Creative Banter43 - Stumbling ThroughFeeling as though you have found yourself in a rut, and cannot get out, is a feeling all too familiar to many artists. The feeling that you are stuck and unsure where to go next with your creative endeavor. For the past few months, I have been struggling with this feeling, airing my grievances both on and off of the podcast. But as I come closer to re-launching my website, I am forced to face the music. As Ben and I hash this out, we discuss the idea of weekly articles and running out of topics, as well as...2023-03-1546 minCreative BanterEP 22 - Unlocking The CommonsI recently made my way down to Washington DC for the first time in a few years to see an exhibition of Robert Adams’ photography. Adams is a wonderfully inspiring photographer whose work is unlike most I look at anymore. In other words, he isn’t solely focused on nature. This got me thinking quite a bit about my own work, both in terms of print sizes (like usual) and subject matter. After a bit of a rough transition, we talk about a breathing technique Ben has learned of, which he has been toying with recently and believes it coul...2022-10-1249 min
Almost Everything with Jeffery SaddorisDeep Natter 65: The World's Not Over YetFull disclosure, there are parts of this episode where Sean and I get a little heavy. There are simply so many things going on in the world that it can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving us really struggling with what to do and wondering which way to turn. We also talk about the renewed interest in Vero as a potential alternative to Instagram for photographers, especially in light of some of the recent changes on Instagram that prioritize reels over images. I think it’s an interesting conversation all around and I hope you enjoy it.LINKS2022-09-2355 min
Almost Everything with Jeffery SaddorisDeep Natter 61: That’s the WorkIn this episode, on the back of Sean’s recent meetup in London, we’re talking about the social energy it often requires for introverts to engage with other people and the toll simply being out in the world can sometimes take. We also talk about the importance of producing work that allows an audience to meet and engage with both the maker and the work where they are.LINKSThe Warhol DiariesStuart WaplingtonDeep Natter w/Ben HorneSimon BaxterOfficial site of Stephen Fry...2022-08-2648 min
Almost Everything with Jeffery SaddorisDeep Natter 60: The Thing About the WorkIn this episode, I’m joined by large format landscape photographer Ben Horne and we’re talking about some of the challenges and considerations around creating products for an audience and why print still and maybe always will be better than looking at work on a screen.

Branching from this, we speak on expectations, along with how they can often ruin your experience while in the wilderness.

Almost Everything with Jeffery SaddorisDeep Natter 14: Stepping Back to Move ForwardA few episodes back, Sean and I were talking about social media and Sean mentioned that Ben Horne, who is a terrific large format landscape photographer I spoke to on Process Driven 41, had left Twitter and Instagram and was just focusing on the community he had on YouTube. I reached out to Ben to see if he’d like to come on the show to talk about why he did it and how it’s affected him, both personally and professionally.

Almost Everything with Jeffery SaddorisProcess Driven 41: Ben HorneI think Ben Horne and I first talked about recording together in 2018, not long after I was introduced to his work. But as John Lennon famously said, “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans” and for one reason or another, we just couldn’t get our schedules in sync, but I am so grateful that we were able to circle back around and make this happen. I am a huge fan of Ben’s work. I think one of his superpowers as a photographer is capturing the quiet drama of big places — subjects and scenes that most of us w...2021-04-221h 09
