    Riding Shotgun to Sedona - TDS Photography Podcast

    Riding Shotgun to Sedona - TDS Photography Podcast

    There are two facets to any road trip: How you think it will go and how it actually turns out. For the journey from Santa Rosa, CA to Sedona, AZ in my all-electric VW ID.4, I felt like I had a great plan. After all, this isn't my first EV rodeo. I've done two trips to Oregon for workshops, plus numerous adventures up and down the state. But I also know that every excursion takes on its own personality. Ride along with me to Sedona and let's experience it together. I hope you enjoy the show.

    The Irresistible Roadtrip- TDS Photography Podcast

    The Irresistible Roadtrip- TDS Photography Podcast

    Ah, the convenience of modern commercial aviation - Just hop on a plane and within a few hours you have landed at your destination. Why would anyone spend the extra time and effort to drive there instead? Well, this photographer for one. And on today's TDS Photography Podcast I will explain why I'm driving to this year's Sedona Workshop instead of flying. I hope you enjoy the show.

    Finally, Fast Transfer from SD Card to Smartphone - TDS Photo Podcast

    Finally, Fast Transfer from SD Card to Smartphone - TDS Photo Podcast

    In theory, our mirrorless cameras and smartphones should be the best of mates. Together, they could provide the power and portability that we could only dream of a decade ago. But thanks to finicky WiFi mobile apps, transfers from camera to smartphones have been painful at best. Then, the EU stepped in. And everything changed. Find out how on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

    Getting Serious About Portable Power - TDS Photo Podcast

    Getting Serious About Portable Power - TDS Photo Podcast

    Cameras, laptops, drones, lighting - they all require power, and sometimes all at once. When we're at home, it's just a matter of finding enough outlets. But on the road, that can be more challenging in motel rooms. And if you're sharing space with someone, they're probably saying, "Hey, where do I plug my phone in?" And then, how about out in the field? Yes, we all need power, regardless of where we are. And this week, I'm going to tell you how to get it. I hope you enjoy the show.

    Photography's Most Powerful Teacher: Failure - TDS Photo Podcast

    Photography's Most Powerful Teacher: Failure - TDS Photo Podcast

    The idea of what is successful and what isn't has been swimming around my head lately. I'm sure a big part of it was our Photo Critique Workshop that just wrapped up. Those discussions about how we view our pictures versus the reactions to them by others were fascinating. So I decided to share a story with you about the secret to good photography. All of this, and more, on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show.

Still The Best in 2023

Derrick publishes a very informative and upbeat podcast every Tuesday - just like clockwork. He’s a professional photographer and educator rolled into one. I became a Patreon supporter to help Derrick continue to contribute fresh ideas everything week. Highly recommended.

Inspiring Photography and Technology Podcasts That Make Sense

Although we’ve never met, It seems like Derrick is the good neighbor you look forward to chatting with (by way of his podcasts). Every week he transports us to a place he’s been scouting, an event he’s been supporting, or to the office in his studio. No matter where he is, be assured the delivery of his words will have you right there with him.
Derrick has a good sense what will interest his listeners. I hope you’ll stop by for some inspiration from the Digital Story.
