    KA-BOOM! Photographer Jared Kocka joins us via Zoom from NYC on the eve of his new book release on June 15th! No time for Lucas's bad jokes that fall flat, we dive right into Jared's transition from LA to NYC and key differences he's observed between the coastal industries. We then talk about the inspiration and themes that went into creating Jared's first compendium photo book -- and later, Lucas rants on the insulting reduction of "female versus male gaze" in photography and art. BUY JARED'S BOOK!

    12 - Lupe Santiago (producer)

    Unsung hero and mega executive producer Lupe Santiago takes us to Excel School and breaks down all the things that go into the nitty gritty of production. We track her journey from crossing the border into the US as a child, to her first job in the industry as a sample coordinator, and through her time at one of the best studios in LA (and the country) Industrial Color. Q&A: the importance of work/life balance, pros and cons of being a producer, and how to get hired by her. Dry January is over -- time to undo it all! Shintani, meet me at Tony's!

    11 - Randall Slavin (photographer)

    Mr. Biggie Big-Time celebrity and advertising photographer Randall Slavin talks about how his transition from actor to photographer fueled his meteoric rise as a Los Angeles photography vanguard. We also discuss his distaste for film (wha??) as well as the indispensability of professional retouchers. Kuestions Korner: how important is networking... how can models make their own shoot successful... who are our personal idols... and, is it ok to fake it??

    08 - Mail Bag #1 (feat. Matt Shouse)

    Matt Shouse stumbles in (literally) and crashes our first ever Mail Bag episode, where we answer all YOUR burning questions. Full disclosure: this is a heavy gear-talk episode, so it's either going to be nerd-boner city for you, or a holistic sleep-aid. Either way, we're glad you're here!

So helpful!

Only two episodes so far, but i’ve learned more about the industry here than any other place i’ve been able to find.

Dope!

This podcast is new but these guys already know way more about actual working fashion photographers than other podcasts claiming the same. So far the guests are great— hope to hear modeling agents sometime. Would be cool to know that mindset.

Great insight

I’m an aspiring fashion photographer in Chicago and this podcast is super helpful for what it’s like in LA. I want to move there soon and these guys give great advice and insight. Wish me luck!
