Hey there! I’m excited to share the latest episode of the Perceptive Photographer Podcast. This episode is particularly special to me as it marks the 499th episode, leading up to the big 500th milestone. In this episode, we dig into the importance of understanding the purpose behind a photograph and how you can learn to see better by critiquing before you ever grab the camera. To help you with this, I have a fun exercise designed to have you visualizing and critiquing photographs without actually using a camera. So check out the podcast for all the details on how to get started making better pictures without the camera.
Also, don't forget to check out the upcoming workshops on color photography and the creative process if you want to deepen your understanding and skills in your work.
