At the beginning of this year Aaron Dieppa started a daily video project he called The Big Picture, and even had me on as a guest a few months ago. In this podcast David and I talk to Aaron about his motivation and inspiration to take on a big project like that, lessons learned along the way, and the importance of being transparent and honest with your clients.

I get asked all the day what gear I have in my camera bag so today I put together a video of going through my camera bag and seeing everything that is in it. If this is popular, I will get other photographers to show off what’s in their bags so let me know if you want to see more of these from some more popular photographers.

Kerry and David talk to Thomas Hawk who has a goal of having a million images published before he dies. To put this into perspective, that is 300-400 images posted online every week! You think putting up 1 image a day is a cool project, try 30-40! Thomas talks about his gear, his workflow, and his motivation. Hopefully this will inspire you to take on your own photography project regardless of the scale.
