Greg has shot over 70 covers for Time Magazine and he has also photographed major advertising campaigns for clients including American Express, Ford, Guinness, Merrill Lynch, Nike, Pfizer and Reebok. Gregory is the recipient of the Alfred Eisenstaedt Award and the Leica Medal of Excellence. His book, 50 Portraits, is one of the all-time great volumes on the subject of portrait photography, giving a sharp yet human insight to the process of making editorial portrait photographs. Greg is probably my favourite photographer ever and spending this time with him was one of the absolute highlights of my career. I tried to play it cool on the call but inside I was totally freaking out. The reason I'm such a big fan of Greg's work isn't because of who he has photographed, it's because of how he has produced absolutely beautiful photographs consistently, under high pressure for massive clients in shoots that usually last just a few minutes. For me, when you're doing photography for free, it's EASY. But when you're shooting a world leader or an A-list star for the cover of an international magazine and you've 5 minutes to do it, knowing that there are probably a thousand photographers ready and willing to take your place if you mess up, that's pressure, and for Greg to do it consistently for decades without leaning on a trademark style, technique or gimmick but by creating an array of unique photographs every time, it's phenomenal. Greg's expertise, experience and enthusiasm pour out in this conversation and you're going to hear a master craftsman lift the lid on what goes into making great portraits as well as some amazing anecdotes, an insight into the gear he used over the years and his thoughts on the current state of the photography industry. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Gregory Heisler.

    My guest this week is Stefano Pellegrini, an astrophotographer based in Milan, Italy. Stefano only started astro photography in 2019 but during the pandemic in 2020, he was able to spend more time on his photogrpahy . The progress he made during this time led him to reprioritise his life, leaving a staff job as a designer for drinks company Di Sarono, to go freelance so he could devote more time to his photography. Since then, he's won Nasa's Astronomy Picture of the day and launched a series of tutorials which you can find on his website - link in show notes.Stefano shoots technically difficult images in remote and dangerous location combining techniques like Panoramic photography, long exposure photography and light painting which gives him hundreds of photographs that he combines into 1 final, stunning image in processing. Although the work is challenging and technical, Stefano's images have heart and a human touch which is fuelled by Stefano's combination of passion, creativity, craftsmanship and and dedication. If you're into this kind of photography, you're going to take so much away from this - if you're not, you're going to learn a few things and meet a fantastic, young photographer who's just at the beginning of what is sure to be an incredible photography journey.

Wendy's work is unrestricted and playful and she uses different techniques to interpret the landscape, creating images that to evoke an emotional connection with the viewer.  Wendy got her first camera as a child but she went deeper into her photography during the pandemic when forced isolation gave her the opportunity to build a relationship with the landscape in her local area and fast-tracked her development as a photographer. Wendy is one of my favourite landscape photographers right now and this is definitely one of my favourite conversations I've had on the podcast.

    Kristy Ashton is a portrait photographer who was born in Australia but now lives and works in Scotland. Kristy's great great great grandfather was George Washington Wilson, one of the pioneers of outdoor photography who photographed Queen Victoria and John Brown in 1863 - so her connection to photography and to Scotland runs deep. Kristy's unique style is a culmination of a number of ingredients from her personal journey - an innate sense of creativity, a romantic dream of scotland and a love of renaissance painters resulting in images that are somehow otherworldly and completely authentic all at the same time. Our conversation covers Kristy's road to Scotland, the ups and downs of running a photography business through a global pandemic, why Merinos are my favourite kind of sheep and much much more - here's my conversation with Kristy Ashton.

Ulla has published a coffee-table book about the Dolomite Mountains for National Geographic and a text book about realizing her dreams. She is ambassador for Canon, Eizo, Manfrotto and F-Stop. She is an elected member of the German Photographic Society and she has been appointed as a fellow of the Explorer's Club in New York. Ulla also conducts workshops and photograohy  expeditions to active volcano sites around the world A child of 2 teachers, her imagination and curiosity were always encouraged and when she won a national science competition as a teenager, she used the winnings to fund her first trip around the world - and she's never looked back. Her dream, to descend into heart of an active volcano, was inspired by reading Jules Verne as a child and her film Spitting Distance, which follows the fulfilment of this dream, is one of the most gripping things I've ever seen. As intense as that is, as our conversation continues, you'll see that there are other parts of Ulla's journey which are even more emotional. If you're a regular listener,  you can probably tell I was al little nervous on this one - I was very excited to be talking with Ulla but also a little on edge because I knew I'd be asking some very personal questions so bare with me for that. This is a fascinating conversation covering curiosity, loss, family, forgiveness, healing and even a little bit about photography. Trigger Warning - the theme of suicide comes up in this episode.

    Karen Waller - Vulnerability and Strength

    Karen Waller is a photographer based in Adelaide, South Australia. It was Karen's ICM images of agave plants that first caught my eye but digging into her portfolio I found she's also a fantastic aerial photographer and an accomplished portrait photographer with an amazing and diverse portfolio. Karen's creative journey started in childhood when she was encouraged to draw and paint and she went on to gain a degree in Visual Arts. Although photography has become her chosen medium, her work is still informed by the painter within.  Karen's courageous curiosity has shaped a photographer who's work is quite unique and our conversation covers how she discovered ICM photography, how she has been able to use photography to get through difficult times, how she approaches new portrait subjects in the supermarket as well as the stories behind some of her most memorable photographs. I loved meeting Karen, I hope you do too.

    Julia Redl is a landscape photographer from Lake Constance in Germany. Julia has become one of my favourite landscape photographers over the last year or so for her minimalist landscapes, her thoughtful, intimate, close ups and her photographs of moving water. Julia's images always create some kind of mood and her use of composition almost creates a sense of motion, causing your eye to move around the frame.  We talk about her recent trip to Lofoten in Norway, photographing in the rain, photographing in the desert, what she learned from tailoring that applies to her photography, persistance and so much more. There's a lot to take way from this thoughtful photographer who has a really unique eye.

    George Steinmetz is a documentary photographer based in New Jersey, who has shot more than 40 major photo essays for National Geographic. He has won three prizes from World Press Photo, the Environmental Vision award from Pictures of the Year, a citation from the Overseas Press Club, he was named National Geographic's Adventurer of the Year in 2008 and he has a 1 million strong following on Instagram. George is best know for his aerial photography, mainly using a motorised paraglider, which enables him to capture unique images of places inaccessible by traditional aircraft. His restless curiosity for the unknown drove him to hitchhike across Africa as a young man and has been the drive behind his epic body of work which covers remote landscapes, climate change and global food supply.  George's work has huge scope and scale and our conversation touches on a few of George's long-term projects, how and why he got into aerial photography and how he was almost shot with an arrow. It's a real privilege to have George on the show and I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Show Notes Thank you to our sponsor, MPB.

He spends all day outdoors through his day job, working for Forestry and Land Scotland, helping to manage Scotland's woodlands. I was curious as to how this influences his landscape photography and we also talk about his experiences in Lofoten in Norway as well as his commissioned work for clients including Maserati and Amazon.

We talk about the making of the book, about how his background in advertising and graphic design informs his photography, what he's thinking when he looks through the viewfinder, the stories behind some of his photographs and much much more. It's always great to hear the thoughts of people who are the best at what they do in any field and Marsel is undoubtedly one of THE best nature photographers working today.

    Nikola Kostic - Cultures in Transition

    Nikola Kostic is a travel and documentary photographer and film maker based in Indonesia. Nikola moved to Bali in 1998 from his home country of Serbia and fell into photography when his uncle asked him to photograph some jewellery. He quickly found himself as a busy, commercial photographer as Bali transitioned from a sleepy island to a bustling tourist hotspot. Nikola's work is incredibly diverse featuring portraits, food, dance, interiors, cityscapes, golf courses and much more. All of this experience pours into his latest project - making a documentary film about the construction of the first sustainable, zero waste island in south east Asia, which is being developed by his wife, a lady who also builds luxury yachts. I really enjoyed meeting Nikola - he's such a passionate and interesting guy who is a great story teller and a fantastic photographer. The conversation features some ‘not safe for work' language so out your headphones on and enjoy my conversation with Nikola Kostic. Show Notes Thank you to our sponsor, MPB.

    Scott Hargis, based in Oakland, California, is one of Americas finest Architecture and Interior Photographers. After being burned out in a corporate job Scott took up photography in his mid 30s, eventually niching in to real estate photography before specialising in architecture and interiors. Our conversation covers how Scott creates photographs the FEEL the way a room feels, as well as really digging into some of the nuances of how he works like the importance of including a human element, chiaroscuro, visual acoustics and why he carries a makeup mirror with him at all times. For me, as a working, assignment photographer I LOVED this conversation and hearing how Scott combines his impressive technical skills with an ability to communicate emotionally through his photography was truly inspiring to me.

    Gregory Heisler - Making Authentic Portraits

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 8, 2021 89:53


    Gregory Heisler is a portrait photographer based in Syracuse, New York who has photographed Bill Clinton, George H Bush, George W Bush, Mikhail Gorbachev, Yasser Arafat, Benjamin Netanyahu, Michael Bloomberg, Rudy Giuliani, Bruce Springsteen, Chinua Achebe, Denzel Washington, Mick Jagger, Partick Stewart, Al Paccino, Hugh Grant, Tim Burton, Joni Mitchell, Liam Neeson, Muhammad Ali, Carl Lewis, Shaquille O'Neal, Bill Gates, Bono and countless more household names for publications like Life Magazine, GQ, Esquire, Rolling Stone, ESPN, New York Times Magazine. Greg has shot over 70 covers for Time Magazine and he has also photographed major advertising campaigns for clients including American Express, Ford, Guinness, Merrill Lynch, Nike, Pfizer and Reebok. Gregory is the recipient of the Alfred Eisenstaedt Award and the Leica Medal of Excellence. His book, 50 Portraits, is one of the all-time great volumes on the subject of portrait photography, giving a sharp yet human insight to the process of making editorial portrait photographs. Greg is probably my favourite photographer ever and spending this time with him was one of the absolute highlights of my career. I tried to play it cool on the call but inside I was totally freaking out. The reason I'm such a big fan of Greg's work isn't because of who he has photographed, it's because of how he has produced absolutely beautiful photographs consistently, under high pressure for massive clients in shoots that usually last just a few minutes. For me, when you're doing photography for free, it's EASY. But when you're shooting a world leader or an A-list star for the cover of an international magazine and you've 5 minutes to do it, knowing that there are probably a thousand photographers ready and willing to take your place if you mess up, that's pressure, and for Greg to do it consistently for decades without leaning on a trademark style, technique or gimmick but by creating an array of unique photographs every time, it's phenomenal. Greg's expertise, experience and enthusiasm pour out in this conversation and you're going to hear a master craftsman lift the lid on what goes into making great portraits as well as some amazing anecdotes, an insight into the gear he used over the years and his thoughts on the current state of the photography industry. I hope you enjoy my conversation with Gregory Heisler.

Marc's work has been published in National Geographic, The British Journal of Photography, The Times, the Telegraph, Wired and he's exhibited his work round the UK and Europe.  Marc's latest project, A Wounded Landscape, bears witness to the Holocaust through the stories of 22 Holocaust survivors. It was shot over 6 years at 160 locations through out Europe and features over 350 photographs. We talk in depth about this project, the logistics of it, the challenges and sensitivities around it, the importance of continuing to talk about the Holocaust and how the process of making this work changed Marc as a person.  We also touch on Marc's other work, The Last Stand, which documents the physical remnants of Second World War defence structures and their place in the landscapes that surround them. It's fascinating conversation with a thoughtful, sensitive and articulate photographer and I feel very privileged to share it with you.

Niall is probably best known for his photographs of plants and animals using a field studio to create unique and beautiful images which are reminiscent the kind of illustrations you'd find in an old encyclopaedia or field guide.  Our conversation covers Niall's upbringing, his early awareness of environmentalism, his varied career, the rhythms of creativity and much more.

    Kai Hornung is a landscape and fine art photographer from Hanover. Germany, who won the 2020 International Landscape Photograph of the Year just a few years after getting serious about photography. Kai has a great approach to his photography and as a relative newcomer he's not constrained by established ways of thinking and allows himself to be very free, creatively.  We talk about how trip to Ireland opened Kai's eyes to landscape photography how and why he leaves images open for interpretation, looking for new pictures in well known locations, the parallels between music and photography and much much more. Usually I like to change topic from one episode to the next but I thought this followed on so nicely from conversation with Paul Sanders last week so if you enjoyed that you're going to love this.

    Paul Sanders: Mindful Photography

    Paul Sanders is a landscape photographer based in Kent, England. Paul is a former picture editor for the Times newspaper, a job that engulfed his life and, in his words, made him lose touch with reality. When the demands of the job forced him to step away, Paul looked to landscape photography to help rediscover a balance in his life and he now specialises in mindful landscape photography, an approach that emphasises slowing down and focusing on the process of creating the photograph rather than on the photograph itself. This approach has resonated with a lot of people and Paul now runs mindful photography workshops and retreats for his own ‘Discover Still' brand and also for leading photography workshop company Ocean Capture. Our conversation delves into Paul's backstory at the Times which really gives context for the landscape work he's doing now. We also talk about his approach to his work, imposter syndrome, shooting in a square format and much more. I really enjoyed talking with Paul and I appreciate his openness in our conversation. If you are interested in landscape photography, mental health, meditation then there's something in this episode for you.

When I first saw Grég's work I reached out to him immediately and I found Greg to be a really interesting guy who puts a lot of thought to his photography.  Show Notes Support Gregory at the following links:  Greg's Instagram - http://www.instagram.com/photo_in_moz (www.instagram.com/photo_in_moz) Connect with me at the View Finders web page where you can get my free long exposure tutorial video: http://www.view-finders.co.uk (www.view-finders.co.uk)    Also at: http://www.instagram.com/viewfinderspodcast (www.instagram.com/viewfinderspodcast)  http://www.youtube.com/5minutephotography (www.youtube.com/5minutephotography)  http://www.facebook.com/grahamdargiephotography (www.facebook.com/grahamdargiephotography)  http://www.grahamdargie.com (www.grahamdargie.com)  Tickets for the next View Finders Live Online Event: https://www.grahamdargie.com/events (https://www.grahamdargie.com/events)  Additional show links: Double Exposure: My choice - Boy in the sand - https://www.instagram.com/p/B-T_iusFSGD/ (https://www.instagram.com/p/B-T_iusFSGD/ ) Greg's choice - kids by the roadside - https://www.shibuiandco.com/shibui-paper-planes/2019/8/31/gregoryescande-photographer (https://www.shibuiandco.com/shibui-paper-planes/2019/8/31/gregoryescande-photographer) Equipment: Nikon D850 - https://www.nikonusa.com/en/nikon-products/product/dslr-cameras/d850.html (https://www.nikonusa.com/en/nikon-products/product/dslr-cameras/d850.html) Sigma Art Lenses - https://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/art (https://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/art)  Nikon 85mm f/1.8 lens - https://www.nikon.co.uk/en_GB/product/nikkor-lenses/auto-focus-lenses/fx/single-focal-length/af-s-nikkor-85mm-f-1-8g (https://www.nikon.co.uk/en_GB/product/nikkor-lenses/auto-focus-lenses/fx/single-focal-length/af-s-nikkor-85mm-f-1-8g)  Tamron 70-200mm lens - https://www.tamron.eu/lenses/sp-70-200mm-f28-di-vc-usd-g2/ (https://www.tamron.eu/lenses/sp-70-200mm-f28-di-vc-usd-g2/) Godox AD300 - http://www.godox.com/EN/Products_Outdoor_Flash_AD300Pro.html (http://www.godox.com/EN/Products_Outdoor_Flash_AD300Pro.html)  Godox Softboxes - http://www.godox.com/EN/Products_Studio_Accessories_Softbox.html (http://www.godox.com/EN/Products_Studio_Accessories_Softbox.html)  Photographers: Diane Arbus - https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/diane-arbus-5271 (https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/diane-arbus-5271 ) Nan Goldin - https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/nan-goldin-2649 (https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/nan-goldin-2649)  Cindy Sharman - https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/cindy-sherman-1938 (https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/cindy-sherman-1938)  Ali Jeb - https://www.instagram.com/alijeb23/ (https://www.instagram.com/alijeb23/)  Musician: Hugh Masekela - https://youtu.be/qxXZF60EPdM (https://youtu.be/qxXZF60EPdM)  Book: Les Misrables by Victor Hugo - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Miserables-Leather-bound-Classics-Victor-Hugo/dp/1626864640/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2X5AH8BNBXI60&dchild=1&keywords=les+miserables+book&qid=1614678015&sprefix=les+mis%2Caps%2C178&sr=8-1 (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Miserables-Leather-bound-Classics-Victor-Hugo/dp/1626864640/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2X5AH8BNBXI60&dchild=1&keywords=les+miserables+book&qid=1614678015&sprefix=les+mis%2Caps%2C178&sr=8-1)  Waiting for Godot by Samuel Becket -...
