Foto 029 - Jon R Moore


Listen Later

Photographer Jon Moore joins Michael to talk about his move from Tennessee to Portland, working across the rural Northwest, and creating images that document human-affected landscapes.

We cover his early film studies at Watkins College, work as a studio manager and camera operator, and his weekend photo trips through Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and beyond. Jon shares stories from photographing ghost towns, tavern regulars, and roadside characters, plus lessons from Stephen Shore and Alec Soth.

He discusses his deliberate, tripod-based approach, the Pentax 6×7 he was gifted, and why subject, light, and composition matter more than gear. Jon also previews his upcoming book, A Storm that Needed a Mountain, with its hand-embroidered cover and imagery of changing landscapes in Goldendale, Washington.
