So excited to have the fantastic Rocio Vega on the Podcast for Episode 19 today! Based in Spain, Rocio was one of our top photographers of 2019, and has won six awards from us, including 3 Story Awards, which is an awesome feat. She shares so much today, including:

• whether there really is a quiet season at all,
• her experiences and views on talking at conferences,
• having conversations with herself,
• being empathetic and the importance of that,
• why she watches hands (and it's not linked to coronavirus),
• her childhood and how she got into photography,
• how learning what you don't want to do is so important too,
• not shooting what everyone else shoots,
• one of her favourite current Netfix series and why she recommends watching it especially if you've got kids,
• her ideal days,
• being in a relationship with a fellow (brilliant!) wedding photographer (Franck Boutonnet),
• how moments are like waves and searching for the peak,
• how our own feelings and emotions have an impact on what we shoot and show,
• shooting a lot and taking advantage of the tools at our disposal,
• the concept and industry of wedding photography,
• moments over couple-imagery,
• staying true to yourself,
• adding variety to your inspiration diet,
