TFL 034 - When You're at the End

Wed, 15 Jul 2020 08:57:57 +0000

What better to discuss and muse about for the last episode of this podcast than what to do when things end?

From being aware of your work enough to evaluate if things should carry on, what priorities to consider if you're at that crossroads, and what we can take from these efforts even once they wrap up (or evolve into the next work).

Also and to not leave you photo-podless, a listing of legendary pods (linked below) that you better damn well already know or soon check out towards a better photo life.

Enjoy and thanks for listening! :)

Wed, 18 Mar 2020 20:11:41 +0000

As a photo tour operator and commercial photographer here in Brugge since 2012... I **definitely** noticed the Coronavirus / COVID-19 situation here big time to say the least.

I talk about the situation as the exclusive topic this week, even got the wife in to ask the questions so it wouldn't get too monologue-y not to mention keep things smiling in this very tough moment of my photo life.

TFL 029 - Clik-Tripping with Suzanne Porter

Mon, 10 Feb 2020 23:22:01 +0000

This episode we chat with Suzanne Porter about her fascinating journey in photography, from her NGO humanitarian shooting globally (with an emphasis on Africa) before settling down in Morocco to open her photo tour in Marrakesh in 2009.

The story certainly doesn't stop there: in 2019 she started Clik-Trip.com as a currated directory of photo workshops for the traveling shutterbug to find the best tours and workshops.

We go deep into all that and more including on street portraiture in strange lands, lovely lady with an amazing story to tell beyond her photos, I feel the same with her Clik Trip work and a pleasure to sit down with to hear her story.

TFL 025 - Chatting with Valerie Jardin (pt 2 of 2), Q&A on gear choices for travel photography

Mon, 30 Sep 2019 09:47:00 +0000

Part 2 of my chat with the wonderful Valerie Jardin!

Last time we covered her process of building a fine art photo book (episode link) and this time it's a freeflow chat about Paris, getting the shots on the street (whether on her own or while leading her workshops), then some gear chat re. the Fujifilm gear she prefers to use and how she prefers to set those settings.

After that it's Q&A with yours truly solo on the mic to take your questions both creative and technical, this round it's about what cameras and lenses (and more) that I pack for my travels both near and far.

Hope you enjoy, and questions or feedback is welcome via thisphotolifepod {at} gmail.com should it interest or please!

(...and apologies for the slightly delayed episode release, totally my bad during the last busy days of September season...)

TFL 022 - Threads of Thought with Karen Hutton (part 2 of 2)

Tue, 21 May 2019 19:16:59 +0000

PArt 2 of my chat with Karen Hutton goes long and loose on finding sources of learning, Karen's photo inspirations (not all of which are photographers either!), dark times and dealing with it, photo feeling and therapy, and even delve deep into becoming a Fujifilm X Ambassador.

Such wonderful energy and a sheer pleasure for both parts of our lengthy chat, hope you enjoy!

I have a wonderfully open and wide chat with accomplished travel photographer & photography instructor Karen Hutton, a wonderful ray of light in the photographic community and was a pleasure to have time with her! :)

In part 1 of this 2 part chat, plenty of photo & life threads of discussion including structure vs. chaos, practice, finding knowledge, and critiques among other topics.

Enjoy!

TFL 020 - Spring into Spring

Thu, 25 Apr 2019 09:11:01 +0000

This episode I sing (in a brief monologue kind of way) about the joys of spring for photography and life, whatever you shoot and however you feel it's definitely the season to get out there and get shooting...

Also perhaps the shortest episode of this show yet and apologies for the slight delay on release, was crunching a ton of photo work (both shooting and teaching) with this lovely season & proving my above point about getting out there. ;)

TFL 019 - Photo Fun with Ian Van Landuyt

Wed, 03 Apr 2019 19:13:57 +0000

This episode I chat with photographer, previous drop-in guest and buddy o' mine Ian Van Landuyt.

Like previous visits with Ian we get silly and cozy on the chat and all that, however there's plenty of serious business with what Ian's been getting up to with his cameras in Iceland & Italy among others, not to mention where his photo love all started and why he works it (but doesn't worry about it just) as work.

Ian also indulges my guessing a bit to what he's saying and spinning out some photo tips and thoughts that we bounce off each other for, such a pleasure to have a variety of guests and this guy is up towards the top! :)

TFL 018 - Scott Kelby goes off Grid (part 2 of 2)

Wed, 20 Mar 2019 09:23:18 +0000

Part 2 of my chat with photography educator, author, all around nice fella Mr Scott Kelby.

With a heavier lean to the photo side proper, Scott opens up and shares his views on photo communities and brands (and yes a bit of gear specifically) among other topics.

Stay tuned if nothing else for Scott's honest response to how he feels about his own photography at the end, might be heartening to your own process that he feels there's always room to grow! :)

TFL 017 - Scott Kelby goes Off Grid (part 1 of 2)

Wed, 13 Mar 2019 09:11:52 +0000

This episode of the podcast, I'm delighted to chat to industry legend Scott Kelby the photography educator, photographer, founder and head of the KelbyOne photo education network.

We certainly get into that (especially in part 2 next week) but largely this is a chat to get to know Scott the person, he's been interviewed plenty on his work (see links below) and ol' Andy wanted to see what sets Scott up for the best exposure to the life that might inspire a photo... Or even just soaking it in without firing a frame.

Next week for part 2, stay tuned and hope you enjoy this! :)

To kick off the first episode of 2019, we discuss what Andy's been up to a little on the off season... Which is -relaxing + resting- and makes sense towards being the topic for this return episode.

Don't worry... It's still leads back to your photography in serious ways and hope you enjoy. :)

TFL #014 - Family Portraits with Pieter Claerhout

Fri, 07 Dec 2018 21:18:39 +0000

I chat with Pieter Claerhout of Jono Fotografie about his purposely part time work as a family portrait photographer next to his full time work as Chief Technology Officer of Twixl Media.

We discuss the process of how he and his wife bring smiles to families (usually in a bulk season around communions), the importance of his own family and why he's not rushing into taking photos full time, and (with him being a tech head supremo) also getting into his process after the shoot and backing up files and so forth.

In part 2 of my chat with wedding photographer Matty Houlder, we continue to dig deep into providing a wonderful experience and photos for the lovely couple on their big day.

Fri, 19 Oct 2018 16:31:08 +0000

We reach out waaaay over to Australia for our guest this week, Matty Houlder to share his advice after setting up his wedding photography business in the last year!

Matty and I had a superb chat about how he works a wedding from front to end, the gear (Nikon) comes up for sure but certainly a focus on his mindset of looking after his people with care before they even meet.

Part 1 of 2, there's a lot to get through here and nice one Matty for the generous sharing!

This episode we have another special guest on the show: acclaimed French street photographer, host of the "Hit The Streets" podcast, and regular instructor Valerie Jardin and superb to have a chat!

We discuss Valerie starting her career as a commercial photographer in her adopted home in America and then leaving it all behind to shoot (and share) her own interests and passions on the camera.

We also chat Fujifilm a bit (not just because she's a Fujifilm X-ambassador either haha) as well as another range of topics, inspiration for us all.

This week on This Photo Life, good buddy Ian Van Landuyt drops by again and we (with full candor) discuss the mirrorless full frame announcements from Canon & Nikon, obviously Sony & Fuji & the other camera makers come up for comparison.

Thanks for listening, drop us a line and/or share with others if you heard something you enjoyed.... Might encourage more silly babble. ;)

TFL 008 - Ibarionex gets candid

Wed, 05 Sep 2018 09:57:06 +0000

On today's This Photo Life I have a special guest indeed, I was lucky enough to interview the wonderful Ibarionex Perello and still can't believe it actually happened: First guest that wasn't the wife or a good buddy here in Brugge, guess anything's possible! :)

Ibarionex is an accomplished street & people photographer, instructor via his workshops & publications as well as his weekly show The Candid Frame. His work either on the camera or on the microphone has been a big influence on my own works both visual and (now with this podcast) audio.

Next to a little street photography we discuss starting projects both photo and otherwise, being a photography instructor & member of the community, and even get real about the state of gear releases and the "reviews" that follow on announcement day among other babbles.

TFL 007 - Back again & cameras we carry

Tue, 21 Aug 2018 07:09:33 +0000

Well how about that: This Photo Life podcast is back after a long time away and many distractions for yours truly! :)

I'm talking to Ian Van Landuyt about the cameras we carry and why, getting into what the camera makers are up to and where we feel things are either absolutely awesome or perhaps need some work and care. Yes: Canon & Nikon take some abuse.

Thanks for listening, drop us a line and/or share with others if you heard something you enjoyed.... Might encourage more silly babble. ;)

This Photo Life #005 - Perspectives

Wed, 01 Apr 2015 09:44:49 +0000

This time on "This Photo Life" it's thoughts on perspective and how to shake things up a little, and further news of Photo Tour Brugge 2015 that I'm hosting on April 11th.

I might even be getting used to this podcast thing and finding a rythym, that or it's all nicely going to crap... All a matter of perspective and certainly part of the fun! ;)

This Photo Life #004 - Fear of Fail

Fri, 20 Mar 2015 21:32:14 +0000

For this 3rd week of March we dip into talking about the fear of failure, something all of suffer from here and there and I'm no exception... Ah, neuroses and being human! ;)

Around fixing those foiblles (since we get into fear by going straight for solutions) there's news of the free photowalk I'm holding in Brugge on April 11th (details) and the usual featured inspiration, also of course sublime sound via Biaz.

So, still not sure if these are any good or total crap, but loving doing something new to help kick my fear in it's big turkey neck. Enjoy!

(And yes: Be Batman!!!)

This Photo Life #002 - Relationships: Mirrorless & Otherwise

Wed, 18 Feb 2015 10:08:20 +0000

This 2nd episode of This Photo Life dives into mirrorless cameras, at least as how Andy sees it. We'll talk about why you'll want to consider this format regardless of your photo experience, and offer up some Andy opinions on which brands/systems (Nikon/Canon/Olympus/Lumix/Fuji/Lieca) you may want to consider.

Then, Mrs Andy(!) drops by to chat about being in a relationship with a photographer, from hanging out on holiday through to when "it's all part of the job".

Hope you enjoy!
