I'm joined this week by Darren Spoonley, a seasoned Irish landscape photographer, together we unpack his photographic journey, sparked at the age of 12, developing film and receiving his first camera. Specializing in landscapes and seascapes, Darren captures the perpetual beauty and unpredictability of nature. Beyond photography, he hosts a Youtube channel and an Irish photography podcast, connecting with talented individuals. 

Darren's mindful approach involves savouring nature's freedom, allowing meticulous composition consideration. As the founder of the 'Munster Landscape Photographers Ireland' group, he fosters a community of enthusiasts, organizing meet-ups and competitions. Acknowledged by the Irish Photographic Federation, Darren remains committed to capturing and sharing the timeless beauty of the Irish landscape. 

We explore his creative journey, personal branding, overcoming creative blocks, and humorous controversies, providing insights into his unique photographic style and business management.

I hope you enjoy the show!
