Tania Malkin's passion for photography began early, collecting travel postcards on family camping trips around Western Australia and receiving her first SLR camera at seven. Inspired by the Australian outback's colors and the Australian Impressionist art movement, Tania's interest in photography and art has been a significant part of her life journey. Initially studying fine art and art history, she used photographic images as references for her paintings. However, landscape photography, particularly aerial photography, took precedence in the late '90s.

Living and working in remote locations has given Tania the opportunity to explore and capture stunning landscapes, creating artworks across various mediums, including photography, painting, and ceramics. Tania describes aerial images as illustrations of the landscape in a completely different way, offering a journey through the history of a landscape that oscillates between the surreal and reality.. Tania's work is renowned for its unique perspectives and storytelling through images, capturing the essence of the landscapes she explores. She continues to shape her approach to landscape photography, offering a glimpse into the future of the art form.

We discuss her experiences working with Fujifilm, her transition from terrestrial to aerial photography, and the logistical and creative challenges that come with it. We touch on her approach to planning shoots, her philosophy on storytelling through images, the business side of photography, and her struggles with pricing and marketing her work along with lots more. 

I hope you enjoy the show!
