    Dial & Aperture Ep. 15 - Photography in the studio vs. out in the world

    What are the biggest differences between shooting out in the world versus in the studio? And which of the two scenarios do we prefer? That’s the topic of discussion in today’s episode of Dial and Aperture. Join Nacho and Morgan as they explore the nuances of studio versus outdoor photography, sharing insights, experiences, and practical tips for photographers looking to enhance their craft in different environments.

As always, the wrap-up includes snapshots. This week, they include a French jewelry brand, a shout-out to a fellow photographer, and something everyone should do this time of year.
