5 Things you Can do to Elevate Your Images02 Oct 202300:22:17

On today's adventure, we're hanging out on the shores of Moraine Lake - in the rain, of course - after hiking into Larch Valley during larch season and talking about five little things you can do to elevate your images.
One of the things I find people asking about fairly consistently is what starts separating people when you know the rules of composition, and you know how to break them, and when to break them, when you know your exposure triangle and how to use your camera and all those good pieces, why is it that some people's images have an extra spark or just something a little bit different or better about them?
And so that's what we're going to talk about. Here are some of the things you can do that could possibly be that next bit you need to elevate your people photos.

Welcome Back! The Travel and Adventure Photography School Returns!24 Jul 202300:24:46

Welcome back to the long-awaited return of the Travel and Adventure Photography School podcast! I'm your host, Robert Massey, and I can't express how excited I am to bring this show back to life after a 16-month break. Get ready for a fresh perspective as we take this podcast out of the studio and into the great outdoors.

In this episode, recorded beside the stunning Bow River in Banff National Park, I open up about the challenges of creative burnout that led to the podcast's hiatus. As a full-time content creator and photographer in one of my favorite places on Earth, Banff National Park, I found myself struggling to balance work, creativity, and personal time. Creative burnout hit me hard, and I had to reevaluate my approach to find the joy in my craft again.

Throughout the episode, I share my journey of self-discovery, reflecting on the signs of creative burnout, the toll it took on my relationships, and the impact it had on my photography and work. I reveal the strategies and tools that helped me overcome creative burnout, including giving myself space to step away from creativity when needed and finding a new creative outlet through drawing.

I also discuss the importance of reflection and connecting with supportive individuals during challenging times. By reaching out to those who understand and care about us, we can gain valuable insights and rekindle our creative fire.

If you've ever experienced creative burnout or simply want to learn more about maintaining a healthy and sustainable creative journey, this episode is for you.

Travel is picking up again. Countries are reopening borders. Life is getting back to some semblance of what our normal is now. And that means that a lot more people will be packing up their cameras and hitting the air. This is such an exciting moment for many people. To see the world again, have new experiences, and meet people from other cultures. And that also means packing up the camera gear and travelling with it. We put our cameras through a lot, bouncing in turbulence on airplanes, falling from overhead bins on trains, bouncing around on automobiles the world over. To make sure they get to their destinations in working order, ready for you to do your job, you need to pack them properly. Cameras are rugged, but there is a right and a wrong way to pack them.

4 Tips to Make Better Pitches from a Brand's Content Manager03 Jan 202200:12:12

For the first episode back, I want to get into something that could significantly impact your photography business. Something that should help you land more clients and have some money rolling in the door, regardless of if you are working full time or just doing this on the side. I'm going to help you pitch your work to content managers, creative directors, and anyone in charge of making beautiful things at brands around the world. I've taken on this role at a tourism board and couldn't be more thrilled that I get to work with incredible creatives to help promote the destination I work for. And in the now seven months I've been in this position, I've learned a lot about pitching, what works, and what just irritates me. So today, I'm going to give you four tips to help get your pitch through the door and make it more likely that you will get a callback. This is coming from the perspective of someone working in the tourism industry. Still, I think it applies across a broad spectrum of brands and businesses.

As we get going, there are a few things that I'm taking for granted here with you, the listener. You are interested in working with brands to make content - if you're not, this information really won't help you. You can consistently create fantastic images, and you are ready to put in the work. Because working with brands can be a lot of fun; but it is also a lot of time, energy and effort.

Having a photography project, especially a personal one, is an important part of creating photographs.

Because without a project, without a driver, you can start feeling lost and unmotivated to get out and create.
This week we're talking about what a photography project is, how you can formulate one, some things to watch out for, and why this could be a breakthrough for your photography.

4 Alternative Cameras to your Phone or Mirrorless24 May 202100:11:56

We've talked a lot about mobile photography and the gear you can use to make yours better for the last few weeks. And it would seem, from the way I talk on here, that you really only have two choices in the type of camera you use to make things; your phone camera or a fancy interchangeable lens camera.
But that's not all the choices you've got to make extraordinary things.
So, this week, I'm going to give you 4 alternatives to mobile or mirrorless cameras that can help you create things on the go. We won't get into drones, phones, DSLRs, mirrorless, or rangefinder here.
 I want to give you four legitimate options that take you away from the standards of content creation. And open up some new possibilities.
