The HONEST REALITY of being a WORKING PHOTOGRAPHER in 2024 | Bert Stephani

This is the recording of a live broadcast where I chat with commercial and editorial photographer and filmmaker Bert Stephani, an official Fujifilm X Photographer. We start with his process, his lighting, developing your own style and the importance of personal artistic projects, and then get into the honest reality of being a working photographer and still loving it. It's a refreshingly candid conversation for anyone who earns a living from photography, or hopes to.
