Podcast appearances and mentions of david duchemin

David duChemin is a photographer, author, and adventurer whose work and words have helped countless creatives reconnect with the why behind their work, which plays perfectly into the story of this podcast. Known for his deep reflections on vision, presence, and the stories we tell with a camera, David brings a grounded honesty to conversations about creativity. He talks today about taking personal risk, his love of the wilds, his deep trust of animals and why travel is such a precious part of his life. To quote, “I don't want to go through life having only experienced the World through the pages of National Geographic, I want to see it, and touch it and smell it.” This week, I'm proud to announce something new. The Journey Beyond is a new travel venture for photographers, writers, and creatives heading to places like Mongolia, India, and beyond, not just to see, but to feel, listen, and make work that matters in an experiential way. More news on the show. Also, from your letters, Anders Ekmark shares how he silences that inner troll when self-doubt creeps in. There's a poignant farewell letter to Sebastião Salgado, penned by my friend Tomasz from Fujilove. Kelvin Brown talks about finding the courage to ask, “Can I make your portrait?” a deceptively simple but deeply human question, and Dennis Linden reminds us one more time for May, of this month's One Word Assignment. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to Arthelper, who sponsor this show, plus our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

I have a trio of guests on the show this week. Photographer, author and adventurer David duChemin joins me ahead of his full appearance next week for a shorter but powerful conversation that weaves through some of the themes we've explored on the show over the past year: presence, obsession, talent, adversity, courage, comparison, and yes, that old imposter syndrome chestnut, all with David's signature warmth and insight. My good friend, documentary photographer Giles Penfound, joins me for a walk and shares a disarming way to connect with people you might never normally speak to. If you've ever felt that knot-in-the-stomach hesitation when approaching a stranger and asking, “Can I make your portrait?”, Giles might just have the key to making those conversations feel not only possible but natural, and Valérie Jardin returns for this month's Teach Me Street, ahead of our summer recording in Paris. From the mailbag and also on the show, Robin Chun reckons he's made his picture of the year, William Leonard's been having camera bag nightmares, Paul Moore's in a derelict hospital shooting for a client while listening to our supernatural episode, and I've a story to share about how homelessness led to a walk… which led to a book… which has now become a film, out next week. If you know the story already, I hope you won't mind the revisit. It's a path worth walking again.  Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to Arthelper, who sponsor this show, plus our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week.

For our 20th episode we are delighted to welcome adventurer, award-winning photographer and best selling author David duChemin.

Having spent some time in Haiti, David was pulled back into photography and most notably Humanitarian photo journalism. He is now renowned as one of the leading experts in the field of creativity and focuses predominantly on capturing our beautiful natural world as a wildlife photographer.

A photographer and author based on Vancouver Island, Canada. With 40 years behind the camera, he's captured breathtaking moments from swimming with humpback whales in Tonga to photographing the elusive Spirit Bear in Canada's Great Bear Rainforest. His travels have spanned seven continents and 58 countries, but he prefers to immerse himself deeply in the places he visits. A former humanitarian photographer turned celebrated author, educator, and speaker, his passion lies in turning his lens toward the natural world and inspiring others to pursue a life of intention and creativity. After a life-altering accident redefined his creative journey, he has encouraged countless photographers to move beyond the rules and create images that are not only visually compelling but deeply personal. Known for his mantra, 'Gear is good, Vision is better,' he brings a refreshing perspective to the craft of photography. Along the way, he has also authored several books, and we'll dive into his latest work, Light, Space & Time: Essays on Camera Craft and Creativity, and explore how his vision continues to evolve.

In this episode of the podcast, I chat with David duChemin, a humanitarian photographer who emphasizes the importance of mastering the creative aspects of photography. David encourages us to move beyond technical perfection, focusing instead on telling compelling stories through images. THE BIG IDEASFocus on Fundamentals: Mastering the basics of exposure, composition, and manual controls will elevate your creative expression.Creativity Over Technicality: Prioritize storytelling and emotional impact over perfect technical execution to create compelling images.Explore and Experiment: Regularly experiment with different settings and compositions to discover what works best for your creative vision.Embrace Constraints: Utilize restrictions, like shooting with one lens, to sharpen your focus on composition, light, and color.PHOTOGRAPHY ACTION PLANPractice Manual Controls: Switch your camera to manual mode and experiment with different settings to understand how aperture, shutter speed, and ISO interact. Set up a series of test shots adjusting only one setting at a time, taking notes on how each adjustment affects the final image.Explore Exposure Creativity: Experiment with different combinations of aperture and shutter speed while maintaining the same exposure to see how they change the aesthetic of the image. Use exposure compensation in aperture priority mode to control the brightness of your photos creatively.Experiment with Composition: Dedicate a day to shooting the same subject from multiple angles, distances, and perspectives to understand the impact of composition. Apply the rule of thirds, leading lines, and framing techniques to your shots, comparing the results.Embrace Constraints: Challenge yourself to shoot exclusively with one lens or your smartphone for a week, focusing entirely on composition and lighting. Choose a single location and spend an extended period capturing its various features, moods, and stories.Reflect and Adjust: After each photo session, review your images and identify which ones best tell the story or evoke the intended emotion. Keep a journal of your photographic experiments, noting what worked, what didn't, and how you felt during the process.RESOURCES:Visit David duChemin's Website - https://davidduchemin.com/Follow David duChemin on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/davidduchemin/Learn What Camera Settings to Use in our free guide!https://perfectcamerasettings.com/ Start Building Your Dream Photography Business for FREE with CloudSpot Studio.

Last week, we recorded the last episode of On Taking Pictures. If you're a longtime listener, you may think you've heard this before, and you're right, you have. But this time it's different. I'll get to why in a minute, but first I need to back up. In 2008, I was teaching Photoshop at Tri-Community Photo in Covina, California. One of the other instructors and I started doing photo walks with some of the students on the weekends. As they got more popular, we put up a simple web page called Faded & Blurred that had details about the upcoming walks. It pretty quickly evolved into a full-blown site, complete with a blog, spotlights on some of our favorite photographers, and a podcast called Q&A@F&B, which was a series of long-form conversations with photographers who were willing to sit down with me for an hour and talk about their work. In addition to getting to talk with photographers like John Keatley, David duChemin, and Ibarionex Perello, I also spoke with Bill Wadman for the first time. Bill and I hit it off straight away, and in 2012, when he was thinking about doing a weekly photography podcast, he started auditioning potential co-hosts. He reached out to me and asked if I'd be interested. I said sure, and my audition ended up being the first episode of OTP. For the next 6 years and 325 episodes, my Tuesday mornings were spent recording the show, with me in Rancho Cucamonga, California—at least to start—and Bill in Brooklyn, New York.If you enjoyed this Iteration, I would love it if you would share it with a friend or two. And if it resonated with you on some level, I'd love to know why.

We live in a gear-obsessed world as photographers, with new lenses and cameras being touted as the magic solutions to improve our photography. While gear does play a role in helping us get the photographs we envision, there's so much more that goes into making quality, personally-meaningful photographs that are uniquely ours. Today's guest on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, David duChemin, is a world & humanitarian assignment photographer, best-selling author, digital publisher, podcaster, and international workshop leader based in Vancouver Island, Canada. David refers to himself as a voice for human creativity in an industry that dwells too much on the technical. On this week's episode, we discuss: David's journey as a photographer. David's inspiring books that helped me as a photographer (these are affiliate links that help the show). Defining voice and vision in photography and their importance in improving as a photographer. Creativity and tips for improving creativity as photographers. Finding inspiration as photographers. And a lot more! On Patreon this week, David duChemin shares the story behind his foot amputation and we discuss how this life-changing event has impacted his photography.

Sean and I talk about what it means to create meaningful work. Other topics are how to deal with creative challenges, venture into new projects and evolve as an artist. At the end we also tackle the question how AI might change photography. „The sooner you stop listening to the social media score, the sooner you'll be able to start on a journey to becoming a great photographer and realizing that all that stuff is pointless.“ Sean Tucker In a previous episode we talked about his book „The Meaning in the Making“.  This time we met in Cologne, Germany, where he was to give a talk about what it means to lead a creative life. And in a way that is also what we talked about in this interview. It was a real pleasure to sit down with Sean. I enjoy his philosophical way of approaching photography instead of obsessing over gear. The camera is just a tool that we have to master – but then what? Sean reminds us to ponder our reasons why we pick up a camera. He says: „What are you building and why? And think longterm!“ I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.  Half way through you'll hear a snippet of the audio that comes with the first issue of Seans new magazine called „Parable“.  In case you haven't done already – please check out Seans YouTube-Channel and get a copy of his book „The Meaning In The Making“*.  Both are tremendous resources if you want to grow as an artist and storyteller.  You find all the links in the shownotes or on the website at: https://www.gatesieben.de/podcast/sean-tucker Sean Tucker on the internet: Webseite: https://www.seantucker.photography/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/seantuckerphoto Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/seantuck/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/seantuckerphoto If you are a first time listener of the podcast and like what you here – please check out the other interviews in English.  As I mentioned there are two previous episodes with Sean.

Earlier in the week, a post came up in my Twitter feed that stopped me in my tracks before sending me down a rabbit hole that I think I may be in for a while. It was a post about a watch—or at least the possibility of a watch—by a designer named Sebastian Stapelfeldt, who publishes under the name Carl Hauser. It's a terrific 3D render that looks like something out of one of Syd Mead's sketchbooks, which is one of the reasons it caught my eye. If that reference doesn't mean anything to you, Syd was an industrial designer and illustrator who is probably best known for his work on Blade Runner and Tron. I think first discovered his work in the late 70s, about the same time that I first saw the work of Frank Frazetta. Both of these guys were huge inspirations, though Syd's influence didn't really show up in my work until the mid-90s.LINKSCarl Hauser: https://www.carlhauser.com/Carl Hauser (Twitter): https://twitter.com/crlhsrSyd Mead: https://sydmead.com/Frank Frazetta: https://www.frazettamuseum.com/Imagine 3D: https://archive.org/details/imagine-3D-for-DOSMS-DOS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS-DOSSiggraph: https://www.siggraph.org/3D Studio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autodesk_3ds_MaxSoftimage XSI: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XOxGqs0Ck8Maya: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autodesk_MayaLightwave: https://www.lightwave3d.com/Universal Studios: https://www.universalstudios.com/Blender: https://www.blender.org/Ton Roosendaal: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ton_RoosendaalBlender 1.0: https://www.blendernation.com/2020/08/21/blender-1-0-rises-again/Blender stories: https://www.blender.org/get-involved/user-stories/David duChemin: https://davidduchemin.com/David's post: https://davidduchemin.com/2023/06/having-not-gone-farther-on-regret-creativity/CONNECT WITH MEWebsite: https://jefferysaddoris.com  Twitter: @jefferysaddoris  Instagram: @jefferysaddorisSUBSCRIBESubscribe to Jeffery Saddoris: Almost Everything in your favorite podcast app to get more conversations like this.

When it comes to audience building, we tend to fall for the hype. It's all about "get a thousand clients" or "make thousands of dollars". If you've already been down that path you know that all of those methods fail spectacularly. You have to ask yourself: what works? Or rather, what are the principles that you need to be paying attention to, if you really want to get, grow and keep your audience? Let's find out with these cool concepts from photographer, David duChemin.

Creativity is iterative. It is about possibility. True creativity is about the everyday making of things; of just doing and refining until we can eventually get to our genius. Sometimes all we need is the discipline to just start. So if we can give ourselves the permission to just start with whatever terrible ideas we have, we can often get into that sought after “flow state” even sooner.  Many creatives are binary when it comes to what and how they produce work. Either it's all about inspiration and the arts, or it's sitting down and hammering out an idea. Too many of us are quick to judge a thing as good or bad. And in doing that we paralyze our process with fear of failure or looking foolish. But there is an unfiltered nature to “starting ugly” and if we own it, we can open up a variety of pathways until we get to where we want to be. But being a fulltime creative and/or self-employed means you have to wear your discipline hat. You have to have a routine in order to clear your brain and just start.  To dive deeper into how to “start ugly” I have brought back a friend and past guest, best-selling author and photographer, David duChemin. David is a leading expert in the field of creativity. His podcast and book, A Beautiful Anarchy, help him share his message with tens of thousands. Fueled by his endless creative hunger, he has built a seven-figure business with the goal of inspiring others to realize that the creative life is for everyone—not just artists. David spent the last twelve years travelling the world as a humanitarian photographer and creativity workshop instructor on all seven continents. His expertise has been profiled in magazines and podcasts including Overland Journal, Elephant Journal and The Accidental Creative.  Find out how to own your “ugly” by downloading this episode now. THE WARRIOR OF EMPATHY “Poetic over perfection.” - David duChemin Highlights - We can get to the “flow state” faster if we give ourselves the permission to start with bad ideas.  Inspiration comes from discipline. Perfection can be reframed as something that  is “complete” not something “without flaw.” If we wait until our fear goes away, we'll never get to our best work.  Perfection is not what endures. What leaves a legacy is poetic, not perfect.  “Write drunk. Edit sober.” - Hemingway Make your start automatic. Routine clears the brain and gets it ready to work.  Setting constraints around yourself to give yourself less of a chance for choice paralysis.

It’s always great to find someone who’s sincere and down to Earth. I’m talking about the kind of person who doesn’t steal the energy from a room or a group of people. A giver of energy, even. My producer (yes, I have one of those now), came across David duChemin on Instagram and reached out to him for an interview. He kindly accepted and scheduled a time to have a conversation. It was just one of those pleasant talks. I left it feeling better about the industry and the creative process and what our potential as human beings really looks like. And it felt genuine to me…no fluff, so to speak. To me, David is an optimist, and a realist as well. I can appreciate that point of view more than ever right now.

Not too long ago, I was having a conversation with David duChemin about subject as it relates to photography — specifically, some of the differences between photographs of a subject, versus photographs about a subject. It can feel like a tricky distinction but moving from one to the other can really elevate the work that you produce.Subscribe: iTunes | Pocket Casts | Overcast | RSSLINKSDaniel Rozin is an artist and professor at NYU who builds incredible mechanical mirrors out of materials like metal, wood, and even trash that respond to the viewer's movements.This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission to the moon and to mark the occasion, NASA has completely restored mission control at Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas to exactly how it was in 1969, down to period coffee mugs, ashtrays, rotary phones, and carpet to recreate it as accurately as possible.

“It's not where you go that really is the point, it's the going. It's the person you become in the going to these places.”I first spoke to David duChemin in 2009 after reading his book Within the Frame. Since then, we've recorded a number of conversations together and in addition to being a fan of both his words and his pictures, I'm proud to call him a friend. We begin the conversation talking about David's new book Pilgrims & Nomads — a body of work that has taken him nearly twelve years and multiple trips to Ethiopia and Northern Kenya to produce. As is often the case when David and I sit down, the conversation quickly seems to find its own rhythm and its own direction. CONNECT WITH DAVIDWebsite: https://davidduchemin.comTwitter: @david_duCheminInstagram: @davidducheminFacebook: @visionisbetter MUSICPlease Listen Carefully (Jahzzar) / CC BY-SA 4.0

Episode #294 of the podcast features an interview with David duChemin. Discussion topics include: Connecting to your audience, deepening creativity and becoming more curious. The post 294: David duChemin – How to deepen your creativity to connect better with your audience appeared first on Sprout Studio.

David duChemin is my guest on this episode. David is a humanitarian photographer, teacher and author. His new book is The Soul of the Camera. Today on the show we talk about his new book, why he wrote it and what he hopes readers will take away from reading it. David tells us about the photos he took in his teens and the scenic route he took to becoming the photographer he is today - a path that included  being a comedian and magician. David urges us all to go deeper in this episode of The Family Photographer.   http://www.soulofthecamera.com/   http://davidduchemin.com/   http://thefamilyphotographer.org/   Sign up for emails about the show: http://eepurl.com/cLLtQL    

Photographer, educator and author David duChemin discusses travel photography and his latest ebook, See the World.

In 2009 when photographer David duChemin released his first book Within The Frame, the former comedian had no idea what adding author to his resume would do to his career trajectory, saying “I think sometimes other people can peg that about us before we're willing to say so about ourselves.” He followed up Within the Frame with TEN, an ebook that not only inspired photographers to improve their craft without buying gear, it also helped him launch his publishing company Craft & Vision. Now, more than twenty ebooks later, David has released his eighth print book, called A Beautiful Anarchy, which eschews the genre-specific pursuit of photographic vision and instead looks to unpack the deeper levels of the creativity that drives it. In this conversation, David and I discuss how leading a creative life is about more than just making art. We also talk about motivation, intent and how we can learn to repurpose some of the fears and failures that hold us back into fuel to help us move forward. It's a fascinating conversation that I'm sure you'll love. LINKSA Beautiful Anarchy Craft & VisionQ&A@F&B Ep. 3: David duChemin Multitasking May Not Mean Higher Productivity (NPR) CONNECT WITH DAVIDWebsite: http://davidduchemin.comTwitter: @david_duCheminInstagram: @davidduchemin MUSICPlease Listen Carefully (Jahzzar) / CC BY-SA 4.0
