6: Tryn Rose Seley - Helping People Remember Who They Are With a Single Photograph

Your friends and family expect you to bring your camera to birthday parties and holiday dinners. You pick up your camera before the broom when your kids spill flour all over the kitchen floor. You're the family photographer. Every other week, I share my conversations with photographers about their work and their families. How can we take better photos of our family life? Why are we taking all these photos in the first place?

I listen to podcasts while I go on walks. In the case of this podcast it’s like going on a walk with good friends who love taking photos of their family as much as I do. And I am so happy they let me in on their conversation. 

Always relatable, always enjoyable, always inspiring. Jenny thanks so much for returning early! What a treat when I went to listen to a podcast and saw your latest one.

I love this podcast

Wonderful show and great community!  Jenny is motivational, kind, and a great interviewer!

Love it!

Sandra Coan

I'm excited to share this interview with Sandra Coan. Sandra is a mother of twin boys who photographs families and newborns on film in her Seattle studio. She's been in business for seventeen years and loves sharing what she's learned in those years. On today’s show, we talk about how she began taking photos for people as a business. She tells us about the path she took to discover what she does. Sandra didn’t start shooting film in a studio, she did some photojournalistic weddings along the way. Sandra talks about finding out who her people were - the people who wanted exactly what she wanted to make and how to talk to them. If you are starting a photography business or run one now, you’ll love listening to Sandra’s enthusiasm for business and also for helping others have as much success and fun as she’s having with her photography business. Even if you have no interest in ever starting a photography business - you’ll still love hearing from someone who has created a life they love so thoroughly. Enjoy the show. The new year is coming. Are you thinking of starting a daily photo project? I'd love to have you join me and other listeners. Sign up for more information.

He’s the author of many books including The Creative Fight, Visual Poetry and People Pictures.

Chris talks about an exercise to help us slow down with our cameras and just use one button. A listener asks if Chris has a good photo of each of his family members and if he doesn’t  - does he have the same pit in his stomach she has when she thinks about the photo that doesn’t yet exist of that person? A few other things we talk about are being present as parents and photographers, insurance and the idea of luck. Chris's Tedx talk: http://chrisorwig.com/tedx/ http://thefamilyphotographer.org

Steve Simon

Steve Simon says learning about your camera and how to use it is important because it helps you get your camera out of the way. After that, you can get on to making great photos. We talk about the importance of personal projects, seeking critique and how much you can see when you just talk a simple photo walk.
