    Ep 245 - Sandra Bartocha: Why Intimate Details Beat Grand Vistas

    Sandra Bartocha: Why Intimate Details Beat Grand Vistas Sandra Bartocha grew up with a photojournalist father and a rural childhood that pointed her firmly toward nature — and away from people. That foundation shaped a practice built on emotional resonance, where intimate details, shifting light, and quiet moods matter far more than sweeping panoramas. Based in Germany, Sandra works across natural landscapes, forests, plants, and abstract imagery, always with the same underlying intention: to evoke feeling rather than record fact. She builds her work in long-form bodies — books, exhibitions, audiovisual shows — rather than chasing the rhythms of social media. Her LYS project, a years-long exploration of northern Europe, resulted in both a 45-minute audiovisual presentation and a substantial coffee table book. In this conversation, Sandra discusses photographing locally, her preference for forests and the sea, and why she keeps post-processing minimal by focusing on getting things right in-camera. She reflects on what success actually means to her — personal expression and time spent outdoors — and speaks candidly about navigating a male-dominated field. She also considers where photography is heading amid AI and a renewed interest in film. A deeply considered photographer whose work has been recognised in Wildlife Photographer of the Year multiple times, Sandra's approach is a reminder that restraint and intention are creative strengths.

    Ep 244 - Bill Ward; Actor, Ocean ICM Photographer & Finding Solitude Through Photography

    Bill Ward is a multi-award-winning creative photographer and professional actor from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. Known for his pioneering work with Intentional Camera Movement (ICM), Bill’s photography explores energy, motion, and emotion—particularly through his long-running ocean project that culminated in the book Immersive, published in 2025.   While many recognise Bill for his acting career—most notably his roles as Charlie Stubbs in Coronation Street and James Barton in Emmerdale—photography has become an equally important creative outlet. For Bill, photography offers a quiet counterbalance to the public nature of acting, allowing him to explore solitude, reflection, and connection to place.   In this episode, Bill Ward discusses balancing two demanding creative careers while touring theatre productions such as The Shawshank Redemption. He shares how travelling for acting roles inspired numerous photographic projects, including a 16-year exploration of theatres and a pandemic-era book created in collaboration with the Theatres Trust.   Bill also explains his fascination with photographing water using long exposures and intentional camera movement, creating images that focus less on representation and more on feeling. His approach centres on time, immersion, and emotional connection to the landscape rather than simply documenting a scene.   Alongside his photographic work, Bill is a judge for the UK Landscape Photographer of the Year awards, leads workshops internationally, and continues to exhibit in galleries across the UK. His perspective highlights photography as a deeply personal practice—one rooted in quiet observation, creative experimentation, and the search for moments of stillness.   I hope you enjoy the show!

    Ep 243 - Mick Fortier – Healing Through Landscape & Aerial Imagery

    Mick Fortier is a Newcastle-based landscape and aerial photographer whose work is driven by a deep personal connection to both creativity and healing. A licensed drone pilot accredited by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), Mick creates striking aerial imagery that reveals familiar environments from powerful new perspectives. His photography spans landscapes, marine life, storms, and astrophotography, reflecting a desire to continually explore and stay creatively engaged.   Photography became especially meaningful following Mick’s eight-year policing career, which ended after he experienced PTSD. Returning to the camera provided a therapeutic outlet, helping him reconnect with himself and the natural world. Early inspiration from his father’s darkroom and the iconic Australian landscape work of Ken Duncan shaped his artistic direction and appreciation for the emotional impact of imagery.   Mick further developed his skills while studying photography at NSW TAFE, where mentorship and formal training refined his editing workflow and creative process. Drone photography became a defining part of his work, allowing him to capture dynamic coastal environments and dramatic ocean scenes that are otherwise inaccessible.   In this episode, Mick Fortier shares how photography supported his recovery, the lessons learned from challenging field experiences, and his perspective on authenticity in editing. He also discusses selling fine art prints through local gallery partnerships and why photography continues to play a vital role in his wellbeing and creative identity.   I hope you enjoy the show!

  4. Ep 242 - Andrew Vukosav – Abstract Aerial Landscapes, Flying Solo & Photographing Australia from the Sky

    17 MAR

    Ep 242 - Andrew Vukosav – Abstract Aerial Landscapes, Flying Solo & Photographing Australia from the Sky

    Andrew Vukosav is an Australian aerial landscape photographer whose work offers a radically different perspective on the continent, moving beyond traditional outback clichés to reveal abstract, surreal, and often fragile interpretations of the land. Flying solo into some of the most remote regions of Australia, Andrew undertakes journeys that can last days or even weeks, photographing coastlines, deserts, salt pans, and geological formations from directly overhead.   With over four decades of experience as a commercial photographer and a lifelong passion for aviation, Andrew engineered a unique photographic system by mounting a 150MP medium format camera into the underbelly of his single-engine aircraft. In this setup, the entire plane effectively becomes the camera body, banking and pitching into position for each image. The result is a visual language that feels unframed and immersive, as if the viewer is suspended in open air rather than looking through a cockpit window.   Andrew’s work explores the tension between fluidity and permanence—estuaries swirl like clouds, salt lakes resemble glaciers, and deserts appear both vast and delicate. Beneath the visual abstraction lies a deeper intent: to document the environmental fragility of Australia’s landscapes and encourage dialogue around sustainability and conservation.   In this episode, Andrew Vukosav discusses combining engineering with photography, navigating extreme isolation, researching geology and Indigenous land significance, and how encounters with artists at the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards reshaped his creative direction. He also shares insights into international exhibitions, including DFAT-supported tours and climate-focused events, and why minimal digital manipulation remains central to his process.   I hope you enjoy the show!

    Ep 241 - Ellen van den Doel on Finding Light in Nature

    Ellen van den Doel is a dedicated landscape photographer from the Netherlands, based in Sommelsdijk on the island of Goeree-Overflakkee. Photography has been a central part of her life since 2009 and remains a source of daily inspiration, balance, and creative fulfilment. Living by the sea, Ellen is deeply drawn to coastal environments, where rhythm, light, and atmosphere shape much of her visual language.   Her work is best known for its calm, minimalist aesthetic and extensive use of long exposure techniques. By working with neutral density filters and natural light, Ellen creates images that express mood, tranquillity, and a strong sense of place. While technical knowledge plays an important role in her process, her core philosophy centres on enjoyment, curiosity, and truly experiencing the landscape rather than simply capturing it.   Before becoming a full-time photography educator, Ellen built a long career in teaching and sports. With a background in gymnastics and physiotherapy, she spent over 25 years working as a teacher and coach. This foundation in education naturally evolved into photography, where she now leads workshops, photo tours, and lectures across Europe.   Since 2015, Ellen has been guiding photographers in the field, and since 2020 she has been closely involved with the Dutch Photo Academy, organising trips and educational programs. Known for her approachable and down-to-earth teaching style, she focuses on helping photographers slow down, observe light more carefully, and develop a deeper personal connection with the landscape.   In this episode, Ellen discusses her creative journey, photographing in extreme environments like Iceland, balancing business with passion, and why teaching remains just as meaningful to her as making images.   I hope you enjoy the show!

    Ep 240 - Antoinette Koutsomihalis – Fine Art Landscape Photography, Healing & Creative Purpose

    Antoinette Koutsomihalis, better known as Toni Kouts, is an international award-winning fine art landscape photographer based in Sydney, Australia, whose work is deeply rooted in emotion, intuition, and lived experience. With a background in welfare and a lifelong artistic practice, Antoinette approaches photography not just as a visual medium, but as a space for reflection, healing, and connection.   Her photographic journey began in her aunt’s darkroom, where she first discovered the power of images to hold memory and feeling. Since then, photography has become both a creative language and a personal refuge—one shaped by observation, integrity, and emotional depth.   In this episode, Antoinette shares how photography became a tool for mental health, self-expression, and personal transformation. She opens up about the influence of her welfare work and her experience with breast cancer, and how both have profoundly informed the way she sees the natural world and creates art.   Antoinette speaks honestly about authenticity in photography, the pressure of social media, and her desire to create work that prioritises emotional resonance over external validation. She reflects on travel, stillness, and the importance of approaching landscapes with respect and presence.   This conversation explores photography as a quiet, intuitive practice—one that invites viewers not just to look, but to feel, breathe, and walk a little further into the deeper stories of the natural world.   I hope you enjoy the show!

    Ep 239 - Michael Schultz – Photographing the Northern Lights & Wild Alaska

    Michael Schultz is a wildlife, aurora, and landscape photographer based in Alaska, where vast wilderness and glowing winter skies shape both his life and his work. Featured by National Geographic, Michael is widely recognised for his expertise in photographing the Northern Lights and capturing remote landscapes that feel raw, quiet, and deeply immersive.   Originally drawn to the outdoors rather than photography, Michael found the camera became a way to preserve emotional experiences rather than simply record locations. His work is rooted in honest storytelling, natural light, and a strong connection to place—focusing on how landscapes feel, not just how they look.   In this episode, Michael shares his journey from avid outdoorsman to full-time professional photographer and workshop leader. He discusses the challenges and rewards of long exposure photography, especially in extreme Arctic conditions, and how photographing aurora requires patience, presence, and technical precision.   Michael also reflects on leading small-group photography workshops through Alaska and beyond, helping photographers slow down, connect with nature, and create meaningful images rather than chasing trends. He explores the impact of social media and AI on photography, and why authentic experiences and real human connections remain central to his creative philosophy.   This conversation offers insight into photographing some of the most spectacular natural phenomena on Earth, while staying grounded in purpose, presence, and storytelling.

    Ep 238 - Matt Jackisch on Light, Nature & Consciousness

    Over the past decade, Matt Jackisch has combined his love of travel, adventure, and storytelling through the language of landscape photography. He finds a unique satisfaction in uncovering visual harmony between geometry and light, describing the process as similar to solving a mathematical equation. His approach is grounded in exploration, patience, and precise timing, allowing him to interpret nature through moments of clarity and visual balance.   Time spent in remote environments has shaped Matt’s worldview, fostering a deep awareness of humanity’s relationship with the natural world. He recognises the fragility of Earth’s remaining original ecosystems and sees his work as a way of preserving their memory. Through his images, Matt seeks to express simplicity, order, reverence, and at times, raw power—qualities he believes reflect the true essence of nature’s design.   Matt is committed to honest visual storytelling. While he uses advanced digital techniques to overcome technical limitations, his priority remains the integrity of the scene and the authenticity of human perception. Photography, for him, is not about creating fantasy but revealing deeper layers of reality. Guided by mentors early in his journey, he now shares his knowledge through workshops and creative critiques. His photographic pursuits have taken him across the Himalayas, Patagonia, Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Pakistan, Lebanon, and beyond. Alongside his creative life, Matt has worked as an Air Traffic Controller since 2004 and is currently based in Vancouver, British Columbia.   I hope you enjoy the show!
