I first met USA Today’s tech journalist Jefferson Graham the same day I met Frederick Van Johnson. I drove out to watch him record his Talking Tech podcast, which is described on the site as “Your daily consumer tech news update, plus the latest gadget reviews and straight talk about how the latest tech innovations affect you, with USA TODAY’s Jefferson Graham”. His guests that day were Frederick and tech journalist Mark Gurman. Right away it was obvious that there was much more to Jefferson than just being a tech journalist and podcaster. His photography knowledge was front and center. Fast forward a good number of years and Jefferson is still doing the Talking Tech podcast, and a lot more.

Jefferson Graham is a working photographer in the L.A. area, a writer, a podcast host, a video creator, and a darn good guitarist. His Photowalks travel photography series has taken his YouTube viewers all over Southern California, and then some. He has covered great locations, from Dana Point to Morro Bay, Cannon Beach, Oregon, Port Townsend, Washington, Madrid, Lisbon, and even all the way to Tokyo!

Recently I had the pleasure of hosting Jefferson for one of his Photowalks series in my home town in Southern CA, and it was a blast. I was born and raised here, and yet I learned so much by doing the walk with him.

Join all around creative Jefferson Graham and me as we discuss the benefits of doing a photowalk, and get a few tips, on this episode of Behind the Shot.
