How has your year been with your photography? 2024 coming to a close. It’s a good time to reflect on the work, the art that we created this year… and give some thought to what’s coming up for us in 2025.

I’ll reflect on what this year has meant for my photography.

This conversation has been happening ever since digital cameras started to evolve into some pretty incredible machines. But as amazing as digital can be, how does it now compare to shooting film.

I’ll share my recent thoughts on this over-talked-about topic.

The post Episode 131 – More 50 vs 35mm and A.I. Part II appeared first on Photography Matters.

What is your favorite focal length? I bounce back and forth between 50 and 35. I think I’ll stick with 50mm for a while and I’ll tell you my reasons why.

Also A.I. – We are seeing it creep more and more into the photography space. Lot’s to talk about here. Too much to cover in one episode, but I’ll share a few of my thoughts on A.I. and how it can affect your future as a photographer.

Enjoy.

Are you stuck? Not feeling inspired these days? Man, we’ve all been there. I’ve been feeling that way a lot over the past year. Most of you are aware that I’ve moved back to the NW. In this episode I’ll talk about how the dramatic change of scenery has really fired up my creative soul. Even with just these days trip I’ve been taking in the surrounding areas lately… man, it’s been a long time since I’ve been this inspired to shoot. Let me know if you can relate…

So… a few things have changed since the previous episode (if anyone can remember that). In a spur-of-the-moment decision, I packed up, left Las Vegas and moved back to the Northwest. Man, it’s the best decision I’ve made in a long time. I’ll talk about the move and what preceded it, and how I’m so much looking forward to my future of photography (and everything) being back home.

Enjoy.

Shoot from your heart. Probably doesn’t need a lot of explanation. I’ll also talk a little about managing the galleries on your website.

Passion… Passion and creativity are the most driving forces of my life. It’s been that way since I was a kid. IMHO I think the more you focus your photography on what you’re passionate about, you’ll come away with the strongest, most powerful images you can make. How important is that!? I’ll talk abou that.

I also share my favorite photography podcasts with you. Cool people out there.

Enjoy.

Mindful Photography – it’s a term you hear frequently here on the podcast. For me, being a mindful photographer brings the strongest images… stories. Every once in a while, year, there are those Happy Accidents. But it’s when I’ve been mindful of what I’m photographing that I get the best, strongest photos.

Warning: Soap Box Edition. In tonight’s episode I’ll talk about an approach to freeing up your mind to be able to create more from emotion… less from an intellectual perspective; maybe a way to create images with more feel. Maybe to create more with abandonment and more often. Just one guy’s approach. See what you think about it.

Enjoy.
