In this episode, I'm talking with Chiara Zonca—a fine art photographer originally from Italy, now based out of Western Canada.

I've been a big fan of Chiara's work for a while now, and I'm sure many of you listening to this are probably familiar with her images. I've always been fascinated by the look and unique quality of her photographs, so it was cool to be able to learn more about her journey and approach. 

Chiara's images documenting the landscape have a surreal dreamlike feel to them, and they also showcase a unique personal connection—something that we dive into in this interview. 

Other topics we touch on include: 

• The importance of discovery and letting go


• Photography and mental health


• The necessity of following your passion


• Pursuing projects and how they evolve

And many other things. 

If you're not familiar with Chiara's work, definitely take some time to check it out at the links below. You can also find a link to her book 'Desert Portraits'. I hope you enjoy the talk!
