Episode 38 Tara Shannon

Ex Super Model from the 70’s, 80’s & 90’s

Welcome to Episode 38 (Part 1) Yep! you got it another lovely double episode, with two times the fun!

We’ve really been looking forward to this episode. Today Myself and Jake talk with the still ever so beautiful and talented Tara Shannon, a Super Model who graced the covers of all the top fashion magazines from the 70’ 80’s and 90’s,  and has been in the modelling industry for 45 years. She was defined by one label: Supermodel

Also an Actress, Tara’s worked with some of the most famous Fashion Photographers on the planet, including Helmut Newton, Irving Penn, Albert Watson, Richard Avedon, Herb Ritts, Horst, Ruven Afanador and many many more.. She has been on the cover of virtually every Fashion Magazine on the planet, featured in advertising campaigns for Calvin Klein, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent, Dior and more; She’s and even married Spider Man at the Shea Stadium in front of 50,000 fans which Stan Lee officiated.

We have the privilege of diving into some of Tara’s past and listen to what the modelling world ‘used to be like’ when the modelling world was super fun back in the hay day.

Tara takes us an incredible journey, of why she was so successful, what made her so popular and how hard she had to work to get there and keep it.

We listen to some great stories, and I mean only some, of the fun shoots she’s had with some of the worlds greatest photographers, and we even dive in to what it was like to work with them and try to find out a little about their shooting style.

Tara shares with us details of what makes a good model and how photographers can get the best out of a model, and what hard work involves. 

Not only was Tara in front of the camera but she also documented nearly all of her shoots with BTS shots of her own, in fact she has a whole library of images of people like Helmut Newton, Avedon, Irving Penn, Herb Ritts and many more that she shot on her own Pentax 110..

This episode is just a gold mine of beautiful interesting detailed information and stories full of passion from this very super talented lady, who is still just as beautiful ever. An episode that would suit any creative and most certainly a deeper interest for the Photographers and models of this world.

Don’t forget to listen to Episode 39, which is part 2 of this glorious episode.

No Joke, we could of spoken to Tara for at least a week!

Episode 52 GREGORY HEISLER Legendary Portrait Photographer, Author, Educator (Part 2)

Episode 52  GREGORY HEISLER (Part 2) Legendary Portrait Photographer, Author, Educator

Welcome back to part 2 of this beautiful interview with Greg, we hope you enjoyed Episode 51 where we heard how Greg got to where he is today.

Greg has been so open about his thoughts and ideas and also his vision when he's photographing different subjects, which kind of makes us think about things a little deeper than just lights, camera, action. 

Let's get back into the episode where we dive deeper into Gregs mind and thought processes of shooting Portraiture that reveals your subject emotionally. Don't forget the Rapid Fire not so Rapid fire round - where we always have a giggle with some very random questions for our guests.

Greg also shares why his White House privileges were revoked after photographing one particular president....How stories can be mis-interpreted by viewers...

We discuss more of what it takes to reach a level of success to shoot 74  Covers for Time Magazine. Greg always shares his views on the business way back when and now, how they're so different but not really that different if you take the time to look at it with a modern changing approach.

Greg is iconic in the portrait world and for good reason, he's certainly someone I looked up to throughout my career. A very humble and logical man with a great mind for a practical and creative approach.

We just want to thank Greg for his time and honouring us with over 3 hours of amazing conversation for this podcast, an amazing iconic Photographer and a very genuine, warm and giving person.

What a lovely chap!

Episode 51 GREGORY HEISLER Legendary Portrait Photographer, Author, Educator

This is a 2 part Episode, because Greg's career has so much we wanted to dive into.Don't forget to listen to an even more interesting and details part 2 in Episode 52. 

In today's Episode we're going to be taking a very inspirational dive into the world of Portrait Photography and I mean Portraits that have an immense impact, we’re also going to be asking what lighting gear do you ‘really’ need, how has the commercial photography world changed and what does it take to be successful and shoot over 70 Portraits for cover of Time Magazine in today's world! - These are just some of today's fun and interesting topics.

Welcome to Episode 51, and today we’re talking with the legendary and very humble NY based Photographer, author, educator and now professor Gregory Heisler, a man whose illustrious career has spanned over 35 years, in which time has seen him photograph luminaries ranging from Bill Clinton to Bruce Springsteen. He is renowned for his technical mastery and thoughtful responsiveness and to be honest I think we can say what Greg doesn’t know probably isn’t worth knowing. 

Greg is iconic in the portrait world and for good reason, he's certainly someone I looked up to throughout my career. A very humble and logical man with a great mind for a practical and creative approach.

And if you know Greg you’ll know that he looks damn good in a bow tie, I wonder how many he actually owns?

Episode 50 RICK WENNER Award Winning Portrait & Editorial Photographer

Episode 50 RICK WENNER Award Winning Portrait & Editorial Photographer

In today's Episode we're going to be taking a dive into the Editorial and advertising world of photography but more so concentrating on Portrait Photography, but not just your normal run of the mill portrait shots. How do you connect with a person to get that ultimate shot is one of the many topics of today. 

Welcome to Episode 50, and today we’re talking with Long Island, NY based Photographer & Director Rick Wenner, a man who’s translated inspirational messages and intriguing individuals into emotionally powerful portraiture. Rick likes to invoke a little humility and wit into his shoots which has made him realise that great portraits are born when casual conversations paint the true colours of momentarily guarded strangers.

In the professional realm, Rick devotes much of his artistic energy towards editorial, corporate and advertising projects and his personal work is propelled by people that inspire, and simply chronicling the characteristics that distinguish a person from average to unique.

Rick appreciates some of life’s little treasures like a nice hazy IPA or a good bourbon, and still has a thing for cool hot rods and low riders, well this episode is where we get down and low with the man himself.

Episode 48 LEE ROMNEY ARRI Regional Business Development Manager

Episode 48 LEE ROMNEY ARRI - Regional Business Development Manager

Welcome to Episode 48, and today we’re talking with the Charismatic Lee Romney, who’s the Regional Business Development Manager for Arri here in the UK. 

Now most of us know who Arri are but for those that may not be that familiar, Arri are one of the biggest Producers & providers of Lighting, Cameras, Cinema lenses & camera accessories for the still and motion picture on the planet and have been making these glorious products for over 100 years. If you watch TV or films, there’s a chance it was either lit or filmed with Arri products.

We're going to be talking about some of the Arri Lighting, Camera and accessory Products, and touch a little on their new studios...

In addition to that Arri have brought me a new piece of lighting kit that I tested nearly 2 years ago when it was still in its prototype stage. Here we have the full working production model of the Arri Orbiter, an amazing piece of lighting kit for both stills and moving image.

Now I know on occasion Lee appreciates a fine ale or two , as well as some good food to go with it, but .. the personal stuff aside this guy knows a thing or two about Arri Cameras and Lighting, despite the confused look on his face right now.
