Episode Number: 462

Dive into episode 436 of The Perceptive Photographer to explore the intertwining of camaraderie, standards, and idealism in photography. In this episode, I reflect on an owl photo adventure, revealing insights into how photographers can enhance their craft through communal experiences, precise goals, and a contagiously optimistic outlook.

Key Topics

  • Community matters in photography
  • Setting expectations can limit you
  • Positivity is infectious on shoots
  • Photography is a privileged pursuit

“That sense of idealism also was really sort of interesting because it came out and I remember one guy said something to the effect of, I’m gonna get one of the greatest shots I’ve ever gotten today.”
