Hey Wicked Hunters, Excited to announce this week guest for The Art of Photography Podcast with John Weatherby.   John Weatherby, a skilled photographer from Tampa, embarked on his photographic journey while juggling waitering duties during his college years. His initial foray into photography began with managing social media accounts, which sparked an interest in enhancing his photographic skills. This newfound passion led Weatherby to invest in professional gear, including a DSLR camera and lighting equipment. Breaking away from the hospitality sector, Weatherby turned his lens towards the scenic vistas of Tampa Bay. His unique captures of the city quickly garnered local admiration and underscored his potential to transform his hobby into a thriving career. In 2015, Weatherby established Weatherby Photography, a venture that has since collaborated with prominent names like Uber, the University of Tampa, and the Home Depot. Renowned for his vibrant and innovative depictions of Tampa, Weatherby excels in presenting the city through a creative lens. His portfolio, however, is not limited to fine art; it also encompasses commercial and architectural photography. Weatherby's philosophy revolves around the gratification of turning a beloved hobby into a sustainable livelihood. He finds immense joy and fulfillment in not only pursuing his passion but also in adding value to the lives and businesses of others through his artistic talent.   You can connect and browse through more of John’s work below: https://linktr.ee/whereisweatherby Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whereisweatherby/ Website and prints: https://johnweatherby.com/ --- alternative ways to listen to the podcast: Spotify - http://bit.ly/twhspotify Apple Podcast - https://bit.ly/Theartofphotography  Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/TheArtOfPhotographyWithStanleyAr  Website: podcast.thewickedhunt.com  Tune In (Alexa) - https://bit.ly/TuneInTheArtOfPhotographyPodcastWithStanleyAr    For those of you who want to connect with Stanley Aryanto, you can go to the following: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewickedhunt/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thewickedhunt/ Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/thewickedhunt/ https://www.TheWickedHunt.com/ ----- Transcription   John Weatherby  0:00  It gets really confusing really fast.

Hey Wicked Hunters, Welcome back to The Art of Photography Podcast, Today I want to welcome Peter O'Hara.Pete considers himself “A guy trying to live out adventures I created in my head as a child while flipping through National Geographic Magazines.” The majority of Pete’s early creative career was spent working in the Canadian television industry, providing the fortunate opportunity at a young age to travel the world while developing my skills as a cinematographer, editor, and photographer. With these skills, he began working on branded projects with agencies and brands such as Ikea, Buick and Lexus before beginning to focus my expertise on television development collaborating with companies such as Disney, HGTV, Discovery Channel and The Property Brothers. Pete says,” While these projects allowed for personal and professional growth, after 10 years in the industry, I was ready to take on a new challenge. Though I always loved my time spent abroad, it wasn't until spending two months travelling to New Zealand that I discovered my love and passion for outdoor adventure photography and filmmaking. Through this realisation, the course of my career naturally shifted, and I began to invest more time learning how to improve my skills and the art of adventure storytelling. I am a professional drone operator with advanced drone certification through Transport Canada and aim to enhance these stories by taking to the skies. My goal since beginning this creative venture is to share my passion for exploration and create content that will inspire others to spend more time outdoors and in nature as well as give back along the way.” Highlights over the past few years are working with Travel Yukon, Tourism Vancouver Island, and Campbell River Whale Watching, JAR of Hope Foundation raising awareness for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

Hi Wicked Hunters,  Welcome back to another week of The Art of Photography Podcast.  José Ramos is a landscape photographer and psychiatrist based in Lisbon, Portugal. His photographic career began in 2004, with a body of work strongly focused on long exposure technique and storytelling. His images are multi-layered, starting with the immediate attention-grabbing landscapes bathed in exquisite light, moving to the symbolic detail of archetypical natural elements, and then completed with the written reflections accompanying each artwork. José divides his time between his artistic and medical career, strongly feeling that there is a creative synergy between both crafts, where the commonalities and differences of each discipline mutually enrich and foster his artworks. His photos have been featured in National Geographic printed editions and many other international photography magazines, exhibited in collective and individual shows, and sold as large format fine art prints and NFTs.  You can learn more about Jose: https://www.joseramos.com https://instagram.com/joseramosphotography https://twitter.com/jose_ramos https://linktr.ee/joseramosphotography Other ways to listen and subscribe to the podcast: • Spotify - http://bit.ly/twhspotify   • Apple Podcast - https://bit.ly/Theartofphotography   • Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/TheArtOfPhotographyWithStanleyAr   • Website: https://podcast.thewickedhunt.com      • Tune In (Alexa) - https://bit.ly/TuneInTheArtOfPhotographyPodcastWithStanleyAr     For those of you who want to learn more about The Wicked Hunt Photography by Stanley Aryanto: • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewickedhunt/    • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thewickedhunt/  • Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/thewickedhunt/  • Photo prints: https://www.TheWickedHunt.com/ Don't forget to leave a review on the podcast if you enjoy this conversation.

Hey Wicked Hunters,  Welcome back to another episode of The Art of Photography Podcast. Today I am sharing a conversation I had with one of the best aurora chasers out there! Adrien Mauduit is a 33-year-old Science engineer, professional photographer, cinematographer as well as a science author. Born in France in 1989, he has always been passionate about nature, space, and the night sky. After completing his M. Sc. in Canada, he moved to Denmark to teach Science and Art. It is also where he encountered his first aurora.   Adrien found unconditional and unequivocal love for the mesmerizing phenomenon and bought his first camera to try and capture it. Since then, he’s traveled to many countries within the auroral zone like Canada, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, and Finland in search of the elusive Green Lady. Today, Adrien made his former hobby into a full-time job-based in Arctic Norway, where he permanently resides.   He now works relentlessly to produce innovative and educational media of our world under the night sky. Thanks to his scientific and artistic pedigree, Adrien always strives to bring the best quality into his work. His many years of experience chasing the aurora under harsh and inhospitable conditions allowed him to get worldwide recognition. Adrien’s aurora and milky way still shots are particularly well known but his innovative Astro-timelapse sequences made him a pioneer in the nighttime documentary industry over recent years.    LINKS:    You can use my LinkTree where all my links are: https://linktr.ee/nightlightsfilms    LINKS (aurora):    - https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/  - https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/.html    Link to the photos that we discussed in the podcast: Photo of phoenix-shaped Aurora - https://www.instagram.com/p/CYZ-SvRMeb1/  Raindeer under the Aurora - https://www.instagram.com/p/CiixTHpsKdP/  Milky Way and Aurora in one frame - https://www.instagram.com/p/Cif33-DMvaF/  Other ways to listen and subscribe to the podcast: • Spotify - http://bit.ly/twhspotify   • Apple Podcast - https://bit.ly/Theartofphotography   • Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/TheArtOfPhotographyWithStanleyAr   • Website: https://podcast.thewickedhunt.com      • Tune In (Alexa) - https://bit.ly/TuneInTheArtOfPhotographyPodcastWithStanleyAr     For those of you who want to learn more about The Wicked Hunt Photography by Stanley Aryanto: • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewickedhunt/    • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thewickedhunt/  • Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/thewickedhunt/  • Photo prints: https://www.TheWickedHunt.com/ Don't forget to leave a review on the podcast if you enjoy this conversation.

Hey Wicked Hunters, welcome back to another episode of the podcast.  This week we have a fellow photographer Kenneth LeRose, who put a lot of his passion into crafting one-of-a-kind photos. Living a nomadic life since 2017, he is a full-time photographer and educator, hosting dozens of group masterclass workshops and 1-on-1 photography adventure workshops every year all over the country. For him, photography isn’t just about capturing an image. It’s a free-flowing way to express my creative side using my camera as one of the main tools. As with many tools, there is much room to grow and become more in tune with your craft.  His passion lies just as much in sharing his skills, techniques and teachings as it does in guiding students to hone their own skills and/or discover what photography means to them. Another way he found photography inspired a creative side that he never knew was through writing. He writes poems alongside his photos which reflect the images, experiences and people along the way.

Hey Wicked Hunters,   I am excited to have Grant Swinbourne be part of The Wicked Hunt - The Art of Photography Podcast.   Grant Swinbourne is a photographer from Sydney, Australia.  He produces fine art images from his travels around the world, including seascapes, landscapes and travel images.   Grant had a camera in his hands early, starting with 110mm film Instamatic cameras migrating to an SLR in 1984.  Whilst his photography remained an interest, it was one that took a back seat to his career in IT,  until he switched to digital photography in 2004.  It’s now gradually overtaken his time and is now his full-time career.   Known mostly for his beautiful seascapes & cityscapes from along the East coast of Australia, he’s also amassed a large portfolio of travel photography from many countries.  Grant has had images published in several magazines, including Viajes National Geographic, the Spanish language travel magazine for National Geographic.   In 2021 he was the driving force behind the establishment of the Aussie Artists Collective (https://twitter.com/AussieArtistCol) a collaborative team bringing together over 70 Australian artists displaying their work in two virtual galleries. Grant now runs educational workshops around the Sydney area to help beginners and intermediate photographers to improve their skills and learn new techniques for creating artistic landscapes and seascapes.

Hello Wicked Hunters,  Welcome back to The Art of Photography podcast, today we have Rachel Wood with us sharing her journey and passion.  Ever since she quit her office job and bought a camera in 2019, she has been on a world tour of exploration and discovery as a professional photographer. Some of her favourite images were captured in uncommon places: a Paleontology dig in Argentina, a solo expedition in Mongolia, and on a journey to Antarctica.   She's passionate about using her photos to advocate and raise funds for conservation and charity organizations. She also prides herself on being a patron to women in photography and BIPOC artists. Although you will typically find her taking photos in odd positions, I will oftentimes be spotted at the nearest food truck, trying to taste everything on the menu.

And I was stuck at a gas station in the middle of like Kansas or something. And I could see the gas. But I cannot even afford to fill up my tank, because I was broke. And I knew I wanted to get to my friend's place, which was in like the next state over, but I just couldn't make it there. Because I couldn't afford it.

Of course, before I would take photographs on like, your phones, or like, you know, point and shoot cameras on your travels, but I was never

Hey Wicked Hunters, I'm excited to be talking to an Australian artist who has made good wins in NFT world. New Light Visuals is the label for all visual work by artist David Fairs. David has been a photographer, designer, animator, cinematographer, editor, sound designer and colourist for over fifteen years. Working his way up the chain to the role of Creative Director, being on sets and in studios with some of the biggest talent and crews in Australia.  David now defines his art as an important escape from the stresses and anxiety of daily life. A process akin to meditation that has resonated with many and will now be the focus of his work going forward. Supporting mental health institutions and viewers to provide as much relief from the negative energies we all experience regularly. Taking time out to produce these images is as therapeutic witnessing them as it is appreciating them for the viewer.    If you want to learn more about David's work, you can find it here: Link to social media: Website - Newlightvisual.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/newlightvisuals/  Twitter - https://twitter.com/newlightvisuals/  NFT Arts - https://www.newlightvisual.com/nft-art  Other ways to listen and subscribe to the podcast: • Spotify - http://bit.ly/twhspotify   • Apple Podcast - https://bit.ly/Theartofphotography   • Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/TheArtOfPhotographyWithStanleyAr   • Website: https://podcast.thewickedhunt.com      • Tune In (Alexa) - https://bit.ly/TuneInTheArtOfPhotographyPodcastWithStanleyAr     For those of you who want to learn more about The Wicked Hunt Photography by Stanley Aryanto: • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewickedhunt/    • Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thewickedhunt/  • Masterclass: https://www.TheWickedHuntPhotography.com      • Photo print: https://www.TheWickedHunt.com/   Don't forget to leave a review on the podcast if you enjoy this conversation.
