After too long away, Pixels will be posting again on your favorite podcast platforms. Lots of content coming soon! Until then, we’re fortunate to have a returning guest for today’s episode, photographer philosopher Guy Tal. Much of our conversation comes from thoughts in his latest book, Future Hindsights. We talk about creative plateaus, how feeling anxiety can be helpful, and the importance of making time for true adventures. Guy Tal is a professional writer and photographic artist living in the desert landscapes of Utah. He is the author of several books, a blogger, and an educator. In his photographs, he aims to express emotions and moods rather than to document or commemorate the appearances of places or events. https://guytal.com/ Future Hindsights eBook: https://guytal.com/electronic-books/future-hindsights https://guytal.blog/ Thanks for listening!

Those of us who love nature photography enjoy the outdoors and its endless beauty. But how much do we stop to reflect on what it’s telling us about its own place in the world, and what it can tell us about ourselves? Michele Sons has a message that's so needed in this increasingly virtual world, as she invites us to connect more fully with our surroundings. Michele also encourages us to approach our craft with a playful spirit and shares how she has developed her own vision through continuous curiosity. Her newest eBook is "DAWNLAND: Creative, Holistic Approaches to Photographing Acadia National Park." This eBook offers both technical and artistic approaches to photographing one of America's most visited national parks, along with Acadia's physical and cultural geography to facilitate connection to place, and creative prompts for your own expressive image-making.

How does someone go from the strictest of photographic arts – photojournalism – to building a body of work based on one of the most abstract forms of photography there is? I’m pleased to welcome Kaisa Siren to the conversation. From her home base in the Arctic Circle, Kaisa has explored both far afield and close to home. We chat about how she realized ICM as a way to balance her creative energy, making images with intention, and how ICM helps to make the invisible visible. Kaisa is a photographic artist and makes her soul landscape visible with Intentional Camera Movement using northern sceneries of Finland as her backdrop. She focuses on themes related to the seasons of Lapland, and the sensitivity of nature. She lives in row·vuh·nee·eh·mee, at the Arctic Circle in Lapland, Finland, where she works as a freelance photographer. She is widely published in various Finnish magazines and newspapers and has had several solo and group exhibitions in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, New York , Scotland and Germany. She has been a regular contributor to the ICMPhotoMag from its very beginning. She is a co-founder of ICMPhotomag Network Community and ICM Photo Academy, and teaches courses on ICM photography, both in person and on-line, and has been a co-leader of New Beginnings workshops from the start in 2021.

Ready for something a bit different that might make you rethink having people - or even yourself - in the frame? I'm joined by Sara Kushner, and we talk about how she got started putting herself in the frame, why her work can't be classified as glorified selfies, and what emotional, logistical, and technical aspects you want to consider if you're thinking about trying out self-portraiture. Even if you have no interest in putting yourself in front of the camera, you're still going to hear wisdom that will be useful when you are behind the camera. (PS: I had the delightful experience of meeting Sara at the Winter Women's Photography Conference in Estes Park, Colorado in early February. She's just as charming in person as she is online!) Episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2upzRyM4fHQ&list=PLaUQ33Eh9FrrOXCUorA4Co5JrOKDbhNZJ&index=1&t=69s Sara Kushner is an environmental self-portrait photographer on a mission to make life a bit more playful. Through her lens, she celebrates the beauty of self-expression, body acceptance, and authenticity, inviting others to see the world in a new light. Her whimsical, vibrant self-portraits reflect her deep commitment to joy and her appreciation of the natural spaces in which she creates. Sara hopes her work will inspire others to embrace their true selves beyond societal expectations, while appreciating and celebrating the unparalleled beauty found in nature.

We have a million ways to plan out every aspect of our photography time, but my guest today invites us to leave room for the unexpected and in doing so, to be open to what pulls at our eyes and hearts. Wendy Bagnall is a photographic artist who lives in England. The natural landscape is the inspiration behind her work, which is an interpretation of what she sees. Wendy’s approach is unrestrictive and often with an abstract quality, augmenting the light, texture and topography of the landscape, creating pieces that aim to evoke an emotional connection with the viewer. http://www.wendybagnall.com https://www.instagram.com/wendybagnall_/ Resources recommended by Wendy https://www.seantucker.photography/the-meaning-in-the-making (be sure to subscribe to Sean's outstanding YT channel, too! https://www.youtube.com/c/seantuckerphoto ) Rachael Talibart: https://www.instagram.com/rachaeltalibart/ Valda Bailey: https://www.instagram.com/valda_bailey_art/ Vivian Maier: https://www.vivianmaier.com/ Ellis O'Conner: https://www.instagram.com/ellisoconnor/ Did you find this video valuable?

Let's talk about a word we sometimes avoid when talking about our photography: PLAY. I embrace the concept even as I use every other word to describe the process. What's up with that?! Here's why play should be taken seriously and a few ideas to help shift our mindset. By the end, I hope you'll agree with me: play is the way!

Are you ready to ask yourself some big questions in the spirit of being a more expressive photographer? Guy Tal is my guest, and he's going to inspire you to think more deeply about your relationship to photography and creativity. The word “existential” comes up more than once, so I hope you’re game to take a fascinating philosophical journey with us. We talk about photographic promiscuity, the role of ethics in our work, and how to become more open to the world around us. Guy Tal is a professional writer and photographic artist living in Utah. He is the author of several books, a blogger, and an educator. In his photographs, he aims to express emotions and moods rather than to document or commemorate the appearances of places or events.

Mindfulness might be something of a buzzword, but when it comes to our photography, it’s worth the effort to make it a practice, and my guest today gives us some useful tips on how to do that. In this episode, I’m speaking with photographer Beth Young. As you might expect when you get two Beths together, we had a great time, talking about embracing slow photography, finding order in chaos, how constraints help us expand our creativity, and making sure social media isn’t the boss of us. Mentioned in this episode: Embrace the Shake (Phil Hansen): https://www.ted.com/talks/phil_hansen_embrace_the_shake The Paradox of Choice (Barry Schwartz): https://www.ted.com/talks/barry_schwartz_the_paradox_of_choice About Beth Young: Residing in Sacramento, California, Beth Young is a practicing architect and prolific nature photographer passionate about capturing uplifting images that endeavor to communicate the therapeutic effects of photography, both for the photographer and the observer. By employing a palette of bright colors and warm light on the landscape, Beth’s uplifting imagery seeks to conjure feelings of hope, healing, and renewal with an emphasis on wellness and the human experience. Beth Young’s photography is shown in group and solo gallery exhibitions, and is featured in hospitals, clinics, cancer centers, and healthcare facilities across the country. Through her print sales, she commits a percentage of profits to cancer causes that directly benefit patients within her community. https://www.optimalfocusphotography.com/ https://www.instagram.com/optimal_focus/ https://www.facebook.com/optimalfocusphotography https://www.youtube.com/@PixelsHeartandArt http://www.bethbuelowphotography.com https://www.instagram.com/bethbuelowphoto https://www.facebook.com/bethbuelowphotography https://www.linkedin.com/in/bethbuelow/ Acknowledgements: Inspired Creator Grants: Inspired Creator (http://www.naturephotographyclasses.com/inspired-creator) Video Editor: Alex Armitage (http://www.alexarmitage.com) Thanks for listening!
