Troy talks about how this project began and what his hopes are for it. Troy is tired of images that idealize family life. His work explores the more ambiguous moments of being a father. Our conversation is as much about what it feels like to be a parent as what it is like to photograph our life and family.

Today's show is with an old friend of mine, Tryn Rose Seley. Tryn Rose works with people who have dementia and has written a book titled, Fifteen Minutes of Fame: One Photos Does Wonders To Bring You Both Back to Solid Ground. In her work, Tryn Rose has found the power of photographs to help people with Alzheimer’s remember who they are. The photos also help the people who care for them have a way to connect with their loved one. Sometimes it’s a photo from the patient’s life, sometimes the photo is of something they love. Tryn Rose also talks about how photographs can help all of us connect with the people around us.

Today’s guest is Chris Orwig. Chris is a father, photographer, teacher, author and he’s just a very insightful, thoughtful person. I spoke to him for the podcast about two years ago and was excited to talk with him again.
In this conversation, Chris talks about becoming disinterested in taking portraits, why it happened and how he feels now. He also talks about looking outside the world of photography to someone who works with troubled horses helped him learn how to connect with the people he photographs. Currently he is challenging himself with studio lighting which he hasn't liked before. Over the past couple years, Chris made the switch from Canon cameras to Sony cameras. We talk about what he thought initially about Sony and how switching has been about more than just choosing a different system.
Chris shares some great stories and insights in this conversation. I know you’ll love it.

Welcome to Season Two of The Family Photographer Podcast!
The first conversation of season two is with LaShawn Wiltz: a wife, mother, blogger and photographer from Atlanta, Georgia.
LaShawn comes from family who is dedicated to keeping memories and giving them to the next generation with photographs. And, she is absolutely keeping her family’s tradition alive while also encouraging her community to do the same for their own families.
In this conversation, we talk about why parent-photographers hesitate to get into photos (perfectionism!) and why we need to do get over ourselves and do it more.
LaShawn and I also talk about our love of daily photo projects and the group projects she does with her Instagram community.
LaShawn tells us about the work she does for brands and also why she doesn’t photograph other people’s families.
This season’s theme is how photography helps. When I asked LaShawn, she talked about making macro photos when her father was dying. She doesn’t take many macro photos these days but making them helped her through those hard days.
We even squeezed in a little gear talk! We discuss the camera she uses and I was trying out when we spoke: the Canon 6D Mark II.
Enjoy the show!
