Lucas Passmore + Chris Shintani
KA-BOOM! Photographer Jared Kocka joins us via Zoom from NYC on the eve of his new book release on June 15th! No time for Lucas's bad jokes that fall flat, we dive right into Jared's transition from LA to NYC and key differences he's observed between the coastal industries. We then talk about the inspiration and themes that went into creating Jared's first compendium photo book -- and later, Lucas rants on the insulting reduction of "female versus male gaze" in photography and art.

Unsung hero and mega executive producer Lupe Santiago takes us to Excel School and breaks down all the things that go into the nitty gritty of production. We track her journey from crossing the border into the US as a child, to her first job in the industry as a sample coordinator, and through her time at one of the best studios in LA (and the country) Industrial Color. Q&A: the importance of work/life balance, pros and cons of being a producer, and how to get hired by her. Dry January is over -- time to undo it all! Shintani, meet me at Tony's!

Mr. Biggie Big-Time celebrity and advertising photographer Randall Slavin talks about how his transition from actor to photographer fueled his meteoric rise as a Los Angeles photography vanguard.

Full disclosure: this is a heavy gear-talk episode, so it's either going to be nerd-boner city for you, or a holistic sleep-aid. Either way, we're glad you're here!

The House of Shouse is open and welcomes all listeners! Photographer Matt Shouse talks early small-town dreams for Tinsel Town as well as his formative years as a photo assistant before breaking out on his own.

Marco has landed! One of the most prolific stylists in Los Angeles comes ready to share his story and methods, only to then just watch Shintani and Lucas get SUPER drunk. We also manage to ask him questions, and Lucas gets way too passionate trying to understand what makes Marco, Marco. If you're a photog, this episode gets you inside the head of a working stylist. If you're an aspiring stylist, try to power-through the slurred questions from the hosts, because Marco gives great answers and advice!

Literally the best episode on the biz (in LA) that you'll ever hear…and it's only episode 4! Industry icon and producer Lil Kim (Kim Tran) does a free master class on what it takes to make it in the production side of fashion— do NOT miss the Q&A. Lucas also totally forgets meeting Lil Kim for the first time (thank you Smashbox) and Shintani gets fired up about permits (clients: pay the extra $400!). This is a long one, but worth its weight in solid gold, we promise.

Quite possibly LA's hardest working fashion photographer— and now studio co-owner, Alex Stone commutes an entire two blocks down Santa Fe Ave to join us for episode 2. We delve into his backstory, the founding and business model of Hyperblack Studios, going freelance, and wrap up with listener questions.
