Podlamania Photography & Video Podcast

Episode 42 John Huet
One of the most acclaimed sports Photographers of our age.

Welcome back to Part 2 of this fantastic episode with John Huet.

Remember folks, this is a fantastic 2 part episode, so if you haven't already listened to Part 1, head on over there now to tune in to that one first, there's some great content in there.

Welcome to Episode 42, first off we dive straight into the "Rapid Fire not so Rapid Fire' Round, which for some reason always seems to stump our guests for quick answers....

John is no exception but certainly has some very funny answers.

As a recap, today we’re going to talk with John Huet, one of the most acclaimed Sports & Action photographers of our age whose career has spanned over 30 years.  Not one to be easily categorised, despite his reputation as one of the top sports photographers working today, John’s list of clients runs the gamut: Adidas, Bank of America, the Boston Ballet, Coca-Cola, Gillette, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, Putnam Investments, Sports Illustrated, Time Magazine, and the U.S. Marines, to list just a few.. He’s published several books of his Olympic photographs, as well as a book of personal work called Soul of the Game.

In this episode, we continue to talk about the business, how to do it, what’s changed, and what it takes to have a 30 year long career, oh yeah and we’re also going to try and figure out what makes John’s photographic mind tick...

We take a look at the kit John uses and takes with him, why he uses so many cameras and we're interested in why he's not locked down to any specific brand and why variety helps him remain creative.

If having your own exhibition interests you one day, John shares with us why he does them, what the benefits are and how to go about them.

John also shares a very funny story about an 'all expenses' paid Nike shoot in Russia back in the day as the country was breaking up, life as a photographer is certainly not all about the glamour. To know what I mean you have to listen to this story. It certainly has its funny moments...

Remember, when shooting aeroplanes flying tow to the ground, make sure your head is well clear of the propellers going when the plane is going over you!

John has some great insights and takeaways in this double episode, he shares some great info with us from his vast experience over the years.

Such a lovely person to speak with and we could of kept talking for hours for sure.

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did, and we look forward to seeing you in the next one.

Episode 40 John Dolan Editorial, Advertising & Celebrity Wedding Photographer

Welcome to Episode 40,  in this episode we’re going to talk with the lovely John Dolan,  A photographer with a career that has covered decades in the Advertising, Editorial and Fine Art world, but has also seen him in listed in the top 45 of Harper’s Bazaar top Wedding Photographer List; alongside that he’s had the pleasure of photographing many beautiful celebrity clients including Will Smith, Ben Stiller, Kate Bosworth, Bridget Moynahan, and most recently, Gwyneth Paltrow. 

John is a calm and endearing man with a passion to capture those special moments in time for those to treasure forever.

We tackle John to try an understand a little about his technique, his methods and his approach into what makes his work so ‘Unplanned and free’ in his style.

Does a celebrity wedding carry any more pressure than a non celebrity one, well, we try to find out….. especially as both Jake and I are both frightened to death of shooting weddings. lol. It’s just not our cup of tea…

John also shoots a lot of film, which we already love about him, but listen in as we dive deep into what are his favourite cameras, which is his go to film stock and why and how he has become his own walking light meter. 

What’s interesting, is that John still shoots good ole film for his wedding shoots and even recently has still been whipping out the 8 x 10 for some shots - a beast of a camera to say the least…..Although he favours his Rolleiflex it’s not the only camera he carries on his shoot day, John can carry up to 6 different cameras with him to achieve a variety of looks that helps carve his unique creative style.

You see ‘Film is not dead’.

John has such a calming character about him and it was a real pleasure talking to him about his workflow, his techniques and about his business, he is so forthcoming with his knowledge and happy to sit down and share anything you want to ask.

Make sure you listen to the whole episode as there are some great takeaways from this episode, especially if you are into film.

Episode 39 Tara Shannon Ex Super Model from the 70’s, 80’s & 90’s

Welcome to Episode 39 (Part 2) 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 36 Libby DeLana  Award Winning Creative Director, designer, Art Director

Welcome to Episode 36, 

Today Jake and I are talking with the Award Winning Creative Director, Designer, Art Director and Co-Founder of Mechanica Libby DeLana.

Libby has been at the forefront of the Marketing 7 Advertising world for many decades, where her work has won many industry awards including OneShow, Cannes Lions, D&AD, Kelly, Webby, Hatch etc.. In addition she has been profiled by BBC for a series called "The Chain," where leading women figures name the woman who's inspired their success.

Even more impressive is that Libby has taken to going for a morning walk before work, a walk thats lasted for 9 years so far, which has led to her circumnavigating the earth. How many pairs of walking shoes is that? If thats not enough Libby also recently started modelling as well, helping to put models, in their mature years, on the map with a huge impact.

Want to know about marketing your business, what the trends are and how to present yourself to get potential new clients, then this episode could be for you…

We enter Libby’s world to talk about clients and Ad campaigns, what’s the process what things do they need to know from clients to make a successful campaign and how things are changing in these current times of the digital age. Are there better ways to brand a company and not use stock photo libraries! 

We discuss things you should certainly be doing with your business, what clients expect as standard now from your shoot on set as a photographer, if your not filming BTS then maybe you should seriously be thinking about it.

Failure, is it a thing or just an opportunity to make something better, should the word ‘Failure’ be re-branded?

Don’t forget the Fun 10 question ‘Rapid Fire not so Rapid fire round’ in the middle of the show….we have some fun ones today that’s for sure.

Episode 35 Gillean McLeod 

Wardrobe Stylist turned Model at 50!

Welcome to Episode 35, 

Today Jake and I are joined the ever so gorgeous Gillean McLeod, a super talented wardrobe stylist who turned model in her 50’s with her first portfolio being shot at 52!

Gillean is still smashing runways and global campaigns in her 60’s and she certainly shows us how a model should be.

She has styled for some of the biggest brands on the planet, and modelled for some of the biggest fashion campaigns out there, causing a trending storm with her natural long silver colour hair, hair that even our resident Jake Hicks would be proud of! 

Some of her modelling campaigns have created a welcomed storm on the internet, and if you look at her instagram, you can even see her infant of one of her campaigns thats shown as a huge Billboard Ad in Times Square, New York.

We take a little peek into Gillean’s career as a Wardrobe stylist in the Advertising & Editorial world where here career spans over 4 decades, and then we peek into her modelling career, where’s been gracing campaigns for over a decade, and currently is where her career is the busiest today.

Gillean gives us a beautiful insight into her double world of creative prowess and chats about what things can be like on set, both good and bad!

This interview was just so beautiful and Gillean is such a lovely person both inside and out, we have promised to get her back on for another episode, where we might even go back to the 70’s when Fashion, Photography and life was a little more fun.. lol

A great fun episode, and an absolute pleasure to be graced with Gillean’s company too..We can’t wait to have her back on again!

Hugh creates incredible  photo illustrations, ranging from commercial projects to surreal Fine Art Pieces, he takes us into a world that will visually bend your mind with his surreal narratives. His photos reveal other worlds and will take you on a magical story that will move you. 

That aside, his clients include the likes of Vanity Fair, New York Times, Rolling Stone, National Geographic, Fortune, Sony, Toyota, Honda and many many more...

Hugh classes himself as a Photographic Illustrator, his ideas are created from an illustrators perspective and so is his process except he uses his camera as his weapon of choice to capture all of this…

Introduced to photography at a young age by his father, who was a was a photo-instrumentation engineer for MacDonnell Douglas who worked on projects from the Mercury through to the Apollo missions.

Hugh’s work certainly borrows from the art world and you can certainly see a hint of Rene Magritte and perhaps a hint of Salvador Dali in his concepts, but don’t be fooled thinking this is all put together in Photoshop… Oh no… this is where Hugh’s approach and work ethic is completely the opposite as he composes nearly all his work utilising the manual building process of props/ sets and recording multiple process in camera.

Hugh’s mind and work are both amazing, and we don’t boast to understand it all, but visually it’s truly outstanding and mesmerising.

For those wanting to look at the Fence in a landscape image we referenced in the podcast here is the link so you can see what we’re talking about, only then will you appreciate the amount of work that goes into such. shot.

Hugh is such an amazing person with a. complicated creative mind and was such pleasure to interview.

Don’t gorget the 10 question ‘Rapid fire not so rapid fire’ round in the middle of the show.. Always a fun few minutes…
