89 — Interview with Joyce Tenneson — Michael Grecco — Notes from Jay Maisel

Pho­tog­ra­phy pod­cast #89 fea­tures 2 inter­views that were recorded at the PDN Pho­to­plus Con­fer­ence and Expo in New York last week­end.‚ This con­fer­ence and show hap­pens yearly and is one of the largest photo shows in North Amer­ica. It’s an AWESOME show/conference with all the lat­est prod­ucts and fab­u­lous sem­i­nars from some of the best pho­tog­ra­phers in North Amer­ica. This post/podcast will cover some of the sem­i­nars and other posts will cover some of the products.

Inter­view 1 is with fine art pho­tog­ra­pher Joyce Ten­neson. I’ve been fol­low­ing her work for close to 20 years so it was a real treat to inter­view her. In this inter­view we talk about find­ing a per­sonal style.

Inter­view 2 is with well know por­traitist and celebrity pho­tog­ra­pher Michael Grecco. In this inter­view Michael shares some of his light­ing secrets to achieve a dra­matic portrait.

Finally I share some of the notes that I took in a sem­i­nar led by mas­ter pho­tog­ra­pher Jay Maisel.

Thanks again to Joyce Ten­neson, Michael Grecco and Jay Maisel for allow­ing us to fea­ture their work and for their won­der­ful seminars.

Thanks in advance if you pur­chase through those links. In the inter­est of full dis­clo­sure, I did not actu­ally pay to go see the sem­i­nars, I had a press pass. That said, if I did not think the sem­i­nars were great, I sim­ply would not have writ­ten about them.

    Another great pod­cast Marko, thanks for the inter­views and notes.

    Thanks Marko, another great podcast!

    I really enjoyed Michael Grecco’s take on light­ing. He makes some very dra­matic pho­tos and I appre­ci­ate hav­ing insight into how they were made.

    Take it easy!

  1. […] Many of you know I am a big fan and user of Tilt Shift lenses where I use shift to help con­trol per­spec­tive and to make panorama images. But mostly I use tilt to con­trol depth-of-field inde­pen­dent of aper­ture. I love being able to use tilt to get sub­jects in focus from mere inches in front of the lens all the way to infin­ity (like in the image below). If you want to learn more about why I use tilt shift lenses and how they work go lis­ten to  this pod­cast with yours truly over at Photography.ca. I highly rec­om­mend the pod­casts at Photography.ca (not because I am inter­viewed – it must have been a slow week!) but because there are some really high pro­file pho­tog­ra­phers inter­viewed with insight­ful com­men­tary (e.g. check out this podcast) […]
