#253 SHOOT FROM THE HEART TO CONNECT AND TURN THAT BL**DY APP OFF!
Commercial documentary photographer Finn Beales lives the photographic life of dreams. He has a wondrous inquiring eye wherever he is in the world whether he's shooting work for Cartier, Omega or photographing his own life and passions, a potent reminder that there is story in everything you do and everywhere you go. "Always have your camera with you," as a sentiment screams at me as I look through his Instagram feed, which has amassed half a million like minded followers. He is today’s guest.
Patron of the Day today is Frank Woodward based out of East Tennessee. Mountain, sea, sky, flowers, trees, rivers, birds; Frank certainly studies life around him as you’ll see when you go to his website and Frank, your birds in flight photographs are in themselves studies of patience. Top of your game photographs. Thank you to all our patrons for your steadfast support.
We’re also supported by our friends at MPB.com, the people and website to go to if you want to buy, sell or trade used camera gear safely in the US, the UK or Europe.
