    Intro Episode | A Conversation with Jason Ackerman

    Welcome to the very first episode of Between the Frames — a podcast for photographers, creatives, and entrepreneurs navigating the beautifully messy reality of building a business and a life they love. In this intro episode, my husband Jason Ackerman joins me behind the mic for a relaxed, honest conversation about my journey into photography, the realities of entrepreneurship, creativity, motherhood, and what inspired me to finally start this podcast. We talk about: • how photography became more than just a hobby • who Roz the creative really is • balancing ambition and family life • the 1 thing you should do if you're a new photographer • why photography matters • and the kinds of conversations you can expect here moving forward This episode feels a little like sitting on the couch with us — candid, conversational, and imperfect in the best way. I’m so glad you’re here. Subscribe for future episodes covering photography, business, creativity, behind-the-scenes stories, editing workflows, gear conversations, motherhood, and everything happening between the polished moments.
