LUCIMA Podcast

What do you do when you're not shooting? Like in between sets. Do you go for a dip? Like go for a swim. Curious to know what the hell I'm talking about? Click on the podcast above! :)

Exactly as titled. A very candid conversation about the world of Instagram and what the implications of buying followers.

Sometimes I have ideas that aren't fully formed. In this episode Keith and discuss some philosophies that impact my perspective on life and photography. Enjoy!

A day after shooting at the Lautner Hotel I am still a shocked at how the heat affected my ability to shoot! Here's my reaction and the take away points!

Keith references the profile pic for this podcast (Rachel from Hollywood Model Management) and asks what I would do if a modeling agency asked me to shoot exactly this?

Ren Lara also on this podcast!

Picking up where we left off from the last podcast, I stand up for photographers and really explain my viewpoint.

We pick up midstream with Ren Lara joining us in studio giving us his perspectives on tests, modeling agencies and expectations.

Keith was talking through his presentation notes for the Working with Modeling Agencies Workshop (http://lucima.com/the-concrete-loft-workshop/). He suggested that photographers discuss with modeling agents the possibility of submitting their test images to magazines. That got us talking about setting precedents and expectations. The conversation picks up midstream.

Keith and I respond to the question,

"How involved are you with model development? What do you say to a model when you want her to work a certain way to achieve a look such as from your editorial portfolio?"

I have a formal response here with all the articles linked: http://lucimablog.blogspot.com/2015/05/git-r-done.html

As part of the setup for The Concrete Loft Workshop (http://lucima.com/the-concrete-loft-workshop/) Keith Carhill tells a short story about a test gone wrong during his time as a modeling agent!

A candid conversation between fashion photographers Charles LUCIMA and Rodney Alan about Instagram (social media) and Retouching!
