and I will get better each time.
So I hope you enjoy this and as always, I appreciate feedback, a like, subscribe, and please share.
Thank You
