Podcast by Alex Gagne
Listeners of The Photo Banter that love the show mention: every student, photographers, clay, alex, real world, depth, working, interview, honest, listen, love, thanks, always, good, great.
The Photo Banter podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in the world of photography. Hosted by Alex, this show takes listeners on a journey through the lives and work efforts of real-world photography freelancers. The interviews provide a unique insight into their experiences, from how they got to where they are to the serendipity of connections and the mistakes they've made along the way.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is its authenticity. The guests share their stories with honesty and openness, revealing both the shiny side and underbelly of their profession. They talk about the challenges they've faced, the lessons they've learned, and the passion that drives them. This provides valuable insights that can't be taught in a college classroom. It's refreshing to hear real-world photographers discussing their experiences in such a candid manner.
Another great aspect of The Photo Banter is Alex's interviewing style. He creates a comfortable and engaging environment for his guests to share their stories. His genuine interest in their work shines through in every episode. As a listener, you can hear him develop as an interviewer over time, asking insightful questions and guiding the conversation effortlessly.
The worst aspect of this podcast is hard to pinpoint because overall it offers so much value. However, some listeners may find certain episodes less relatable or relevant depending on their specific interests within photography. While there is something to learn from every guest, there may be episodes where listeners don't connect as deeply with the content.
In conclusion, The Photo Banter podcast is an invaluable resource for photographers at all stages of their careers. It provides a unique perspective on real-world photography experiences that colleges often shy away from teaching. Alex's interviewing skills create an engaging atmosphere that keeps listeners coming back for more insightful conversations with industry professionals. If you're looking for inspiration, advice, or simply want to dive into the world of photography freelancing, this podcast is a must-listen.

I really have a great deal of respect for Jennifers work as it is very vulnerable and explores topics that all humans deal with but are often not comfortable talking about. Jennifer has a new exhibit at the Leica Gallery in Boston,MA the will be up through January and she also has a upcoming workshop at the Leica Gallery in Boston,MA which will focus on documenting family , self portraiture , as well as building intentionality on ones work. I hope you enjoy this episode and thanks for listening! www.jennifermcclure.com @jmcclurephoto Jennifer's upcoming Leica Workshop https://leicacamerausa.com/artist-family-new-approaches-to-documenting-family-with-jennifer-mcclure.html
