The Photo Xperiment podcast is an interview based photography podcast where Andrew Hellmich focusses on getting inside the heads of working professional photographers. This is the photography podcast where you will hear answers to the questions you want answered about why your favourite photographers do what they do and how they do it. More than that, Andrew will dive deeper and find answers to what makes these photographers tick, how they achieved their style, what equipment and techniques they use and just how they got to where they are today. The perfect compliment to the business side of photography and the Photo Biz Xposed podcast, also by Andrew Hellmich - The Photo Xperiment Podcast looks more at the creative side of the professional photographer behind the images. These interviews concentrate on what the photographers do, their philosophy, the thought process behind their photography, why they do what they do. The idea is to get inside their head and learn what makes them tick. The show is not a how to take photos or what camera and lens should I buy but more about living life as a photographer and pursuing the image before the cash.

Audio Diary 5 – London Documentary Wedding Photographer Mark Seymour

Mark Seymour of www.markseymourphotography.co.uk hosted an industry dinner that coincided with my time in London and I was lucky enough to be invited along. There were photographers, high-end function coordinators, a photography business coach, an album company representative, a wedding marketing startup sales person and an incredible meal hosted by Mark and Karen at their lovely home.
The idea of these dinners/get-togethers (this is the second time Mark has hosted a dinner like this) is to network, make friends and meet other professionals from within the industry on a more personal and relaxed level than something like a conference or workshop. And what a success it was!
In this candid interview, recorded the morning after the dinner while walking through Mark's home, admiring his collection of photography, which includes an original Henri Cartier Bresson, and his library of photography books, Mark opens up and shares his thoughts on wedding and street photography, workshops, the dinner, making it as a photographer in today's market, collecting photography, the learning curve and so much more.
I hope you get as much from this interview as I did in recording it. My other hope is you come away from this episode with ideas of your own to meet and mingle with other professionals in your area and see what these relaxed gatherings can do to enhance both your life, knowledge, business and love of photography and what you do.
