Well here we are, our first live episode on the road whilst on a shoot. We're at a UK University working with a team of photographers for 5 days, so we thought why not do a show! We hurriedly set up a mic, the audio isn't great so we apologise but it's as live as you can get.
Another week, another episode and we discuss how important it can be to update your camera, just like we have updates on our phones and computers our cameras also need an update. Find out how you can do this and make sure your camera is working at is should be.
Filters...a touchy subject for some! We mull over our thoughts and finally we look forward to The Photography Show and Video Show starting this weekend.
We chat to experienced photographers in the graduation industry so it's essential listening as they give some valuable tips and advice of the the industry. These are working photographers talking to us at an actual shoot. Sit back, excuse the audio quality and join us...

Brooke Shaden is a conceptual fine art photographer specialising in self-portraiture, whose award-winning images are rich in storytelling, and are often simultaneously dark, whimsical, and beautiful. Exploring themes such as beauty, rebirth and decay, her stunning photographs come from a place of exploration and discovery, and a desire to show others a part of themselves. Brooke went from being someone who never thought she would impact the world to creating images that have changed people's lives. She will share the story of how she led the charge into inclusive - and dark - art. Walk through Brooke's process and journey to see how anyone can begin creating ground breaking work that positively influences others.

The murky world of Copyright affects every single one of us. Mark and Kam ask real questions to Graham Everitt a specialist Copyright infringement advisor.
We do away with legal language and ask Graham about situations we've either been in or come across as working photographers. Who owns the photos you take on your own camera? Should you be charging clients for different uses? What happens if someone uses your images on social media?
We had a lot to discuss and it's all over a drink, so real conversation, no sales talk, just straightforward advice, experience and opinions on a very grey area.
You can contact Graham directly at the details below with your own questions; he'll offer you free advice and point you in the right direction;

As photographers should we be releasing or selling RAW files to clients and do they know what to do with them?
We also chat about something that every photographer has....a camera strap! We go through the options and see what works best for us.
