Breathe Pictures Podcast | Photography And Film Making

With Lowa Boots, I take your emailed thoughts and feedback from the episodes you've recently heard. A chance to make some pictures and reflect on the words we've heard from the incredible photographers who talk on these shows. Today we're walking a little of the path we've taken before, a former nuclear weapons airbase in the south of England, Greenham Common, once home to 96 lethal cruise missiles, now the grazing home to free roaming cattle, joggers, cyclists and two Photowalkers; you and I. Supported by www.lowa.co.uk 

During a week where we've talked about aerial shooting, teenage lockdown, social unrest and protest photography, I'm ending the interview portion of the week before the Friday Photowalk in contemplative chat with Max Lacome, London based portrait, celebrity and fashion photographer. He's successfully created a business with a client list keen to commission him and as the doors begin to open again to his genre I'm keen to understand more about the world of photography he frequents.

Meet Ryan Vizzions, a photographer who started making pictures at the most difficult time of his life after losing his father to suicide. He quit his job at a Fortune 500 company, travelled half way across the world to a place chosen randomly with friends to find himself alone in the midst of civil unrest in Thailand during the 'Red shirt protests' of 2010. It was to be a trip that shaped his photographic future covering stories of injustice and protest. Comment on the show: studio@photographydaily.show 

Today a photographer who has been making the news on the BBC and the Huffington Post of late, Carolyn Mendelsohn on her incredibly powerful photography project for teenagers in Bradford during lockdown called Through Our Lens, a grass roots photographic self-isolation project that brought young people together to express their honest feelings pictorially during this time and rebuilt a photographer's belief in her business.

Vincent Laforet is back for his third and final part and he’s in the air, for an ambitious photo project that almost didn’t get off the ground at all. Project Air pushes the boundaries of aerial photography in an unimaginable way working at the very limits of camera and gimbal technology and in helicopters working at their ceiling limitations too!

Chris Orange has changed his business and life quite considerably since finding food photography, quite by accident commercially.

London portrait and celebrity photographer Charlie Clift is back for the final part of his mini series on making creative portraits. And if you’re intrigued by the title, this is the man who did indeed shove a carrot in Jeremy Clarkson’s mouth mid session, listen on to hear what happened. Charlie talks about working with politicians, celeb chefs, actors, expectations and creating original photo stories.

Today for some, this is a tutorial on how to build your YouTube channel, perhaps a new one if you’ve thought; "Why not, I’d like to have a go at running a channel?" For others it’ll be a chance to go behind the scenes; a day in the life of a landscape YouTuber, but also I think it’s an opportunity to hear the truly passionate engagement of a photographer who loves what he does, although you’re about to hear the good and bad of being in front of a camera. Adam Karnacz is my guest from First Man Photography, whose channel is starting to fly. Contact the show: studio@photographydaily.show Visit the showpage

Travel and an ingeniously creative way to teach landscape photography skills is today's inspiration for an episode about taking to the open road. American photographer and YouTuber Nick Page shares some behind the scenes secrets about the F4 Road Trip, 'a landscape photography course like no other.' Also we talk about being in the wilds and find out what floats Nick's boat when it comes to making pictures in the vast wilds of The States. Email the show: studio@photographydaily.show

There are moments in your life, where you make decisions that change just about everything; sliding door moments. If today's guest Vincent Laforet hadn’t seen a white boxed package on a desk during a visit to Canon that held a particular brand and model of camera, if he hadn’t then essentially begged for an opportunity, if he hadn’t proposed his audacious plan quite so passionately, perhaps he wouldn’t have changed direction quite so radically?

Walk with me on the south coast of England in Swanage, in the rain with soggy fish 'n' chips, your emails and our cameras for the Friday Photowalk edition, brought to you with those nice people at Lowa, who have been making the best quality walking and hiking boots for 90 years and this month you can WIN a pair! You make this show what it is with your emails and today there are questions about photographing disaster, travel kit and what is it about Fuji users? You can see images from today's walk on the showpage.

London based creative portrait, advertising and editorial photographer Charlie Clift returns (part 2 of 4), and we’ll be concentrating in this visit on a project we’ve discussed already in a previous episode, the Let’s Talk campaign. This project involved people having their toughest and sometimes scarring inner most thoughts painted on to their faces. Some ideas organically become strong brilliant ideas and this is one of those. We talk about creativity, ideas and having the strength to know you have a good one. Supported by imagesalon.com

This is the most appropriate episode I think I could air today, because personally there's a lot of change going on in our household as you'll hear about during the introduction to this podcast about Adam Karnacz from First Man Photography, who after 14 years as a police officer, completely changed his life to become a social and landscape photographer, YouTuber, mountain and hill walker. Today is about change and changing your life for one all about photography. Be sure to write into the show with your thoughts for the Friday Photowalk edition: studio@photographydaily.show

Walking their dogs three years ago, sisters-in-law Laura Johnson and Zoe Proctor mused why there wasn't a specialist agency to represent disabled people in mainstream media and modelling. In that one walk, they hatched and launched Zebedee Management, a specialist talent agency representing people who until now have largely been excluded in the media including people with disabilities, or alternative appearance and more latterly trans/non binary. Today is a story about self belief and giving others the gift of the same - and is brought to you with Image Salon.

We start the week with Vincent Laforet, whose work as a leading photojournalist has blessed the pages of National Geographic, Time, Newsweek, Life and New York Times Magazine. He is a Pulitzer prize winner for feature photography in 2002 and his pioneering motion film work with Canon stills cameras led the way for film makers who adopted DSLR technology at a time such tech was not considered for feature film application. The episode is supported by Image Salon, for all your retouching needs. Email the show: studio@photographydaily.show

Personal projects are so important to the way we photograph and work as photographers. Today, a preview for a story about a designer and photographer who had an idea to photograph a set of structures as iconic to British summer holidays as Punch and Judy, fish n chips and knotted handkerchiefs instead of hats. It's the End of the Pier Show with Chris Waddell. Join the members area: https://www.photographydaily.show/more

Charlie Clift is one of the go to editorial photographers when it comes to inventive, creative concepts that require pictures that go beyond the typical reception room couch pose. There aren’t many photographers who have silenced Jeremy Clarkson for example by shoving a carrot in his gob, to use a colloquialism. Meet Charlie in the first of a three parter on getting personal.
