321: Kevin Pepper - The Canadian Ambassador to Mongolia

Immersing ourselves in other cultures can be a very rewarding experience and can dramatically improve our photography. 

On today's episode, I had a blast speaking with Kevin Pepper, a Canadian photographer and fellow Muench Workshops instructor. Kevin and I first met on my first trip with Muench last year to Antarctica and we really hit it off. I became deeply interested in his passion for Mongolia, which was largely the focus of today's podcast. 

On this week's episode, we discuss:

How Kevin transitioned from working for Autotrader.com to being a FT photography instructor.
Kevin's deep immersion into the Mongolian culture.
Tips and tricks for telling stories with our images.
How Mongolia has changed over the past decade.
Kevin's approach to making images within a different culture.
Mongolian Eagle Hunters - their history and why they exist.
And a lot more!
