004: Adam Moon: Photographer of Delectable Perversions

This has to be one of my favorite conversations to date. Adam Moon. Photographer. Raconteur. Discretely a writer and painter. Adam styled himself for a long time online as a "photographer of delectable perversions," bringing a unique and uncompromising perspective to photography of people, nature and endless combinations thereof. Adam and I have been casual friends for years, and having him on this podcast was the perfect chance to get caught up and discover common ground with each other. We talked about everything from photography to kittens to Florida culture, and we had an absolute ball. Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy this conversation with Adam Moon.
