In the age of the smartphone, everyone has a camera with them, pretty much all the time. With social media, anyone can “publish” a photo immediately — with no editor and, if you want, #nofilter. So what does it mean to be a photographer now?
In this episode, we talk with a group of Nashville photographers about their work, their love of the image and their paths to photography. We also explore the profession. What kinds of opportunities are there in our city for working photographers? What are some of the unique advantages and challenges that come with shooting in Nashville? What role does photography play in documenting the life of a city?
Guests:
