Cultural Identity, Storytelling, and Adventure—this week on The Camera Café Show, we sit down with multi award-winning photographer Jatenipat Ketpradit from Thailand, whose portraits of remote indigenous tribes capture more than faces—they tell the stories of entire cultures.

From Mongolia’s Eagle Hunters to Papua New Guinea’s ghostly Asaro Mudmen, Jatenipat’s immersive approach takes him deep into communities, where he spends weeks earning trust before even picking up his camera. We talk about why cultural photography matters, how he prepares for months before a shoot, and what it takes to document traditions on the brink of disappearing.

If you love travel, portrait photography, and stories that go beyond the frame, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we talk about his journey from England to Japan, his philosophy on photography, and how nearly 20 years of podcasting has shaped his perspective. We also dive into his photography tours—from capturing wildlife in Japan’s snowy landscapes to leading adventures in Namibia and beyond—and what makes a great photography workshop experience both for himself as his participants.  

From resilience in his own personal life path, to creativity to conservation to education, Martin shares insights every photographer can learn from.

In this episode, we sit down with landscape photographer, workshop leader, and host of "F-Stop Collaborate and Listen" to talk about his journey from childhood hikes in Colorado to becoming a full-time photographer capturing the wild beauty of the outdoors. We get into his creative process, why intimate landscapes have become his obsession, and the balancing act of being a conservation advocate while sharing breathtaking locations.
