LensFlare 35 is a weekly show brought to you by Dave Warner. Dave interviews Jay Watson and puts ALL the content in the player, including the podcast and the images video with a more conversational approach. (Editor’s Note: Once again, please forgive the poorer audio quality – I’m still trying to replace equipment from the lightning strike! However, it’s better than the last LIVE show!)
Jay specializes in lifestyle and environmental portraits of people on location. His work involves shooting for editorial, advertising, clothing, music, entertainment, industrial, and corporate clients. Elemental Magazine once wrote “he shoots the crazy sh*t,” and an early issue of Garage Magazine said “Jay came to California to raise free range artichokes.” Some of these things are true.
In this episode, Jay talks about his artistic style, tintype portraits, social media, his most challenging project, the perfect assignment, video, and whether he sees the demand for video outpacing static images in the future. We created a multi-media show of his images with an explanation of each one with the full podcast interview at www.lensflare35.com .

Episode 0058: Interview with Troy Paiva, Night Photographer
LensFlare 35 is a weekly show brought to you by Dave Warner. This week, Dave interviews night photographer Troy Paiva. Wandering the deserted back roads of the American Southwest, Troy Paiva has explored the abandoned underbelly of America since the 1970s. Since 1989 he’s been taking pictures of it . . . at night, by the light of the full moon with a technique called ‘light painting’.
Since 1998 his Lost America site has been online in one form or another, and Troy’s low cost / high impact lighting techniques have been adopted by amateur and professional photographers all over the world.
In this episode, Troy talks about light painting and what it is, why his sole focus on it, what market there is for this work, how he chooses his locations and books that he’s published on this type of work.
