Ready for something a bit different that might make you rethink having people - or even yourself - in the frame? I'm joined by Sara Kushner, and we talk about how she got started putting herself in the frame, why her work can't be classified as glorified selfies, and what emotional, logistical, and technical aspects you want to consider if you're thinking about trying out self-portraiture.
Even if you have no interest in putting yourself in front of the camera, you're still going to hear wisdom that will be useful when you are behind the camera.
(PS: I had the delightful experience of meeting Sara at the Winter Women's Photography Conference in Estes Park, Colorado in early February. She's just as charming in person as she is online!)
