Description

What do gale-force winds, a $600 "little piece of glass," and a last-minute call to photograph two presidents have in common? Today's guest: Alec Watson.

In this delightfully unhinged (in the best way) episode of Brazen & Bold, Heather and Alec kick off with a literal gear-rescue mission after a windswept dance shoot, detour through Heather's "iguana phase" chemical peel, and land on some of the wildest behind-the-scenes stories you'll hear this week—like the time Microsoft rang during taxi-in to ask Alec to photograph Obama and the President of China (and why two security teams argued over which memory card he could use).

A former rock musician turned award-winning commercial photographer and film-school grad, Alec unpacks: Why fortune favors the bold (and the persistent) How giving people permission changes portraits—and lives Redefining success when the scoreboard says "not this time" The sprinting metaphor: chasing those 3 seconds of pure joy—even if the other 97 hurt It's funny, fast, and full of creative fuel. If you've ever needed a nudge to say "yes," this is it.
