The PhotoTellers--Photography Podcast

Why You Should Stop Educating Other Photographers. And Why You Should Start.


Listen Later

Today's conversation is limited to an extremely specific audience. If you're a Photographer who is a Speaker/Teacher/Workshop Leader, today's message is a gift for you. Some of you may not like what you hear. If not, you can blame ME. I specifically asked the Daniels to address this subject.

Here's the spoiler of this episode: UNDERSTAND YOUR "WHY."

And lest you think this is a Debbie Downer show, here are a few things you WON'T hear today:

  • "There are too many Speakers on the circuit!"
  • "Photography has plenty of educational resources!"
  • "You have to invest decades into the industry before you have the right to teach others!"
  • Quite the contrary.

    Greg and Lesa graciously, candidly reveal details of their own journey as top-tier speakers, the Mentor who begged them to stop, why they left the teaching circuit for a couple of decades, and why they're back at it today.

    If you're on the speaking/teaching circuit, this is the "I wish I'd have known then what I know now" conversation. Don't miss it.

    This is actually the second part of my conversation with Gregory & Lesa Daniel. If you missed the first part, you missed a great discussion of showcasing your work, the world's best engagement story that begins on the Space Shuttle, and an inspiring story of a 12 year old's first photograph.
