Photo Drives

Summary In this episode, the Follow Up, we discuss our experiences with big moments or projects in our work. When they happen, we celebrate and get a wonderful high from it, but where do we go from there? How do we top those big moments? We have to remember to celebrate the little steps too. Welcome back! We made it to week two! For those of you that have heard episode one, thank you for listening and all of your awesome feedback.  That’s what this is all about, having the great conversations about something we all love!

Episode 2: The Follow Up - Right Click and Save As to Download In this podcast we discuss: Big moments in our work. What was a big moment in your photography career or life? Gary’s photograph that went viral. It just kind of happened. Jacob’s documentary project with the homeless community of Madison, WI. It taught him so much. How social media effects your work. Use it to your advantage, but be genuine about it. What do we deal with these ups and downs in our work? Art is about appreciation for every step of the way. Photos and content discussed in today’s episode. Gary’s images This is it. The big image that went viral. Weather channel, Washington Post blog, cross-country, and eventually around the world. Lightning, northern lights, and some stars helped make for a trifecta that many said was the shot of a lifetime. This image was shot the same night as the viral shot. It didn’t get quite the attention that the one with the lightning got, but it’s still my second most viewed photograph ever. What do you do after your image goes viral and you have another photograph to produce 24 hours later? How do you top yourself? You simply don’t. You just go for a walk in a dried up river run-off and let a small deer follow you around!

Welcome to our maiden voyage podcast. Today we talk about procrastination with personal projects or ideas that we all have, but never do.  We have been talking about starting this podcast and blog for quite some time, nearly a year, and now we are ready to “just do it” and share it with all of you. We found it to be a suitable way and topic to start off this awesome new journey for us. If you are not familiar with who we are head over to our About page to see our friendly faces and short bios.  We love to chat, so feel free to follow us on twitter, facebook, or email us at our Contact page!   Subscribe on iTunes, download the podcast below or listen to it using the audio player at the bottom of this blog post. Episode 1: Just Do It - Right Click and Save As to Download   In this podcast we discuss: Time isn’t on our side.   If you have a project you’ve been wanting to do, just do it. Who we are.  Seriously, who the heck are these guys?! Why we started this podcast.  We love to go on photo adventures and photography always seemed to be the main topic. Projects that we procrastinated on.  Ones that we finally did or ones still on the back burner. What to look forward to from us.  We have lots of ideas for photography discussions that cover every realm of photography. Photographs discussed in today’s episode. Gary’s photo from the autumn road trip. Gary’s winter photo from the road trip.   Jacob’s photograph from the autumn road trip. Jacob’s photograph from the winter road trip.   What are your thoughts on our first episode?
