About this episode
The journey of a new photographer can take many paths, but it is in our early years that the foundation is developed and the direction of our work begins. As such, I had an awesome time talking with these week's guest on episode 266 of the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen podcast about his journey as a new landscape photographer. I was joined by a photographer who is relatively new to photography who has impressed me quite a bit in the way he openly and passionately talks about the craft from his position of being an amateur - Devin Rogers . Devin hails from Temecula, California and it has become apparent to me that he has a deep passion for the outdoors and that he will be a name we will be keeping an eye on for a long time. We had a great chat this week and I think you'll enjoy where we take the conversation. On this week's episode, we also discuss: How Devin has approached his development as a new photographer, Devin's thought process about the concept of art and photography, How Devin looks at his own work and other photographers' work through the lens of art, How Devin has approached developing his processing skills, The types of images that Devin enjoys creating, Why Devin feels inspired to make images that represent reality, Devin's approach to balancing full-time work with his passion for photography, And a lot more! Other topics discussed on the podcast this week: Support the show on Patreon . Desert Solitaire by Edward Abbey. Landscape Photographer Discord Channel . Here is who Devin recommended on the podcast this week: Tristan Todd . Blake Randall . On Patreon this week, Devin and I talk about why we think the wide angle grand landscape image gets a bad rap.
