Welcome to Martha’s Studio! In this episode we discuss Martha’s many mediums of visual art and concept based work. Originally born in Colombia, Martha now resides in a small fairy tale looking town called Marshal in North Carolina. We discuss living in multiple places that are all vastly different, the role it plays intuitively in artwork, projects in these locations etc. A lot of Martha’s work is visually geometrical, but conceptually fluid based around the human form and documenting time. Originally an architect, Martha was always working as an artist on the side along with teaching, she is a busy busy body. I hope you enjoy this talk as we deep dive her concepts. 

Note: This was filmed in January (actually one of the first round of episodes), so don't be triggered that winter was mentioned lol!

Welcome to Christian’s studio! In this episode we discuss Christians journey from musician to audio engineering to now one of the most successful wedding photographers I know. We also discuss the balance of family and owning a business with a partner, as well as juggling dad life and a busy schedule as a photographer in Miami. Of course we chat about Leica and how a camera can assist in dictating your voice as an artist as well. We also chat about the impact covid had on such a socially reliant career and how challenging it was to be a business owner in that time. Christian was a heavy influence on my own career change so it was an honor to have him on the show. Enjoy!
