a professional photographer for a long time i am now an artist painter maker creator whatever you want to call it. ive been a follower of Brooks Jensen for several years and even though most of my artistic podcasts are towards painting i find that the one i relate to the most is this one. and even though i also still shoot, Brooks speaks in such a way that theyre not just for photography but every kind of art you work with and a bit of life itself. thank you Brooks Jensen.
From a very experienced professional photographer
Such an honest, gentle, thoughtful, considered and very eloquently delivered show, all while giving thought provoking, interesting and wide ranging photographic advice. Thank you ever so much for what must be such incredibly hard work over many years.
I wish I discovered this podcast months ago! Short, simple, clear, useful.
This is by far the most instructive photography forecast I follow. For a small time investment, every day there is something new and enriching to learn.
