Ever wondered about the enigmatic world behind a photograph, the stories it tells, and the people it captures? Join us in part two of our conversation on The Mood Podcast as we explore the intricate journey of Jord's rise as a world-renowned photographer. Hear firsthand from him about his love for photography as a powerful medium for expression, the thrilling unpredictability of taking photos on location, the joy of meeting new people, and the art of weaving a narrative through images.

We delve into the world of Michael Sadovsky, Kath Seymard, and George Steinmetz, photographers whose unique styles have made a lasting impact on Jord. Listen to how his style has evolved over time and uncover the tools he considers essential in visual storytelling. We also emphasize the importance of honing a distinctive style that resonates with audiences and contributes to a robust portfolio.

Lastly, we share priceless nuggets of wisdom for all photographers, both budding and seasoned. Jord underscores the importance of the practical application of techniques and we mention the concept of 'shelf help'. He encourages perseverance in completing photography courses and offers insights into his mentoring package. We also discuss the exhilarating yet challenging journey of pursuing photography professionally, the benefits of community with other artists, and the value of learning through trial and error.
