    2026 Season 2 is here!!! How photography shaped my world.

    Send us a text Season 2 is here! I wanted to reintroduce myself, so you know who you are listening to.  :) Photography has shaped me over the years, from the many types of cultural events I have captured. People of all cultures share love, family, and friendship, which make us all the same. The privilege of being the guy in the room with a camera has never been taken for granted. This job has given me more insights to humanity than any other job. Support the show Working photographers know how to balance life and business to be successful.
