Description
Short discussions about the things a professional photographer worries about all day, so you can worry about them too. Original episodes are released directly to YouTube first, then syndicated to your favourite podcast service so you can enjoy them here :)

For too long we've had the subscription model forced upon us to access software like Lightroom or Capture One. There are genuine alternatives for editing your photos, and you might find they're even better than what you're currently using. All I ask is that you take a look for yourself.

If you are struggling to find your creative path, or let your mojo flow to release your creativity, the missing ingredient may actually be the very thing you avoid. A little bit of structure can open the door to letting your full creative potential take flight.
This is my 100th episode by the way. Which means my first YouTube went up about two years ago, and I've been numbering my podcasts/vlogs in sequence from that starting point. I'll pop open a Yuzu Soda to celebrate tonight :)
Welcome to Vlog No. 100.

More questions than answers in this episode. We're taking a look at the struggles a photographer can face after 25 years of a freelance career, and trying to find a sense of belonging when you are a temporary feature instead of a permanent fixture.

Cameras are loaded with features that make photography a little bit easier, and a little bit more accurate. Shooting manual is great for some techniques, and for some people. But it's not for everyone. For beginners especially, the pressure to "shoot manual" can undermine their creative path.

Perhaps I should have called this one “Does the internet rot your brain?” because we’re taking a little time out to contemplate what it was like to learn the art of photography before digital cameras, and before Tik Tok made the world addicted to 20 second video clips.

How do you setup your camera when you want to capture in Aperture Priority, but still keep a little control over the shutter speed? This question came from someone who owns a LUMIX S5II, but the solution can be applied to pretty much any mirrorless camera these days..

Lots of feedback this week about when sharpness matters in choosing a lens, and when it doesn't. It's very easy to focus too much on the lens, when there might actually be more important factors that influence your photography. Welcome to Vlog No. 094.

There is a lesson here for stills photography just as much as video. We often focus so much on the camera gear that we overlook some of the fundamentals when it comes to photography. Welcome to my Vlog No. 087.
