A podcast where you can learn, be inspired and fall in love with photography all over again.
My goal for this podcast is to help you to find hope, purpose and happiness through photography. Whether it’s to
1. Learn the journey, passion and stories behind other photographers.
2. Get inspired and motivated knowing that we all struggle at one point or another.
3. Learn and progress your skill further through these world-class photographers’ experiences and mistakes.
As you see these extraordinary photographers on social media, sometimes it’s easy to think that they’re an overnight success. For that reason, we often expect expensive gear and YouTube Videos will get you there in a week or two, whereas in fact most of these photographers took years to get to where they are right now. Many of us didn’t realise is the hard work and sacrifices these photographers put into building their craft.
So if you been feeling down because you feel your progress is not fast enough, or you have lost your creative mojo, perhaps some of these stories can be an inspiration to bring back your passion.
I’m also wanting to be able to provide a platform for photographers to be able to share their stories past the 160 characters on social media.
Photography is more about the journey, it’s a part of our life. If you’re like us our main purpose for photography is to be happy. Whether it is through:
1. The Wicked Hunts chase and capture unique moments that we see in our life.
2. The memories we get to capture and leave as a legacy for years to come.
3. The journey and challenges to get the photo that we can be proud of and get appreciated by others through social media, awards, publication or other monetary exchange.
Social media following and true fans should follow as a result, but the main purpose of photography is not to get those likes and followers on social media.

The Wicked Hunt
You Better Hold Fast
The Wicked Hunt is a mission to go through unconventional ways to experience and capture unique moments. As a photographer, it is my duty to show a different perspective of the world, hopefully in a better way. The Wicked Hunt isn’t about hunting for the perfect photo.
Instead, it’s about enduring the journey to find and experience that perfect moment. Whether it is a long hike to a unique spot, an early wake-up to find unique lighting during sunrise, a quality time with friends and family or merely a deeper observation of a common area.
The photo was never the goal, it’s simply the trophy, something to capture that perfect moment and something to remember it by. We all dream about a moment in a place at a certain time, but often we’re discouraged by fear of failure and going out of our comfort zone. As a Wicked Hunter, I believe that we should overcome these fear. Life is fragile and precious. We don’t know when our time will come to an end. We only have one shot at making this our life, a life that is driven by love and passion, not fear.
We must take more risks, go out of our comfort zone and take small actions toward our “dreams”, however big or small they might be.
Don’t wait for the perfect moments because they’ll never come. Instead, make those moments perfect in their way.

Ep 40 - How David Fairs dig himself out of burn out to find balance in his life and sold out his NFT project on Solana
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:

Transcription:
David Fairs 0:00 So I really went 24/7 Like I was sleeping as little as I possibly could just so I could keep up. You know, when I when I get hold of something and with work, I go all in like I really do. And it's kind of to my detriment sometimes. So, in January, I burned out properly like I literally couldn't even listen to a conversation in real life
