My guest today is Summer Murdock, a Utah based photographer and photography educator who specialises in kids, lifestyle, and portraiture. She shoots everything, stills and motion, and my favourite images of hers are collections she’s made under water. You’ll hear in our conversation that she’s not stranger to a busy set but knows how to craft and find light for quieter sessions too. I love the texture and movement in her work. She is also clearly a wonderful human being as she not only responded positively to the invite to be on the show but has also listened and was an enthusiastic supporting voice in the run up to and since we recorded.

More about this show:

A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.
