What the heck is this week's podcast about?

I was recently asked why I do landscape photography. I thought it was an interesting question. A simple question really. But, as I started to answer, I realized that my answer went much deeper into the reason I create me work. In this week’s podcast, I talk about the importance of why we photograph what we photograph and how I answer the question of why I am a landscape photographer. Hopefully, after listening to this episode, you will spend some time to find a meaningful answer for yourself on why you photograph the things you photograph. .

One of the questions I get asked frequently is what sort of equipment do I use to record my podcast. I have used a variety of equipment in the years that I have been recording, but here is the current list of equipment that I am using.

In conversation with Jenny Hansen Das

n this episode, I’m joined by Seattle-based fine art photographer Jenny Hansen Das for a conversation about exceptions in photography and working with galleries. Jenny’s work blends analog and digital processes, with a focus on everyday moments presented in unexpected ways. She experiments with alternative techniques like cyanotypes and image transfers, creating handcrafted, one-of-a-kind pieces. She’s also the founder of The Seattle Light Room, a community darkroom and gallery in Seattle’s Seward Park neighborhood.
