For some photographers, the goal of photography transcends capturing pretty moments of pretty things. While there's nothing wrong with this approach, it can begin to feel repetitive and lacking purpose for some. As such, finding ways to have our photography be about more, have more impact, and ultimately make the world a better place is the next step in the journey.

Today's guest on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, Paul Hoelen, is well known for his evocative and beautiful aerial photography from Australia and Tasmania, having won the inaugural Natural Landscape Photography Awards Aerial Prize. What's not as well known about Paul are his incredible personal projects that he focuses a lot of energy and passion into.
