Ep 167 - Matt Redfern: Observation & Conservation


Listen Later

Matt Redfern, a central Oregon-based landscape photographer, grew up with a camera in hand. Matt's love for nature was nurtured by family camping trips and outdoor adventures. His passion for photography began with capturing snapshots of anything that caught his eye, eventually evolving into a focused pursuit of meaningful photographic art.

 

Matt emphasizes the importance of observation in photography, viewing it as a contemplative practice that informs both his craft and his approach to life. His shooting process is intuitive, letting the environment guide him, while his editing style is minimalistic—using Lightroom and Photoshop only to adjust basic elements like lighting and color, with a goal to maintain the natural essence of the scene.

 

Influenced by astro photography and inspired by photographers like Guy Tall, Matt’s work reflects a deep respect for nature. He discusses the importance of peer critiques in refining his skills and the challenge of balancing his passion for photography with the demands of everyday life. Through his images, Matt aims to present the beauty he finds in nature, hoping that viewers will find their own meaning in his work.

 

I hope you enjoy the show!
