Photography with Katie Orlinsky: National Geographic Photographer on Vanishing Caribou, Managing Solitude, Obsession, Endurance, and Working the Edge of the Arctic.National Geographic photographer Katie Orlinsky has spent the past decade documenting life in the Arctic, a place where climate, culture, and survival are all intertwined. Her latest exhibition, Vanishing Caribou, now showing at the Natural History Museum in Siena, Italy, captures the heartbreaking decline of Arctic caribou and the Indigenous communities whose lives depend on them. In this conversation, we talk about how she built the project, the balance between beauty and loss, and what it means to tell stories that help the world see differently.We also explore Katie's creative evolution, from covering conflict zones in Latin America to photographing the far north, and how solitude, obsession, and endurance have shaped her work. She shares lessons on risk-taking, avoiding burnout, and finding hope in a world that often feels like it's slipping away.

In this mindset-focused episode of Cowgirls with Cameras, we're getting real about the mistakes that taught us the most — and how they changed the way we think, work, and show up as photographers. Kim opens up about the trap of people-pleasing and the importance of setting realistic expectations with clients, even when it feels uncomfortable. Cara shares the story of an entire day of holiday mini-sessions gone wrong thanks to a broken lens, and how that moment redefined her understanding of professionalism — learning that recovery builds more trust than perfection ever could. Phyllis reflects on a painful early-career lesson about protecting her work and setting clear boundaries after a client used her images without permission, and how that experience reshaped her approach to contracts and communication. Together, we explore how the biggest growth in our photography businesses often comes from the hardest lessons — and why mistakes, handled with honesty and intention, can become our greatest teachers.

AN ELEGY FOR THE ELITE—Michael Grynbaum is a correspondent for The New York Times, where he has covered media, politics, and culture for 18 years. He's reported on three presidential campaigns, two New York City mayors—they're always so boring—and the transformation of the media world in the Trump era. He lives in Manhattan and he's a graduate of Harvard.His first book, Empire of the Elite: Inside Condé Nast, the Media Dynasty that Reshaped America, was published by Simon & Schuster in June, 2025. In the book, Michael chronicles the origins of the company, its go-go boom days in the eighties and nineties, and its more recent post-print transformation into whatever Condé Nast is these days. We'll figure that out later.Michael's bestseller captured a lot of attention when it was published—it's a bestseller and it's the latest in the line of books by and about Condé Nast magazine makers—full of great anecdotes and good stories. The kind of stuff we love here on Print Is Dead (Long Live Print!), and it's extremely readable.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Commercial Type and Freeport Press.

In this heartwarming and insightful episode of For All the Marblisms, Bart welcomes Chicago-based photographer and creative professional Will Byington. Together, they explore the intersection of creativity, resilience, entrepreneurship, and authenticity, highlighting the struggles and successes that shape a meaningful career.Will's story is not just about capturing photos—it's about capturing life, emotion, and connection while navigating the evolving demands of being a creative entrepreneur in a digital age. Will's Journey: From Film Cameras to Rock CruisesEarly spark: Will grew up with disposable cameras and one-hour photo labs, enchanted by the magic of capturing candid moments.Education & pivot: A single darkroom photography class at the University of Alabama deepened his love for the craft.Unexpected detour: He pursued marketing in Los Angeles, working briefly in film promotion—but after a disheartening year, he returned home, feeling defeated.The turning point: A chance meeting with the New Orleans band Cowboy Mouth led to a touring role managing merchandise and photographing the band—his entry into professional photography.Today: Over 21 years later, Will has photographed 172 entertainment cruises for major artists like Bon Jovi, Kesha, and Pitbull, and works with brands like Sixthman and ALG Vacations.Entrepreneurial Lessons & Insights Success Requires Failing Forward“You're not an entrepreneur if you don't fail. You have to throw things atthe wall and learn.”It's Not About the Photos—It's About the FocusWill credits his success to being part of the experience, not just documenting it. His empathy, professionalism, and genuine care make him unforgettable.“I'm not there to be paparazzi. I'm there to capture the experience without blocking someone else's joy.”The Power of Showing UpWhether introducing himself to fans before a cruise or helping someone improve their phone photos, Will emphasizes presence, humility, and joy.“Life is 80% showing up. And when you do, bring energy and curiosity.”Imposter Syndrome Is UniversalWill admits that self-doubt once kept him from teaching photography, fearinghe'd train away his own clients. He now sees teaching as empowering:“Rising tides lift all boats. Helping others doesn't take from you—it expands you.”Creativity Requires Business BalanceWill shares that being a freelancer means juggling roles—creative, legal, financial, HR, and marketing—all at once.“Being a photographer is 90% business, 10% creativity. AI tools like Marblism help us flip that balance.” AI, Efficiency & CreativityBart introduces Marblism, an AI-powered productivity assistant for entrepreneurs. Will reacts with curiosity and cautious optimism, seeing potential to regain time for creativity.“If human interaction doesn't make it better, let AI do it.” — Bart“I'm on the AI train… maybe still in the caboose—but learning.” — Will Key Themes & TakeawaysResilience: Moving from failure to reinvention.Curiosity over fear: Asking questions to connect and learn.Joy & authenticity: Leading with positivity in every environment.Focus: Erase “you” to make the experience about others.Gratitude & presence: Print your photos, share them, and celebrate moments.Closing Reflections Will and Bart reflect on how creativity and kindness intersect:“It's not about the coffee—it's about the people.”“It's not about the photos—it's about the focus.”Will reminds listeners to capture and print their memories, because physical photos hold emotional power.“Print your pictures. Hold them. Share them. You never know how much they'll mean someday.” Connect with WillWebsite: willbyington.comInstagram: @willbyingtonLinkedIn: Will ByingtonClasses: shotclubphotoclass.com Final Quote “We're never finished. We're evolving, learning, and sharing.We are living our dream while chasing our dream.” — Will Byington

I had the very dynamic Knox Kronenberg on today. He's a fine art photographer and he's got a really interesting story. He's pushing the envelope and he's only 27, but it feels like he's 40. Knox has really found his niche. We're talking about major endeavors. It's like doing directing a movie. I mean, he can spend up to $70,000 on a single shot. He has a  clear vision, especially for as young as he is. It's really interesting to see how utterly and completely focused a guy like Knox can be. He sees who he is and what he wants to forge his legacy. I think when you're that driven at that age you're going to be successful.Looking at some of the shots that he shared with me, it's just beautiful, amazing work. He's a classic artist in that he lives to create. He is a storyteller who also happens to be a fine artist with a camera. So yeah, I like Knox. He's a very nice, animated, gifted individual. I genuinely think he's one of those that you'll look back at this podcast and go, oh, yeah, that was an important guy and he was young when he did that. That's how it felt for me at least and I'm glad I get to be a part of that history.Anyhow, this is storyteller Knox Kronenberg on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 369. I hope you enjoy.

Photographer and visual storyteller Ilan Sánchez captures more than moments — he captures meaning. Through analog film photography, street portraits, and honest connection, his work explores how slowing down helps us truly see people, not just pass by them. From Mexico City to Oaxaca, Ilan builds community through art that gives back instead of taking, documenting culture, identity, and everyday life with intention. Born and raised in Oaxaca, he offers a rare local perspective on how the city's sudden global spotlight — from mezcal to design and tourism — is reshaping its creative and cultural landscape. This conversation dives deep into street photography, creative process, authenticity, and the future of art in a world that moves too fast.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/globetrotters-podcast--5023679/support.

Mike Delevante recently released his debut album, September Days, on Truly Handmade Records, a label founded by Guy Clark LLC's board of directors (including Grammy-winning author, producer, and filmmaker Tamara Saviano, who fell in love with the album at first listen). Not many artists release their first solo record two decades after their debut album but that's the case for Delevante, who spent the 1990s recording and touring as half of trailblazing Americana duo the Delevantes with his older brother Bob. The duo's acclaimed releases on Rounder and Capitol records in that era made a splash — Long About That Time (Rounder) was the first #1 debut album on Gavin's newly created Americana radio chart —and found them touring with like-minded artists including John Prine, Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Levon Helm and others. So, while it's hardly the first musical endeavor for Delevante, September Days is an important step for a musician who'd never put the spotlight directly on himself, until now. Produced by Joe Pisapia, whose production credits include work with Ben Folds, Guster, k.d. lang and many others, the album's shimmering guitars and instantly memorable melodies recall some of the 90's best guitar pop artists (Matthew Sweet, Freedy Johnston, Ron Sexsmith, The Jayhawks and more).  That decision was a long time coming. The Delevante brothers were New Jersey natives who've made Nashville their home since the ‘90s, along with frequent collaborator and co-producer, Garry Tallent of the E Street Band. Mike had shifted gears, focusing on visual arts. Both he and his brother had studied art in college, with Bob also turning more toward visual projects in the 2000s, but Bob had also made three solo records along the way. It was Tallent who got the brothers back into music. He'd enlisted them to sing on his 2019 solo album More Like Me, then invited them to be part of a live show he was doing in Asbury Park with Southside Johnny and special guest Bruce Springsteen. They had such a blast that “I felt myself getting pulled back into it,” Mike says. The result was 2021's A Thousand Turns. Its instantly appealing melodies and trademark sibling harmonies were a welcome return to form for the duo, whose mix of country and rock flowed naturally from brothers who came of age in New Jersey before moving to Nashville.https://www.instagram.com/michaeldelevante/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/mike.delevante/https://mikedelevante.bandcamp.com/album/september-days"Still on the Run" - https://www.fbrmusic.com/@treymitchellphotography @feeding_the_senses_unsensoredfacebook.com/profile.php?id=100074368084848www.threads.net/@treymitchellphotographyftsunashville@gmail.com
