THE ROADS LESS TRAVELED—Much of travel media comes with a kind of sheen to it. A gloss. Whether you are traveling Italy with a hungry celebrity or cruising Alaska in the pages of a magazine, the photos are big and Photoshopped, the text kind of breathless. And while Afar has plenty of both, it just feels a bit different. It is not a magazine that puts a focus on consumption but on feeling. On the experience of travel.Julia Cosgrove has been atop Afar's masthead from the beginning. She comes from a magazine and journalism family. And despite their warnings about the industry, she joined the family business anyway because what kid listens to their parents? When the founders of Afar Media plucked her out of ReadyMade magazine and told her that no other travel magazine felt experiential to them, she understood and joined the team.Travel media has changed a lot over the years. One has to ask what moves a media consumer more: a magazine article about a beach in Croatia or the TikToks of numerous influencers on that same beach, extolling its virtues, reaching their millions of fans?Afar doesn't care. Because it believes in its mission and marches on, now in its 15th year, inviting its readers to experience the world, by diving in.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press.

I just had my work stolen by another photographer who tried to pass it off and claim it was their own work. It all started when I received a DM from one of his past clients letting me know that this individual had my work posted on his Instagram profile and was claiming it as his own work. Sure enough, there was my work on some other photographer's account as this person was trying to pass it off as their own. In this episode of the Beyond the Image podcast, I unpack not only the immediate steps I took to get my work taken down - but how you can protect your work should any infringement happen. https://jamespatrick.com/
Anna Arendt is a photographer and visual artist living and working in Berlin whose images explore memory, silence, loss, and the invisible links between personal history and larger events. Her work often moves between personal, historical, and symbolic worlds, shot in black-and-white to capture places where the past and present meet.Anna was born in the German Democratic Republic and was 24 when The Wall fell, at which time her daughter was two. Her parents were born 1940 in Germany, children of war. Both of her grandfathers had been soldiers, who had been in Poland between 1940 and 1942. One came back 2 years after the war was over, the other one never returned.As a child Anna found a secret shelf that contained photo albums of her family. "It is where I discovered the power of a picture. A picture taken in summer 1940. A young family, my grandmother, her baby and my grandfather in a German uniform. A picture full of contradictions, carrying ambivalent feelings even today."Anna graduated with a degree in Fine Arts and Set Design and then received a one-year grant from the DAAD to study photography at the School of Visual Arts in New York. For 15 years, she worked as a set and costume designer for opera, drama, and puppet theater, collaborating with directors at theaters across Germany and Switzerland.Anna recently published her first book, Vanishing, with Charcoal Press. Photographed mostly between Germany and Poland over 15 years, the work slides back and forth through time like a blood memory. Walking naked through the dark forest, wolves circling, howling. A daughter becoming a mother becoming a grandmother becoming a child. Haunted villages, and souls in jeopardy. The harsh reality of the past merges seamlessly with moments of rapture that feel plucked from a Grimm fairy tale.Photography has now become the center of Anna's creative life. She continues to develop long-term projects that reflect her search for meaning in places marked by beauty, pain, and the mysteries of time. Alongside her artistic work, she also works with disabled people in an art workshop, sharing the joy of creative expression.In episode 260, Anna discusses, among other things:The origins of her photographyGrowing up in East GermanyBeginning to understand her family historyThe fall of the Berlin wall in 1989Being ‘connected to pictures'The importance of visiting Poland and its significance for her familyThe cast of characters in the book, including wolves…….And her friend, who sadly diedAllowing the photograph to tell her what it wants to be (and where)How Charcoal Press came to publish the bookHer collaboration with publisher Jesse LenzHaving a day job and a change of identityWhat she's currently up to in the darkroom EPISODE SPONSORS:CHARCOAL WORKSHOPS.

Did you ever think about what it might take to have a highly successful, multi-million-dollar portrait studio?My amazing guest this week, Andrew Hiorth, has done just that—and in this episode, he shares his team-building strategies, plus the joys and challenges of creating a highly profitable boudoir photography business.I was surprised to learn that not only is it easier than I thought, but that building a business where others are doing most of the work can actually give the owner time to be wildly creative with personal photography. Free from the daily grind of creating sellable images, Andrew now has space to stretch his imagination and create stunning, award-winning art.He also shares about the deep satisfaction that comes from leading a team of photographers and support staff, and watching them thrive. I love doing this as a coach, so now I see that I would actually enjoy being the boss of a group of amazing humans, all working hard toward the same goals!A little about Andrew:Andrew Hiorth is a business leader and creative visionary who built FABLE Studios into a multi-seven-figure photography brand with a team of over 20 professionals specializing in boudoir. His personal work has earned global recognition, including a PPA Diamond Award, multiple “Photographer of the Year” titles, and the honor of representing Team Canada at the World Photographic Cup. He's also a sought-after speaker, sales strategist, and business coach helping photographers scale with purpose and profit.One of my favorite moments? When he asked the powerful question:“When does the freedom start?”We also dig into:Why you should start with your whyHow to reverse-engineer your dream incomeThe importance of pacing yourself and learning along the wayWhy profit management might just be your new best friendAnd he leaves us with this gem:“Decide what you want, how you'll get it… and ask yourself if it will make you happy.”Yes, please.If you've ever dreamed of creating a business that gives you both financial and time freedom, this episode is for you.Connect with Andrew:www.fablestudios.caandrew@fablestudios.caNeed help mapping out your dream business?Let's talk! www.lucidumascoaching.comConnect with Photography Business Coach Luci Dumas: Website Email: luci@lucidumas.comInstagram FacebookYouTubeNew episodes drop every week — make sure to subscribe so you never miss an inspiring guest or a powerful solo episode designed to help you grow your photography business.

A local artist is working to humanize people living with vitiligo through photographs that use black lights to highlight the skin condition. Vitiligo is the autoimmune disorder that causes white patches to appear on the skin. And it affects almost one percent of people worldwide. Sharolyn Hagen started taking photographs of herself when she was diagnosed with vitiligo in 2016 to track the progression of her condition. But it turned into a much larger art and advocacy project. She joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about it.

Brandon Talbot is a Photographer, videographer and YouTuber who has been sharing his photography journey for some time. He loves landscapes and has recently started to print his work with an eye on books and other physical media in the future. One of the things I really like about Brendon is his growth mindset. He has previously been an athlete and he applies this sensibility to his craft and I love it. His enthusiasm is infectious, he's a lovely dude and I hope you enjoy this conversation with Brandon.More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you'll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I'm interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.
Best of 2025 So Far Part 2 (Larry Chen, Susie Wolff)
GOOD TROUBLE—Troublemakers is a magazine about society's misfits. At least from the Japanese point of view. A bilingual, English/Japanese magazine, Troublemakers came about as a way to showcase people who were different, who stayed true to themselves, or about the long road those people had taken to self-acceptance.The founders, editor Yuto Miyamoto and art director Manami Inoue, were inspired by a notion that Japanese culture perhaps did not value those who strayed too far from the herd.The magazine has been a success not just in Japan but globally, and perhaps mirrors a trend we see in streaming, for example, of a general public acceptance of universal stories from different places—gengo nanté kinishee ni. Think, especially, of the success of Japanese television and movies like Shogun or Tokyo Vice or Godzilla Minus One. Of Japanese Pop and anime and food. It's an endless list.But Troublemakers is more than just a cultural document. It is proof of something shared, a commonality of human experience that exists everywhere. Speaking to Yuto and Manami, you sense a desire—and an invitation—to connect. With everyone. And that's, ultimately, what Troublemakers tries to do.—This episode is made possible by our friends at Freeport Press. A production of Magazeum LLC ©2021–2025
Send us a textIn this episode, Angela Nicholson speaks with pioneering sports photographer Eileen Langsley, who built a remarkable career capturing the world's top athletes. From her start as a PE teacher in Sheffield to photographing 14 Olympic Games, Eileen has broken barriers and challenged outdated stereotypes through her powerful imagery.Eileen discusses how she got into photography in the 1970s and '80s, driven by the lack of strong images of women in sport. Despite facing industry-wide sexism, she persisted and became one of the most respected voices in Olympic coverage, working for organisations like the International Gymnastics Federation and covering sports from gymnastics and figure skating to rugby and athletics.She shares the skills needed to succeed in sports photography, including deep sporting knowledge, anticipation, and technical precision, and reflects on the industry's evolution over the decades. From darkroom prints to digital workflows and crowded press pits, she has seen it all and shares candid, sometimes moving reflections on her journey.This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in sports, photography, or the tenacity it takes to challenge the status quo and build a lasting legacy.TakeawaysDeep knowledge of your subject is essential – Understanding a sport improves your timing, anticipation and ultimately your imagery.Persistence pays off – Even when opportunities are few and rejection is common, staying the course can lead to a rewarding career.Preparation isn't just technical – Scouting angles, understanding athlete routines and watching warm-ups are all part of the process.You can't rely on equipment alone – Great photography comes from timing, skill and creative vision, not just the latest camera gear.Visibility matters – Creating honest, respectful imagery of women in sport helps shift perceptions and challenge stereotypes.Your attitude counts – Professionalism, humility, and being a good colleague are as important as the images you produce.Connect with EileenWebsiteBooksSupport the show

You can contact me here: rick@ricksaez.com Show Notes WHAT HAPPENED – Personal Story: There I was, deep in the Amazon, camera in hand, soaking in this explosion of color—bright blue water, rusty orange clay, jungle green overhead, and that soft golden light photographers dream about. The kind of scene that doesn't just ask to be photographed—it demands it. So what did I do? I lined up my shot, textbook rule-of-thirds style. Sky in the top third, water in the bottom, everything “perfect.” But something felt… off. That's when I said screw it, let's break some rules. I shifted the frame. Horizon smack in the middle. My boat creeping in from the corner, becoming this perfect leading line. It looked weird… until it didn't. Until it looked just right. It was one of those rare, unrepeatable moments. In five minutes, the light would shift, the river would curve, and that magic scene? Gone forever. But because I trusted my eye over the rulebook, I got the shot—and every time I look at it, I feel that moment again. PRINCIPLE: Here's the thing—creative freedom doesn't mean ignoring the rules; it means understanding them well enough to know when to ditch them. Composition is a tool, not a cage. The rule of thirds, leading lines, all that jazz? It's there to guide your storytelling, not police it. Your camera is just the vehicle. You're the driver. TRANSITION: But so many of us get stuck. Not because we're not “creative enough,” but because we cling to the rules like a safety blanket. We're afraid to break out of the grid and trust our own visual instincts. And let's be honest—most beginner photographers aren't struggling because they don't have the gear. They're struggling because they're trapped by formula, instead of finding their own rhythm. THAT'S WHY: That's why this episode with Sergio is a breath of fresh, Amazonian air. We dive into composing wild spaces with intention, not restriction. We explore how to blend intuition with technique so your photos tell your story, not just the story the rulebook approves of. CALL TO ACTION: Tired of taking “technically correct” photos that still feel flat? Frustrated when your shots don't match what you felt in the moment? Listen to this episode now and start capturing the kinds of images that make people stop and feel something
As a teenager, Marty “Meatman” Sosnowski of Green Bay, Wisconsin never felt like he fit in. He stopped trying to by not going to school. At the time, he didn’t feel like school was right for him. Years later, he realized the importance of getting an education, no matter what he was interested in. He talked about this with his sister, Lynne Williamson, during a StoryCorps Mobile Tour stop in Green Bay on Aug. 18, 2023.

Hope isn't a booking strategy. If you're posting “Book now!” and getting crickets, it's probably not because your work isn't good enough…but you don't have a dialed Social Funnel yet.In this episode, we break down the Social Funnel we use in our own businesses that consistently brings in new leads like clockwork:
“The only one that cares about the extra five pounds you put on is you…Everybody in your life…should want to enjoy your presence and your photos.” For many women, having their picture taken is an excruciating experience; it's something they'd do anything to avoid. That intense self-criticism is something that portrait photographer Elizabeth Snyder wanted to address. So, a few years back, she shifted to a unique speciality. Working primarily with women aged 35 years and up she's developed a thoughtful, step-by-step process that's about learning to see yourself differently and letting go of shame.The results are extraordinary because the thing that makes Elizabeth, the perfect person to help these women overcome their doubt are the incredible trials and tribulations she's endured on her own path to self-fulfillment. About ElizabethElizabeth is a portraiture artist, confidence expert, and workshop leader passionately committed to helping women feel their best. She has helped hundreds of women feel comfortable in front of the camera. Elizabeth has been exploring photography for the last 33 years, starting with working in her family's darkroom at age eight. Since then, she's won many awards for her artistry, including the Portrait Masters competitions, the Castellani Art Museum's 20/20 vision: Women Artists in Western New York Exhibition, the Wedding Wire Couples Choice award, and the Top 10 Photographers in Buffalo through Expertise.

What if tuning into your body could unlock more creativity, clarity, and connection in your photography work? In this heartfelt episode, I'm joined by photographer and podcast host Danika, for a free-flowing conversation on the role that movement and mindfulness play in helping us stay grounded, inspired, and intentional — both behind the lens and in life. We talk about what movement looks like beyond exercise — how it helps photographers regulate energy, access joy, and stay present in high-pressure moments. From puddle-jumping in the rain to mindful post-wedding workflows, Sara shares powerful insights on staying connected to your body and creativity. Our conversation took some personal turns as we reflected on birth and motherhood, marveling at how capable and wise our bodies truly are. It all tied back to the episode's theme: the importance of listening inward. The conversation flowed as if we'd known each other for years, and Sara brought so much depth, intention, and practical wisdom. In this episode, we explore: — How to use movement as a reset before, during, and after photo sessions and weddings. — Embodied mindfulness and what that actually looks like in a creative business.— Playful movement practices that reignite creative energy.— The value of slowing down, trusting your body, and redefining productivity.If you're a photographer or creative who wants to feel more present, intentional, and creatively fueled, this episode will meet you right where you are.
