    #18 Albert Roig Collell | The truth behind the photography industry

    Today's guest is Albert Roig Collell, the Founder and CEO of Carmencita Film Lab, one of Europe's premier indie film labs located in Barcelona, Spain. This honest conversation is all about the unspoken struggle and reality behind doing photography or anything else that comes from a place of passion. Albert challenges the status quo on many levels and brings to the surface truths that are uncomfortable yet necessary for the entire community. In a world where social media exists, and everyone tries to be a role model, it is easy to think that you can copy other people's journeys and make a living out of your craft. In reality, things are far more complex and full of ups and downs. Tune in!

    #16 Lauren Chambers | Authenticity is a buzzword. How to stay true to your values

    Today’s guest is the wonderful wedding photographer and educator Lauren Chambers. Even though Lauren started doing photography over three years ago, her rhythm and integrity significantly accelerated her growth. She knows her values inside-out and stays true to them. This level of clarity allows her to save time and energy in order to focus on things that matter and make a difference. In this interview, Lauren comes with a fresh perspective on the known buzzword "authenticity" and what it actually means to be authentic. She thinks that wedding photography is not about the art, but about providing a good service to your clients, and those who want to create art should choose a different niche. Tune in on this insightful conversation and let us know if you agree.

    #15 James Simmons | Sustainable success — how to stay relevant & inspired

    Our podcast host, the talented Oli Sansom, chats with James Simmons, a brilliant wedding photographer from Australia, about ways photographers can stay inspired and relevant in the long run. A lot of photography jobs require you to do the same thing over and over again, this can put you on autopilot. Several things happen in this state: 1) your creativity and your courage to start new things, suffer. 2) you start wondering why do you do what you do. And on top of that, as new photographers enter the market every single day — everything becomes even more challenging. During the pandemic, James took the opportunity to rethink his journey, and identify whether he’s still on the right track. It was a turning point, and an excellent chance to change his mindset.

    #12 Ian Weldon | A historic approach to photography

    Today's host, Oli Sansom, a talented photographer and educator from Melbourne, chats with Ian Weldon, a musician turned into a photographer, knighted by Martin Parr himself. Ian's passion is to create historical documents for future generations to help them relate to the world as it was back then. By taking one glance at his work, you'll immediately understand why his approach is so particular within the industry. He challenges the familiar images we repeatedly see on our screens and the notion of what is considered “beautiful”. He's a strong believer in creating things that stand the test of time, which implies practicing resilience, but also being comfortable with failure. We hope this episode inspires and gives you a raw perspective on your creative work. It's always good to be challenged on something we do on autopilot.

    Today's episode, with our host Nadia Meli and Canadian wedding and portrait photographer — Nicole Ashley, is strong proof that there's still room to discuss social media anxiety and its impact on creative work.

We all know the negative ways it can affect us, yet how many dig deeper and change something in their behavior? How do we control it instead of letting it control us? Is there a way to channel the anxiety into a good force that can push us forward? Tune in to find the answers to these questions!
