​Sports photographer, Brad Mangin was our guest for this eleventh podcast in the Beyond Technique series. Without question, PhotoShelter is home to some of the most talented and diverse artists in photography. We all know the expression, time flies when you're having fun. Well, each podcast seems to go by in a flash as each guest shares so much insight into their careers and the challenges of being in business today. 

Just like the artists who have joined us on Beyond Technique, PhotoShelter never compromises on the tools they provide for outstanding presentations. Living in an Internet world, each photographer we've interviewed has stressed how much they depend on their website and how the team at PhotoShelter has never let them down.

Brad Mangin was a kick to interview because he was so candid about his love for sports, the importance of the relationships he built over the years and even a few of the frustrations of dealing with the publication world today. 

What I enjoyed the most, besides getting to know Brad, was wandering through his portfolio. Although baseball is obviously one of his greatest passions, there's nothing he can't photograph. And, if you take the time to wander through his portfolio, it's like taking a walk through a sports Hall of Fame and following the history of so many iconic moments.

I pulled a few of my favorites, but they represent the tip of the iceberg in a lifetime career of one of the finest sports photographers in our industry. Every image of Brad's captures the emotion and action of each game.  

Interested in seeing more of Brad's work? Click on any of his photographs in this post to visit his website, blog and store. You won't be disappointed in any of the images he shares. And, follow him on Instagram as he regularly shares great images!

A big thanks to Brad for joining us.  And, a big thanks to PhotoShelter for the services and products they offer each client, and their incredible focus on customer service.  

This is our tenth podcast in the Beyond Technique series and what a kick it's been working with PhotoShelter and these artists. Each artist has shared so much insight into their journey along with their passion for imaging and people. 

Jeremy Horner joins Chamira Young and me on podcast number ten. We caught up to him while he was visiting his parents in the UK. Jeremy is all about people and different cultures. I picked a few of my favorite images from his galleries, but it wasn't easy! You'll see what I mean if you click on any of his photographs in this post.

It became very obvious early in the conversation that a big part of Jeremy's success is about relationship building. It's a topic we talked a lot about, and it's so important in capturing great images, especially when you're outside your element in other countries.
 
A BIG thanks to Jeremy for making time for the Beyond Technique podcast. You'll notice when you look at his galleries he spends a great deal of his time traveling all over the world. And, thanks to the team at PhotoShelter for the services and products they offer each client, and their incredible focus on customer service.  Jeremy's a big fan of what PhotoShelter has done to keep his presentation always looking its very best. 

Chamira Young and I have had a lot of fun interviewing some of the most respected artists in professional photography, all thanks to the support of PhotoShelter.  Each artist has had a different story to share along with a lot of insight into ideas to help you build stronger brand awareness for your own business.

Jamey Price joins us on podcast number eight. He's the first motorsports photographer we've had on as a guest, and as you'll hear in the podcast, so much of his success goes well beyond his skill set. He's a storyteller with his coverage of a race, but at the same time, he's a relationship builder.  He's also an incredibly patient and fun artist to talk to. You'll pick up on his style in the interview, but I've had several conversations with Jamey following this podcast, and he couldn't be more sincere in his love for the craft.

Just a couple of weeks ago, one of Jamey's favorite images was featured on "Why?" It's just a click away if you'd like to hear the backstory on one of his most remarkable images.  

A BIG thanks to Jamey for taking the time out of his crazy schedule and joining us on "Beyond Technique," and PhotoShelter for the services and products they offer each client. Jamey's a big fan of the PhotoShelter team and has visited their offices. The PhotoShelter team makes it so easy to show your images the way they deserve to be seen! 

It's not easy picking a few favorites from Jamey's galleries. He's made it a point to be diverse in his ability to capture the images that best tell whatever story he's working on. Check out two interesting categories on his website, "Published Work" and "Outside." Click on any of his images above and you'll see what I mean!

Working together with PhotoShelter in January, Chamira Young and I launched "Beyond Technique" a podcast that's quickly becoming extraordinary.  What's making these podcasts so worth listening to is the insight being shared by each guest. Each photographer has shared different aspects of their journey to date, and always with relevant topics to think about. 

​Todd Spoth joined us on this new episode. While Todd is all about people, one scroll through his galleries and you'll see a variety of work. On his website, he's described as...a photographer and multimedia producer based out of Houston, Texas, USA. He specializes in editorial, corporate, and advertising photography with an emphasis on creative portraiture. One look at Todd's work, and it's obvious how much he enjoys what he's doing.

In this new episode, Todd shares a lot of great insight into relationship building, paying attention to the details of your business, education, networking and how PhotoShelter has helped raised the bar on how he shows his work. 

Pay close attention to the layout and how clean his site is. Your website today is the equivalent of a bricks and mortar location just a few years ago, but with the potential reach of a magazine or newspaper.  Your site is all about the services and products you offer, and the PhotoShelter team makes it so easy to have an excellent presentation.

On January 17, Chamira Young and I launched "Beyond Technique" an extraordinary podcast series thanks to PhotoShelter. We know there are hundreds of places you can find support to build your technique and skill set, but what about a great resource for growing your business? 

Christina Peters joins us on this new podcast, with a perfect topic, photographing food.

​Even though you might not have food photography at the core of your business, it comes up so often. Wedding photographers for example regularly need food shots as a critical part of the details of storytelling for the album. Then there are those of you who get requests from clients who need images of food, table settings etc. You do the best you can, but it's not your expertise. Well, Christina is just the person to give you a little help!

Check out her website with a click on any of her images in this post. Her diversity is remarkable and includes everything from food and beverages to environmental portraits of chefs, farm animals and macro. If it's related to being on the kitchen table, odds are Christina has captured it!

Not only will you see stunning images in her galleries, but pay attention to the layout and how clean her site is. She's very open in this interview about how she wanted her work to be presented, and It's all thanks to PhotoShelter. Today more than ever, your website has the same power of a bricks and mortar retail store but with far greater reach. The PhotoShelter team makes it easy to accomplish.
