My guest for this show is none other than my buddy Dave Williams, making his third appearance on the show. On the chance that you haven't seen the other two shows I did with Dave, "Aurora and the Night Sky" and "The Traveling Photographer", let me take a moment to introduce one of my favorite creatives. Dave is a travel photographer based out of London, or wherever his tricked out van happens to be parked. Yeah, you heard that correctly. Dave lives in a van called "Kofifernweh", and this van is insane - you can read about it here. He documents his travels, while photographing and writing, on his popular YouTube series "Due North", and his Aurora images from these adventures are amazing - which isn't a surprise considering he literally wrote The Complete Aurora Guide: for Travelers and Photographers. There's no question about it, Dave is one of the most adventurous people I know. Dave's work has been featured in publications and campaigns for clients including Time, National Geographic, Forbes, Boeing, Huawei, Microsoft, Triumph, Conde Nast, and Shell to name a few. He also works closely with several companies within the photography and travel industries, including Platypod, Wandrd, Litra, Drobo, Blackrapid, Passion Passport, and Lonely Planet. What has always stuck out in my mind was Dave's ability to teach others, and you can find his tutorials and writings in various places, and I have the links below, but many will know him the same way I did, his work over at KelbyOne, along with his writings for Photoshop User Magazine and ScottKelby.com. He also writes journalistic and inspirational articles for DIY Photography. He's also presented at Photoshop World Conference, The Photography Show, Russell Browns Art Directors Invitational Masterclass. Recently, I was talking to Dave and he mentioned he was doing a new workshop with another past guest and friend, Kersten Luts, who was on the show for the episode on Creative Portraits and Headshots. He calls this workshop the "Lofoten Islands Viking Photography Workshop", but it's a lot more than that. It's a portrait and landscape hybrid photography workshop deep within the Arctic Circle. There will be a Viking, epic landscapes, rugged mountains, majestic fjords, beautiful reindeer, world-renowned food, traditional red cabins, dancing aurora, and Dave and Kersten as your photo guides. I have to admit, I REALLY want to do this workshop, and I even have had other friends of mine tell me they've already signed up. Not sure I can swing it, since I already have a big vacation planned this year, but yeah, I am looking at it. Dave and Kersten were kind enough to share a discount code for you, so you can take 5% ($250) off when booking with DAVE5. The mantra Dave lives by is ‘once in a lifetime as often as you can' and so far, that's working out pretty well Join renowned travel photographer Dave Williams and me as we chat about photographing deep within the arctic circle, and his workshop in Lofoten, Norway, on this Behind the Shot.

If you've been watching the show for a while then you may have seen the "Aurora and the Night Sky" episode with Dave Williams. Dave is a travel photographer, based out of London, and one of the most adventurous people I know. More on that in a minute. I met Dave by chance a few years ago at Photoshop World. I was interviewing people in a hallway when I asked two people walking by if I could ask them some questions (they kindly said yes). What I didn't realize at the time is that it was Dave Williams and Sian Elizabeth. Before this chance meeting I was aware of Dave Williams, due to his work with KelbyOne, but I really didn't know it was him when I asked for that interview, until noticed his instructor badge. Since that time I have gotten to know Dave a bit better, and have even had the pleasure of hanging out with him at a Platypod dinner. He is one of the most knowledgable guys in the business, and yet one of the most humble. Dave's mantra is, ‘lend me your eyes and I'll show you what I see'.  I like that saying, and it sums up his work well. Dave's images take you places, and make you feel like you're there, and that work has been featured in publications and campaigns for clients including Time, National Geographic, Forbes, Boeing, Huawei, Microsoft, Triumph, Conde Nast, and Shell to name a few. He also works closely with several companies within the photography and travel industries, including Platypod, Wandrd, Litra, Drobo, Blackrapid, Passion Passport, and Lonely Planet. You can find Dave's tutorials and writings in various places, and I have the links below, but many will know him the same way I did, his classes at KelbyOne, along with his writings for Photoshop User Magazine and ScottKelby.com, and through Photoshop World. He also writes writes journalistic and inspirational articles for DIY Photography. Since that last episode, Dave's life has changed a bit. He now lives in a van he calls "Kofifernweh", and this is not a 'normal' van. Seriously, this thing is insane - you can read about it here, and take a tour of it here. While living in this van, Dave is traveling, and photographing, and writing, and doing a cool new series called Due North. Due North is a series documenting his winter mission to hit as many Nordic countries as possible. You get to follow along with Dave as he drives through some of the most photographic landscapes in the world. You can catch the show over on his YouTube channel. I'm so glad Dave has found the time to come back on the show, and for this episode we will be talking about his image of the famous Glenfinnan Viaduct. This location, and the old trains that travel it, has been seen in four Harry Potter movies, The Crown, and in many other shows and movies. Join traveling photographer Dave Williams and me as we chat about his life in a van, and as we discuss his image of the iconic Glenfinnan Viaduct, on this episode of Behind the Shot.

Is there such a thing as good or bad media? In today’s episode, we will discuss the media's influence on our daily lives, how it has affected our outlook on life and politics, and take a critical eye on how we might get stuck in media echo chambers (and ways to counteract that). We’ll end the episode with some funny and semi-embarrassing content that we also indulge in. Check your own habits and tell us what platforms you spend the most time on!

Zach Houghton knows what it means to be overworked. He quit his high-power job as a metals trader in Hong Kong to follow his curiosity and start his own business. Passion Passport is a community-based travel site that features a variety of different travel content, from personal travel stories to informative city guides. Zach shares his experiences and strategies for finding balance.

On Today’s episode we hear from Zach Glassman, the founder of Passion Passport. Zack tells of his first foray into photography while living in Hong Kong, his balance of work as both a creative and agency founder, and why he believes travel is such an important part of the human experience.

"That idea that there are walls around me never existed... There's a humanity that unites us all." - Zach Glassman Two years ago, Zach Glassman left his job in corporate finance to make travel a bigger priority in his life, and the experience he had was transformative. Rather than ever come back to play the role of the person he was before he left, just last year he founded Passion Passport, a community of storytellers, photographers, and explorers — coming together around a mutual passion for travel. Zach grew up following his father in Central America after his parents met in Guatemala, and so ongoing travel has been a normality in his life for as far back as it goes. Nowadays, the community he’s fostering is in line with you, and the listeners of this show, and I’m excited to sort of unite the tribes around a shared love of meaningful experience and exposure to the complexities of the world. What We Cover: How being born into a family that's open to new experiences helped shape Zach's principles about travel and founding Passion Passport. Zach and I dive deep to explore the heart of why travel matters and our shared philosophies around the value of experiencing the complexity of the world. What is the Bucket List initiative and how is it helping people change their lives through travel?
