And so it is time to conclude our short series on lighting. Thank you to everyone who submitted images for our assignment on “Intentional Light”. It was great to see them and to discuss them on the show. There are some host submissions to discuss as well.

Video mentioned by Christian on what to shoot when “there is nothing to shoot”.

Out of grumpiness can spring beauty. Specifically, Ade is grumpy and that seeds a rich, rambling and revealing conversation about the role vulnerability plays in our creativity. If that sounds heavy, fear not, indulge yourself 😀.

A crafty discussion about exposure and how to use it to influence you images - with a generous helping of practical tips on the technicalities of working with flash. Too many topics covered to list them all in the show notes so buckle up and listen in!

Whoosh! Spring has sprung - or at least is springing, and only if you live in the northern hemisphere - but you get the point. When our minds turn to travelling with for photography and with our cameras, what do we look for? Truly we chase the light 😀!

In this episode we chat with delightful Ariela Badenas who's a photographer from Vancouver, Canada. She tells us why she loves film, how important community darkrooms are and why she would rather wear all her clothes on top of each other than not have enough space in her bag for cameras when travelling.
