Focused Photographers Podcast
85 episodes - English - Latest episode: 14 days ago - ★★★★★ - 14 ratingsWe've all been to a motivational conference or workshop. The presenters are inspirational, but the real learning happens outside the classroom. Microphones, pens, and paper are exchanged for drinks and snacks. Conversations flow as photographers share how they do business. The destination for each photographer is the same, but how we get, there is so vastly different.
Daniel Moyer created the Focused Photographers Podcast based on the idea that the most valuable tool for learning is a deep dive into a topic from multiple perspectives. Every two weeks brings a new topic to be explored by a host of guests from different perspectives providing a course-like experience for listeners!
