  • Incredibly wide-ranging and informative

    I can’t recommend this podcast highly enough to photographers at all stages of their commercial / editorial career - especially those of us who are just trying to break in. Heather Elder’s deep knowledge of the business doesn’t keep her from asking the basic questions we all would love to know, and it’s still very informative for those who have been on the inside for much longer. I’m learning so much from each interview! Hope it continues!
