Recently, I've genuinely feared my photography career might be over—and honestly, I think it is. Today, I'm sharing the biggest lessons from 7 years as a full-time photographer, why this chapter is ending, and the exciting opportunities I see coming next.

Why are so many people quitting photography? As the value of a single photo drops with influences from Ai, we explore why this might actually be the most exciting time to be a photographer.

I've been calling myself a "professional" landscape photographer for years. But is this even possible anymore? Is there such a thing? We'll be discussing in today's new video and first episode of the relaunched podcast.Become a Patron - https://geni.us/FirstManPatron

An article has been going around this week claiming Squarespace is screwing photographers. In this podcast I discuss this nonsense article that isn't even really about Squarespace. It more focuses on the free stock photography website, Unsplash. We talk through all the issues and get to the bottom of it as I respond to the article as a photographer who is sponsored by Squarespace.

In this episode I share a few thoughts and frustrations about my 4 years experience as a photographer on YouTube. I also discuss a few things to consider if you are starting a landscape photography vlog.

In this episode we talk about how to predict a cloud inversion. A cloud inversion produces an opportunity to capture some amazing and unique landscape photography. It is a weather phenomenon when the warm air sinks to the surface and is trapped by an area of cold air above, keeping a layer of cloud close to the ground.
