108 - The Dark Side of Likes: Navigating Social Media for Photographers
Photographers have a complex relationship with social media, and in this episode of The Nerdy Photographer Podcast we uncover the not-so-hidden dangers that lurk beneath the glossy facade of likes and follows. Join us as we explore the challenges faced by photographers in the digital age and discuss strategies for maintaining authenticity and integrity in an increasingly competitive online landscape. Along with my guest, Myron Fields, we share a candid discussion on the pressure of curating a picture-perfect online presence. From the relentless pursuit of outside validation to constantly comparising ourselves with peers, we shed light on the mental and emotional toll that social media can take on photographers. We examine the impact of algorithm changes on photographers having their work be seen and the effect of commodification of creativity on the photography community. Furthermore, photographers can benefit from listening and finding out how to focus their energy on social media when it comes to promoting their business, instead of just seeking approval for their posts. As we delve deeper into social media's influence on the photo industry, we offer practical advice for aspiring and established photographers alike. From setting boundaries and managing expectations to prioritizing authenticity over popularity, this episode provides valuable insights for navigating the digital wilderness with grace and resilience. Join us as we embark on a thought-provoking journey into the highs and lows of social media for photographers, and discover how to carve out a space for your voice amidst the noise of the online world.

106 - Breaking Barriers: Building a Diverse Future for Photography
In the world of photography, every click of the shutter captures not just an image but a unique perspective, a story waiting to be told. Yet, the industry has often fallen short in amplifying voices from marginalized communities. Today, it's crucial to explore how we can empower photographers from diverse backgrounds, ensuring a rich tapestry of narratives that reflect the true diversity of the human experience. Visibility matters. Empowering photographers from marginalized communities involves actively promoting their work and ensuring that they receive the recognition they deserve. This can be achieved through exhibitions, features in publications, and inclusion in industry events. When diverse voices are in the spotlight, it paves the way for future generations to see themselves reflected in the field. In this episode of the podcast, I speak with photographer Walid Azami about this is not just a call for diversity; but as a commitment to justice, representation, and the celebration of the many stories that make up our world. By advocating for change, we can create an inclusive photo industry that truly captures the beauty and complexity of the human experience. The camera becomes a powerful tool not just for capturing moments but for rewriting the narrative of who gets to hold it and tell the stories that matter.

Our lives today are dominated by digital screens and devices. Printing photos has taken a backseat to 'sharing' online. We are capturing more photos than ever before, however we are printing less and less. Yet, there's a timeless magic in holding a tangible photograph – a sentiment that transcends the pixels on our screens. While so many memories are often lost in the digital abyss, the importance of printing photos becomes a testament to preserving the essence of our lives.

104 - Capturing the Sound: Music Photography, Mick Fleetwood, and the Maui Wildfires
When photographer Sarah Sharaf-Eldien contacted me about discussing her new book, , which showcases the island and the musicians who play there, I knew I had to have her on. Especially since 100% of the profits from the book will be donated to the Maui United Way Fire Disaster Relief Fund. After a chance meeting, Sarah landed a music photography job most photographers would consider a dream, working alongside Mick Fleetwood, legendary drummer of the band Fleetwood Mac. This led to Sarah working closely with not only local music artists but internationally acclaimed music superstars as well. It only seemed natural to her to use the photos from that time in her life to help with the relief effort in some way. "The word 'Mālama' in the Hawaiian language means 'to serve, honor, protect, and care for.' The wildfires' heartbreaking devastation left hundreds of families displaced, countless businesses destroyed, and a tragic toll of lives lost. It is my hope that the photographs I've presented in Mālama Maui will preserve treasured memories, celebrate moments of magic, and cherish a sense of community that perseveres even in the face of adversity," says Sharaf-Eldien. "To the Ohana of Maui who have lost this historical part of their homeland, I wish Ka Lā Hiki Ola – the dawning of a new day. I sincerely hope that the funds raised from the sales of my book will contribute to the families and individuals who need our support, and will assist in the preservation and rebuilding efforts of Maui and Lahaina."

She began working in a fashion photography studio in Sydney, Australia, and transitioned into the world of music photography while shooting for legendary Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood on the island of Maui, Hawai’i. Her book, Mālama Maui, was published in December 2023 by Genius Book Publishing. The new book chronicles numerous musicians performing at Fleetwood's on Front Street in Maui, between 2016-17. Profits from the sale of the new book will be donated to the Maui United Way/Fire Disaster Relief Fun. While working in Maui, she also photographed iconic music photographer Henry Diltz at The Morrison Hotel Gallery, influencing her perception of portrait photography as an art of storytelling. Her timeless images of musicians and celebrities to entrepreneurs and everyday people, capture intimate soulful moments that reveal the subtle genuine beauty within.

102 - Black Astronaut: A Photographic Journey Into the Unknown
The period of time from the beginning of the pandemic until now seems to have been ten years and at the same time only a few months. It's like we're experiencing some sort of collective time warp. When I stop and think about ALL of the things that have taken place in that period of time, I start to feel overwhelmed. In this episode of The Nerdy Photographer Podcast, photographer Kamal X and I tackle some of that time periods and topics entwined with the time. Kamal's new photo book, Black Astronaut, "gives viewers a striking depiction of a nationwide revolution ignited by the pandemic and the passing of George Floyd. By taking an innovative approach my book creates an unparalleled opportunity to explore pivotal sectors of our country’s unrest." In our discussion, we also touch on subjects ranging from overcoming uncertainty and hostile situations to what it truly means to be yourself. Now that it seems so distant in many ways, we forget how lost and in uncharted territory we really were.

My goal is to tell stories from all walks of life and give a raw voice to the world we live in, through compassion and honesty." You can find Kamal X on his website or on Instagram

While a picture is worth a thousand words, those words can be the key to unlocking the full potential of your brand. The photographers we spoke to emphasized the significance of selecting a name, tagline, and message that not only describe what you do but also convey the "why" behind your photography. Your chosen words are the foundation upon which your visual identity rests. They define your style, evoke emotions, and solve your clients' needs. In short, they tell your story.

100 - Tiny Bang Hypothesis
The grand adventure saga comes to a close. It's possible that I spent way too much time and energy fretting over what to do with the 100th episode instead of just celebrating reaching this important milestone. I wanted to create a huge, epic adventure episode and it took up so much space up in my mind that I delayed putting out the episode over and over because I wanted it to be perfect. This is what they call a 'teachable moment' - don't let perfect be the enemy of good. I hope you enjoy this adventure episode. I'm not sure when they will be back again. That's not to say the Nerdy Photo Crew is going away but the full fledge adventures I've been doing regularly for the last 75 episodes are probably going to become less frequent bonus episodes in the future.

Warning! Flothemes and Pixieset Announcement
Take heed, loyal listeners! Flothemes, a Wordpress template creator which I have promoted on this podcast, and which I use on five active websites, is closing up shop. Listen to this special bonus episode for all the relevant details. Personally, I am very disappointed in how this entire situation has been handled by Flothemes and Pixieset, which acquired Flothemes in 2021. There's a lot to unpack for the thousands and thousands of Flothemes users and unless you were an affiliate member or part of the Flothemes Facebook Group, you may not have received the announcement yet! They are closing up shop and they still have not sent out an email to all of their users.

Should You Be on Instagram Threads?
Last week, Meta launched Instagram Threads and it already has over 100 million downloads! Just what you wanted, another social media app to worry about, right? Well, I have a quick intro to Instagram Threads as well as my pros and cons of the platform so far. The energy on the app is sort of like the early days of Twitter or chat rooms near the turn of the millennium. There's a lot happening and it's all rushing by at lightning speed. Whether the platform has the endurance to stick around in the already crowded social media landscape, there are opportunities for photographers as well as other visual creatives and podcasters (yes, showing some love for my podcast community). From image quality to discovery to how to take advantage of the sign up process to get more followers, there is a lot packed into this short episode. Be sure to listen and then get on threads while the shiny new feeling is still on the app. Use this time to make important connections and broaden your network. And just have fun. Be warned, though, there are some difficulties with the app. But those are growing pains, right? While you are over there, be sure to follow me:

098 - Fair Use or Infringement? Exploring Intellectual Property and Photography
Intellectual property and copyright laws are something that should interest anyone who is involved in the photography industry. The digital age has made it easier and easier for artistic work to be disseminated and copied. In recent years, theSupreme Court has been hearing more and more intellectual property cases and this week they sent down a decision ruling against the Andy Warhol Foundation in a copyright infringement case versus photographer Lynn Goldsmith. However, does the decision make the sometimes murky waters of 'fair use' and 'transformative' works any clearer? What will the impact of the ruling be? What should photographers know about intellectual property law and copyright infringement? Justice Kagan's dissenting opinion complete with visual examples and references to other art forms to clarify her points. About My Guest Jessica Silbey is a professor of law at Boston University. She teaches and writes in the areas of intellectual property, constitutional law, and law and the humanities. In her book, , "Professor Silbey considers intellectual property debates in law and culture as a bellwether of changing social justice needs in the 21st century. The book argues that intellectual property law is becoming a central framework through which to discuss essential socio-political issues, extending ancient debates over our most cherished constitutional values, refiguring the substance of “progress” in terms that demonstrate the urgency of art and science to social justice today."

Are you, like me, slightly concerned with how advancements in AI are effecting the photography industry? On this episode of the , we're diving deep into the world of AI and how it's changing the game when it comes to photography, photo editing, and art.

094 - From Nashville to Nuptials: The Intersection of Music and Wedding Photography in 'In the Key of Love'
Do you really have to know anything about weddings to be a wedding photographer? I guess that depends on the situation, right? Are you in a Hallmark movie? If so, the answer is probably a resounding, "NO!" Listen, I understand that I should not expect every movie that features a photographer to portray the profession in depth or with 100% accuracy. That being said, I do expect there to be at least some connection to reality. On this episode of the Nerdy Photographer Podcast, we're talking about the Hallmark movie "In the Key of Love," where a singer-songwriter becomes a wedding photographer and, let's just say, she's not exactly the best at in the business. When her ex love interest and song writing partner shows up on the island where Maggie is the sole wedding photographer for his sister's wedding, the hilarity ensues. In this episode, we will be discussing the comedic aspects of the movie and how it portrays the world of wedding photography. We will also be delving into the challenges and realities of starting a new career in photography, especially one as demanding as wedding photography. So whether you're a fan of Hallmark movies, interested in the world of wedding photography, or just in the mood for a good laugh, I have a feeling you will enjoy this episode. Join us!
