Ever get a song stuck in your head that you can’t seem to shake? Or, do you ever have a random fact that you can’t remember but can remember everything else about the fact? For example, you can’t remember the name of the singer of Margaritaville, but you can remember his name sounds like something at a restaurant, likes boats, eats cheeseburgers, writes books and has beach parties at his concerts.

In our photography, I think sometimes how we deal with these brain glitches can have an impact on the type of photographs we make and how we process our creative practice. So, in this week’s podcast, we dive not the world of songs that won’t go away and random trivia to try and find a place where our photography can lead us in a new direction.

In this week’s podcast, we take a look at how rushing and invoking our fight or flight responses to framing and composing our photographs can have an unintended detrimental impact on our work. And, how small steps like deep breaths, reimagining work and presence of mind can help us recognize compositional issues when they appear behind the lens.

This week’s podcast is a dive into a few listener questions that have come in over the past few weeks. We look at how to approach big projects and use the amazing Matika Wilbur’s Project 562 work as an example of how big projects often require lots of time, miles and small bits. We then look at how to answer the question: what will you do with that photo? And finally, we take a peak at the tinting and toning of black and white images.

In looking at photographs, there are a lot of ways to evaluate the work. Two of those approaches are content and concept. We can look at how well the concept is executed, and we can look at how well the content supports the concept.

In the podcast this week, I dive into the importance of understanding a couple of key elements about content and concept in analyzing your work. Most important are understanding the default bias you bring to your analysis and how to temper your analysis against your unwanted biases to find a deeper, more insightful meaning in your work.

One of the great aspects of working in photography is the chance to work on projects. And in this case, by projects, I just mean a collection of similar themed work. Many of us start out taking images of things that capture our attention. They might seem random or grouped somehow, but they are often disjointed. Eventually, we might see a pattern or theme develop but still continue to click away sort of ad-hoc.

In the podcast this week, I talk about the value of thinking of your work as projects, big and small, and how focusing on a group of images or collection of images can help you better understand your technique, vision and voice within your work.

In the podcast this week, I offer up five challenges each with 10 outcomes to try that will help push you forward as a photographer.

I have had several conversations about what to do with bad images lately. So, in this week’s podcast, we revisit a classic topic for organization and working with your images–what to do with all those bad images. I am not a just delete and burn person; I think there are some reasons to really consider what you are deleting and why. Not only does experience shift over time as we learn more about what makes a good photograph meaning what was once skipped might be found, but we also can learn from looking at those bad images. So before you delete and purge, listen to the podcast and see if your approach is the best long-term solution.
