Great Interview with a Great Photographer

One of the best in a while

I really enjoyed this interview. Thanks for doing it. Please keep producing more content (interviews), yours is one of my favorite podcasts.

I appreciated the aspects of the business, and having to work hard to market ones self. I don't do that, but would like to in the future. The idea of sending 3x5's or 4x6's to someone in the business is something I might try.

You might get a kick out of this fake magazine cover I made...

Jon, you're "chippy" photographs are stunning. Believe it or not, I've never seen one--other than the blur of one--before. Have you considered creating a more professional website?
