Today I’m speaking with Jake Warren, photographer, podcast host and creator from Alberta, Canada. I first came across Jake’s work in a Facebook group and after getting to hear from Jake himself, I discovered he has worked on some of the largest productions in recent years in theatres and streaming services. Jake gives us an inside look at union work and what it means to “learn on the fly”. We discuss how networking and having the right attitude will help you and those around you succeed and grow, together.

Today I’m speaking with Alex Denham, a published photographer from the UK! I first came across Alex’s work years ago when I saw some of her photos from a Gumball 3000 rally. Her editing style and the way she captures her images give life to all of her work. I was fortunate enough to speak with Alex about overcoming obstacles, trying new photography styles and what it feels like to have her work published in magazines.

Today I’m speaking with Ted Howells. Who is a photographer and content creator from the UK. I first spoke to Ted on the Clubhouse app where we discussed the rise of TikTok and what he was doing to grow on the platform. Ted consistently has high views on his work, and his EDC (Every Day Carry) photos have garnered a large following on their own! I talked to Ted about his thoughts on social media sites and the importance of learning all you can while being humble.
