Podcast appearances and mentions of paul gero

Have you ever stepped back in your career, whether you're a visual creator or not, and thought, “Well, shit… is this it? Is this really as good as it gets? Is this what I want to be doing for the next X years of my life?” Don't worry, that's a positive thing (despite however dark night of the soul it may feel like in the moment) And, you are definitely not the only one feeling that way.In the business and corporate world, (yes I know a lot of you will bristle at the very mention of that word, but here me out) there's a really common expression or phrase that so encapsulates today's episode – “When you get to the top of the ladder you may find it is propped against the wrong wall.” Today's episode is all about examining your ladder and things aren't feeling right, knowing how to jump to the right ladder to take you to the top.Paul Gero is a portrait and wedding photographer and has been working professionally for over 35 years.Prior to creating a portrait and wedding business he was a photojournalist for two major metropolitan newspapers (The Chicago Tribune and The Arizona Republic)and photographed thousands of assignments from pro sports, business portraits, documentary stories to general assignment work. His images have been published in magazines around the world during his career.He has been a Sony Artisan of Imagery since 2014 and speaks often about Sony mirrorless cameras at professional gatherings.He and his wife Nicki run their business from their home base in Lake Mills, WI (his home state) after nearly 17 years in Southern California while raising their two children Kate and Sparky. Documenting their lives is his favorite and most personal photography project.In today's wide-ranging and beautifully encompassing episode, Paul and I explore his photographic career and transition from staff photojournalist to freelance business owner, how moving from California to Wisconsin taught him about the power of truly local visual storytelling, what mistakes younger photographers are constantly making, and how he created a beautifully simple execution of a personal project safely in the midst of a global pandemic.

I speak with Paul Gero, a former newspaper photojournalist about his neighborhood family portrait project, Portraits In The Time Of Corona. With COVID-19 pandemic affecting all of us around the world, Paul's photography project to photograph 100 families in his community speaks to his newspaper instincts to document their lives as best as he can. Following "social-distancing" guidelines as set forth by the state of Wisconsin, where he lives, Paul has embarked on an ambitious project that will serve as his community's only tangible document from these very challenging times.Learn more about Paul and his project, here - http://www.paulfgero.com/ 

Photojournalist and portrait photographer Paul Gero joins Alpha Universe editor Christopher Robinson to talk about his Portraits In The Time Of Corona project.

The setup is easy and the step up in image quality from your computer webcam is stunning. As he's making portraits from the porch, Gero has to work very fast.

The 3rd episode in a 10 day podcasting marathon!  Subscribe. In this episode, I correct a mistake I made in Episode 1 by not mentioning when it actually IS a good time to use a UV filter (glass of course). Remember, friends don’t let friends use plastic filters™. My good friend Paul Gero, a Sony Artisan of Imagery and top wedding photographer in Ladera Ranch, CA, reminded me after listening to that episode that there are some occasions when protecting that front element with a filter is a good idea. Paul shoots a lot at the beach and while glass is made of sand, you do not want sand scratching your lens. As a photojournalist, there were occasions when I had to go shoot a fire and slapped on a QUALITY glass UV filter to protect the front element of my lens from burning embers and other debris flying around. The risk of reducing contrast and the risk of lens flare was a better than having to deal with possible lens damage. Thank you Paul for pointing this out and keeping me on my toes. Check out Paul’s blog here:http://paulfgeroblog.com/blog/ For those listening before the end of 2014, if you purchase the 12-month plan for Adobe’s Creative Cloud Photography Plan, you’ll receive a $30 Amazon credit.
