When Harri Met Sally - A Photography Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

This week we speak to documentary family photographer Rowena Meadows.

Rowena is a photographer, relational therapist and crazy bird lady. She sees her work (photographic and therapeutic) with families as an opportunity to validate, reframe and shift the way people see themselves, both as a system and as individuals.

Rowena shares how her interest in psychology and photography go hand in hand through her process, and how this can be a therapy for both her and the sitters she works with. A truly heartwarming conversation.

This week we speak to Isamu Sawa.

Isamu, born in Japan and raised in Australia, has had a life long passion for photography since being gifted a Yashika 35 rangefinder camera from his father at the age of nine. Isamu’s career has spanned the commercial industry from rock and roll to car photography, and later to a beautiful artistic practice which he says has redefined his approach to his work at every level. Isamu says “I believe an image should stand the test of time—delivered through Japanese-inspired discipline, creativity and technical craft.”

A wonderful conversation with a photographer balancing the world of commercial and art photography.
