331: Dorin Bofan - Capturing the Landscapes of Transylvania as a New Dad


Listen Later

Mixing family and photography isn't always easy.  Today's guest on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, Dorin Bofan, recently became a new father and has been grappling with the realities of spending less time in the field as a landscape photographer. Dorin is based in Romania, deep in the heart of Transylvania, and makes personally-expressive images of his home country. 

On this week's episode, we discuss:

  • How Dorin got into photography.
  • What it is like living in Transylvania as a landscape photographer.
  • Dorin's approach to making more personally-expressive images.
  • The differences between documentary photography and nature photography.
  • Why Dorin makes photographs.
  • Balancing family and photography.
  • Living a more sustainable lifestyle as a photographer.
  • The way in which Dorin organizes his work on his website.
  • And a lot more!
  • If you enjoyed our conversation, you can listen to our bonus episode on Patreon where Dorin and I discuss his adventure of running an entire mountain range in 25 hours.
