Welcome to a series of conversations I'm sharing with you during the COVID-19 pandemic.

I became more interested in photographing my family's days when our days changed suddenly. In this series of conversations, I am talking to photographers and asking them how this time has impacted their photography.

Today’s guest is Kate Miller Wilson. Kate is a mother, photographer and author. Our conversation begins with the photo that started a series of photos of her son who is on the autism spectrum. The series became the stunning book - Look Me in the Lens. The book is a combination of photos she made with her son and insights from her son about his experience of life with autism. Kate talks about how the book came to be and what it was like to create it. We also talk about Kate’s love of daily photos and the new love of her life - using a large format 4x5 film camera. Enjoy the show.

Today’s guest is Raymond Hatfield. Raymond is a father, photographer and host of the Beginner Photography Podcast. Our conversation begins with the story of Raymond helping a couple who had wedding photos taken but they never saw them.

Enjoy!

Next week on the show - Raymond Hatfield - host of The Beginner Photography Podcast. Listen to my interview on his podcast from last summer.

You can also hear me on Through the Lens of Motherhood.

On this episode: Troy Colby. Troy is a photographer and father. I found his project, The Fragility of Fatherhood and right away wanted to have him on the podcast. Troy talks about how this project began and what his hopes are for it. Troy is tired of images that idealize family life. His work explores the more ambiguous moments of being a father. Our conversation is as much about what it feels like to be a parent as what it is like to photograph our life and family.

Today's show is with an old friend of mine, Tryn Rose Seley. Tryn Rose works with people who have dementia and has written a book titled, Fifteen Minutes of Fame: One Photos Does Wonders To Bring You Both Back to Solid Ground. In her work, Tryn Rose has found the power of photographs to help people with Alzheimer’s remember who they are. The photos also help the people who care for them have a way to connect with their loved one. Sometimes it’s a photo from the patient’s life, sometimes the photo is of something they love. Tryn Rose also talks about how photographs can help all of us connect with the people around us.
