In this episode of the Camera Shake Podcast, Kersten chats with Carl van den Boom, CEO and co-founder of Vallerret Photography Gloves, to uncover how a cold-weather frustration turned into one of the most trusted brands in outdoor photography. Carl shares the early days of sketching and prototyping, the design challenges behind making gloves specifically for photographers, and the process of growing a niche product into a global business.

This conversation blends photography, creativity, and entrepreneurship—perfect for anyone looking to build a photography business, refine their craft, or simply get inspired by a founder who carved out his own lane in the industry. From business lessons to creative focus, Carl gives a refreshingly honest look at what it takes to turn an idea into a company photographers rely on.
