So many times we find ourselves caught up in and supporting various narratives and perspectives. But how often do we stop, take a minute, back up a bit, and ask, “What else can be true?” After a traumatic scare just before he turned 50, Tampa photographer Ryan Joseph found himself doing just that.

That means a lot of things, but one of the things it means for me is that I don’t have to be afraid or feel threatened by or angry at younger generations solely because they are, well, younger.

And so often, what we do gets conflated with that. One of the first questions people ask each other when they are getting to know each other is, what do you do? Sometimes it’s the very first question. Many of us want to be known by what we do and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Actions speak louder than words after all and again, what we do is important.

This Conversation with Jed TauferMeredith Kestel - EssentialThere are few things in my experience as a business owner and entrepreneur that have been more of a mixed bag than employees. A good employee is worth their weight in gold, and a not-so-good employee can make things very challenging to say the least.

And no matter what the situation was, we always had each other’s back. In adulthood, we’ve had our ups and downs. Most people that know us are aware of this. But I’m here to tell you, even though there have been times when I felt like shooting him, I’d take a bullet for him right now. When I got to sit w...2020-04-2732 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferPhillip and Eileen Blume - Celebrate LifeAs a husband and a father, I find myself looking at other guys are who married with kids and comparing myself. Now, these comparisons are by no means rational. I very little about most of these other guys. I just base my comparisons on what I see and hear and experience. I do the same thing with other married couples. I observe how they act in general and how they interact with each other and I can’t help but compare sometimes. In doing this, I discover those couples whom I consider to be standard bearers for myself. Phillip and Ei...2020-04-2051 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferParker Pfister and Elizabeth Alina - Living the WhyWhat have you learned about yourself in the last few weeks? When we get to the other side of this pandemic, how will your choices have evolved as a result of this challenging time? As I re-listened to this conversation I had with Parker Pfister and his partner Elizabeth Alina from Imaging USA in Nashville this past January, I came at it from a completely different perspective. Our lives have been collectively altered. Things will be different on the other side of this whether we like it or not. And that “different” will look different for everyone. But, after hearing this...2020-04-1350 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferBrooke Shaden - What is Weird?You know those conversations where you start off going down one path and it’s turns into something you never saw coming? Brooke Shaden and I sat together again to talk about, “What is Weird”? We also wanted to cover the concept of “selling out” and some other things, and we did that. But with Brooke, you always get more than you bargained for. She’s very adept at underpromising and overdelivering. She’s also wise beyond her years…an old soul, so to speak. And for me, that means she always has something new for me to learn. So yeah, we discuss...2020-04-0647 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferJosh Hanna - Choose Your Own DestinyThere are many things I love about Josh Hanna. He’s nice. He’s funny. He’s a great photographer and an absolutely gifted compositor. But I think my favorite things about him are that he’s grounded, self-aware, and honest. To me, the best thing about photography in general is that it’s about so much more than photos. Josh embodies this. And we can talk about it all day, but at the end of the day, Josh lives it. That is a beautiful thing. I think you’ll hear quite a bit that you can relate to in this one, fr...2020-03-3047 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferJoel Grimes - The 90 and the 10Hey everyone. This episode with Joel Grimes was recorded several weeks ago at WPPI so obviously we didn’t take the pandemic into account. Joel mentions a workshop, The Photo Creators, he’s scheduled to teach at in Tucson and I just wanted to let you know that workshop isn’t being cancelled but postponed to this Fall. You can find out more information at thephotocreators.com
Thanks for listening. Stay safe, friends.2020-03-2339 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferJohn Hartman - Blazing TrailsI remember when my dad turned 40. I thought he was so old. You know, there’s that “over the hill” thing that happens at 40 and all. Now, I’m 45, and 40 doesn’t seem old anymore. In fact, 60 doesn’t seem old anymore. On the other hand, doing something for 45 years does seem like a long time…but in more of a notable achievement sort of way. Something to be admired and strived for. John Hartman has been photographing for as long as I’ve been alive. He’s an absolute master at his craft and he has some fantastic insights for newcomers and...2020-03-1638 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferRoberto Valenzuela - Beyond the BasicsI got to sit with Roberto Valenzuela at WPPI a couple weeks ago and it was legit. He’s a force. He’s one of those “you can’t stop him, you can only hope to contain him” type of guys. And he really knows his stuff. I love his philosophies and the way he sees things. Roberto is a great balance between an artist and a business person. He’s a master producing amazing images and he has a very strong acumen for numbers and value and time well spent. On top of that, he makes me laugh…hard. Roberto is a C...2020-03-0940 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferTony and Mandy Corbell - The Sum and Its PartsI think one of the greatest joys for us on this Earth and in our lifetimes is finding someone to love and to be loved by. It’s an amazing thing to experience for yourself, but it is also something to behold when you see it in others. Like, when you spend time with two people that just compliment each other so well that you can just say, “yeah, they just make so much sense together.” Tony and Mandy Corbell are like that. They just fit. And it’s wonderful to get to spend time with them. One of the things I...2020-03-0234 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferRichard Sturdevant - All Things ConsideredYou never know what someone’s going to say if you just give them the chance to say it. This is one of things that struck me when I got to sit with Richard Sturdevant for a conversation at Imaging USA in Nashville a couple weeks ago. Richard is one of the most accomplished, award winning photographers I’ve ever met. He’s the Mr. T of the photo world. I say this not only because of his award bling, but also because even though he’s a big, burly guy, he’s got a soft heart…just like Mr. T. And I fou...2020-02-2449 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferCris Duncan On Refinement“Don’t let what you do steal your joy. Don’t let it define you. Use it to refine you.” This is a big part of what Cris Duncan and I talked about at Imaging USA in Nashville several weeks ago. Cris is really focused on refinement in his business and in his life. I took away quite a bit from our conversation but I think the main thing that resonated with me is the struggle of what refinement can look like. When a weapon or a tool is refined in a forge, it’s thrust into an intense heat. Then it’s...2020-02-1737 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferTavis and Amy Guild - Five Touch PointsValue is based on perception. We’ve heard it a thousand times. And yet, it’s so true. So let’s say you’re on board with that. Let’s say you concede that value is, in fact, based on perception. What then? What are some things you can do to really influence your client’s perception of you and your business? Enter Tavis and Amy Guild. Tavis and Amy are powerhouse entrepreneurs from Yakima, WA and they incorporate some fantastic ways of interacting with their valued clients. In order to be profitable, building value is a must for them so they’ve d...2020-02-1037 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferMary Fisk-Taylor and Kira Derryberry - The Power of OthersDon’t you just love spending time with people who have a strong, symbiotic relationship? For me, a perfect example of this is Mary Fisk-Taylor and Kira Derryberry. They host the podcast “Get Your Shoot Together” which you should definitely listen to if you haven’t already. I’ve actually interviewed both of them individually for this podcast, but it’s a completely different experience when you get to sit with them together. It’s the whole Reese’s thing…chocolate and peanut butter are both delicious by themselves, but put them together and you have some truly epic. And that’s really the...2020-02-0356 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferZara Ashby - Circumstance and ExperienceWhen I was a kid, I thought I was going to be a doctor. Even in high school, that was the plan. I job shadowed an anesthesiologist and everything. It was all laid out in front of me. And then, as I got older, I realized that I didn’t want to be a doctor. In fact, I realized that I had no idea what I wanted to do. Through circumstance and because of experience, I’ve found myself here. And it’s been an amazing ride. I think Zara Ashby can relate. For various reasons, she’s found herself photogra...2020-01-2737 min

This Conversation with Jed TauferJarod Schilling - Holds the ReignsBusiness and entrepreneurship has always interested me. I think part of it is because I grew up being supported by a family owned business. Another part is that my wife and i started one ourselves and then I think a big piece is that I associate such a thrill with the excitement and risk and challenge of owning and running your own business. And when family is involved, those pieces are heightened all the more. We’ve always said that the challenges are that much harder, and the victories are that much sweeter. That’s why I was excited to sit...2020-01-1351 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferZach Daniels - Disrupting the SystemWell, 2020 is upon us. And, as usual, many of us take on the proverbial self-reflections that come with a new year. I generally focus on health resolutions…physical, mental, spiritual etc. I don’t always succeed, but I’m not giving up either. It’s a new year and a new decade. Let’s jump right in by setting goals and making a plan to accomplish them. Take your health to the next level. Take your business to the next level. Take your life to the next level. You can do it. This episode of This Conversation features an interview with Zach...2020-01-0647 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferJed Taufer - Some of the Best of 2019Well, 2019 has come to a close. And with it, the end of our second full year of podcasts on This Conversation. We hit our 100th episode this past October and we’re very much looking forward to providing you with more conversations that empower, educate, and entertain. I’ve put together some of my favorite moments from the past year. There were a LOT of them to pour through, so there are many moments that I didn’t have room for. But these clips provide a pretty good idea of what This Conversation brings to the table. It never ceases to ama...2019-12-3034 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferTodd Van Fleet - Created to CreateSometimes better isn’t easier. Sometimes better means more difficult. This was just one of the things I unpacked with Todd Van Fleet as we sat and discussed his belief that we are created to create. Todd is an accomplished creator, but he believes that, in a sense, we’re all creators and that we were made that way. Quite a bit came up as we talked about what that means for him and what he believes it means for everyone else. I’m still thinking about something being better also meaning that it’s more difficult. Part of me doesn’t...2019-12-2339 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferKevin Jordan - How it Works NowI’ll never forget it. There we were in a huge warehouse studio filled with photographers from all over the country…most of whom we knew, or at least knew of, because they were essentially famous within our industry. We were at an invite only gathering in Northern Wisconsin in late 2004 or 2005. I remember being constantly anxious. That was pretty much my default state during those years. Life was moving really fast and big things were happening all around me. We gave a 30 minute presentation to our fellow industry creative entrepreneurs and listened while they gave theirs as well. And I ca...2019-12-1633 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferCarey Sheffield - No ApologiesEveryone has a story, right? It’s an old cliché for sure, but clichés are a thing because there’s some truth to them. I didn’t know Carey Sheffield at all when it was suggested that I ask her to sit with me for a conversation at The Portrait Masters this past fall. I met her briefly and knew right away that I wanted to know more about her. She moves fast, so you have to keep up, but it’s so worth it if you can. Yes, she’s savvy and tenacious, but she’s also warm and endearing...2019-12-0939 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferKenna Klosterman - The GuideI remember discovering what eventually became the educational juggernaut CreativeLive. So many amazing instructors. So much wonderful content. But one of the things that stood out to me the most were the hosts, Kenna Klosterman and, at the time, Susan Roderick. They both had such wonderful personalities. I felt drawn to them and therefore, more to CreativeLive itself. You never know how someone like that is going to be in “real life”, though. And so I also remember the joy of discovering that Kenna and Susan were genuine. Their charm and charisma weren’t just a facade for the cameras. Becaus...2019-12-0248 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferSusan Stripling On Saving MoneyI’ve heard it said that the two most common fears are death and public speaking…and not necessarily in that order. At least not in my case. And although I used to be deathly afraid of public speaking, it didn’t hold a candle to the issues I had with the fear of money. Or, more accurately, the fear of not having any. Growing up, we lost our house. It was the early 80’s and interest rates were in the high teens. Can you even imagine having a variable rate mortgage sitting at around 18%? In any case, I lived through...2019-11-2533 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferLara Blair - Changing GearsMaking decisions, especially big life decisions, that go against the status quo are extremely difficult. I think we worry about what other people will think and say so much, that sometimes we don’t even consider taking that leap or changing gears, so to speak, for fear that we’ll look foolish or flaky. Lara Blair knows this. She’s lived it. But despite the not-so-subtle jabs from others close to her, she follows her heart. She pays attention to her instincts. She listens to that still small voice. And when it’s telling her to take that leap, she jumps.2019-11-1836 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferMichele Celentano - Standing OutThere are a lot of people in the photo industry that talk the talk. And, for the most part, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. If you can get somebody fired up to work harder and be a better person by giving them some words of encouragement, good for you…and them. But some people talk the talk because they walk the walk. There are some people who are really good at motivating you because they know what it’s like in the trenches. Michele Celentano is one of those people. She knows what it’s like to he...2019-11-1847 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferArlene Evans - There and Back AgainI’ve been very fortunate to grow up within a good family. My parents are high school sweethearts and have been married for almost 50 years. Their relationship has certainly seen its ups and downs, but they’ve weathered the storms over the years and their marriage is stronger as a result. I poke some fun at my parents a bit during this interview, but the truth is, I’m grateful for both of them, and I’m delighted to see the grandparents they’ve become to my own children. My family is on it’s own level when it comes to the impor...2019-11-0448 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferMike Hanline - A Family in BusinessWell here it is. Episode 100. It’s been about two years since This Conversation presented by White House Custom Colour got up and running. And what a fantastic two years it’s been. I’ve had the honor and the privilege of speaking with some of my favorite people, not only in the industry, but in my life. I’ve experienced everything from nervousness, to exhilaration…from deep sorrow, to profound joy….from unexpected tears, to bellowing guffaws. I’ve been educated, enlightened, empowered, and entertained. And I hope you have as well. My guest this week has been one of the more im...2019-10-2840 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferJared Platt On Thinking and LearningYou know how some people are just fun to talk to? And how, every once in a while, they’re also fun to listen to as well? I’ve officially released 99 of these interviews and a couple people have sat with me twice. Jared Platt is one such person. And I think he’s brilliant. I had no idea what we were going to discuss, but I knew I would enjoy it. I did. I hope you do, too.2019-10-2150 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferKara Marie On Inspring ConfidenceI’ve found it a joy to speak with someone who’s authentic. I’ve also found that a necessary trait for authenticity is vulnerability. Being able to recognize your flaws or weaknesses whether past or present, is powerful. And I think it can lead to something even more powerful…confidence. I was having some trouble with something the other day and my 6 year old son was watching me. After failing to get it right for the third or fourth time, he spoke up. “Just have confidence, Dad. That’s all you need.” he said as serious as he could be. And he was...2019-10-1433 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferTrevor Ray Will Go ThereEverybody has a camera. In fact, for the most part, everybody has a pretty awesome camera. And that tech just keeps getting better and better. Have you seen the night mode shots that our phones can pull off these days? It’s insane. This rise in technology is just one of the reasons why it’s so important for professional photographers to be able to offer both an amazing experience as well as amazing images to their clients. Senior photographer Trevor Ray from Austin, Texas focuses on both. And he offers some unforgettable options to make it happen. If you want...2019-10-0728 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferCraig Stidham On Selling YourselfJust when you think you’ve heard about everything, somebody comes along and presents some things you’ve never heard…or at least, never heard presented that way. Craig Stidham is a veteran photographer that knows his way around a camera and a salesroom. He’s a big proponent of selling himself and he’s implemented some really clever concepts to make that happen. Get ready to learn from someone who’s been around the block a couple times and is still evolving every year.2019-09-3052 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferChristina Ramirez On Coming Back to the Light(s)Last year I spoke with senior photographer extraordinaire Christina Ramirez about being in a rut. I was struck by her openness and her honesty. It’s one thing to talk about being in a rut after you’re out of it, but Christina was right in the middle of it and she laid it all out there. If you haven’t heard that conversation yet, I’d highly suggest you have a listen before you continue with this one. In any case, we sat down again at PUSH conference in Green Castle, Indiana for an update and, once again, Christina had quit...2019-09-2333 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferAmanda Holloway is DrivenIt’s no secret that some people are driven to succeed more than others. We see it all the time. There are just some people who are laser focused, super disciplined, and tremendously hard workers regardless of their situation or circumstance. And yes, it may be hard to believe, but those people tend to be the ones who come out on top. Now, I’m genuinely interested in why people are the way they are. So when I finally got to meet and then chat with Amanda Holloway, I was surprised to hear her why’s as I was completely unawar...2019-09-1643 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferNicki Hufford Figures it OutI’ve always been fascinated by why people are the way they are. There’s always the nature vs nurture piece which is interesting in and of itself, but that aside, I think there is just so much that goes into what makes us…us. When I sat down with Nicki Hufford for a conversation, I was struck by her vibrance, her positivity, and a sense that she was fierce. Not in a bad way, but in a make-it-happen sort of way. After learning more about her and her background as a successful athlete and a strong competitor, I totally get it...2019-09-0930 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferDani Diamond Knows What He WantsMy uncle has told me time and again that he still doesn’t know what he wants to be when he grows up. He’s currently in his 60s. I say this because there are times when that resonated with me. I’ve never had a singular, all consuming passion that so many people in the photographic or creative industry seem to have. In fact, I’ve admired people that seem to know what they want and are able to be laser focused on making it happen. Dani Diamond knows what he wants. And he knows how to get it. I was fo...2019-09-0234 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferDan McClanahan - Good Photographer/Great DadI know a LOT of amazing photographers. I’ve met people who do things that absolutely blow my mind. And most of them are also good people. I enjoy hanging out with them at various conventions and shows…mostly when we go out for dinner, of course. And then there are a handful of people that are truly great. I believe Dan McClanhan is one of those. He’s an amazing artist but he’s an even better Dad. And yes, that also means friend. He has great wisdom and he’s able to put really big thoughts into just a few word...2019-08-2631 min

Go to ericfloberg.com e r i c f l o b e r g .com - and watch the Tyler and Elle video before you listen to this podcast. Then, of course, come right back. We’ll still be here.
Alright, so, first off. Good job doing that. Amazing, wasn’t it? Now, you’re ready to hear what’s coming from Eric Floberg. He’s in the process of building his business and his brand. He’s doing it one step at a time. He’s d...2019-08-1948 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferAllison Tyler Jones - Building ValueThe story goes that at one point somebody asked Eric Clapton what it felt like to be the greatest guitar player in the world. His response was, “I don’t know. Ask Prince.” I have no idea if this story is true or not, but it’s powerful in that it demonstrates how much it means to be revered by others who are considered proficient in your field, or industry, or niche. The most requested interview that I’ve gotten from other photographers whom I’ve actually interviewed is Allison Tyler Jones. And of course the one I’ve heard from the most...2019-08-1241 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferDarty Hines is a Straight ShooterOne of my absolute favorite qualities in a person is strait forwardness. I’m not talking about right or wrong or good or bad, I just mean someone who tells it like it is. Someone you don’t have to wonder about. Now every once in a while, if you choose to hang with someone like that, you’re gonna hear something you don’t like. But that’s part of the gig. Frankness isn’t always pleasant. There’s a reason why people say The Truth Hurts…because sometimes, it does. But sometimes, that’s what we need to hear in order to h...2019-08-0526 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferGary Box - The ConglomerateThere are some people that can just spout off pearls of wisdom from their experience over and over. Gary Box is one of those people. His brain moves a mile a minute, so you have to be ready for all he has to say. A lot of times, people will listen to podcasts at 1.5 or even 2x speeds. I’d recommend slowing this one down.2019-07-2941 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferDan Frievalt Has a MantraThere are some states that, for whatever reason, have risen above the others in terms of the amount of talent they’ve produced in our industry. In my 20 year tenure, Wisconsin is one of those states. And Dan Frievalt is one of those creatives. In an era where it’s harder than ever to be different and stand out, Dan succeeds at doing just that. And, he makes it look easy which is especially impressive then you consider the sheer amount of talent in his own state. Listen in as we discuss Dan’s thoughts about being different as well as qui...2019-07-2128 min

But I keep finding that many times, people who have persevered come out on the other side stronger and more confident. Abbie Miller is one such person. She’s a riot. She’s brilliant. And she’s strong. Abbie’s been through the ups and the downs. She’s moved several times…she’s actually been told, read threatened, to NOT start a business…and then she did just that in a brand new market. And she’s killing it. Sit back and enj...2019-07-1537 min

Carl never has a mean thing to say about anyone. He’d give you the shirt off his back. He’s a hard worker and man of integrity. And he thinks that refining your creativity actually requires being less refined in general. He also thinks we all need to just take some time, slow down, and take it all in. I was happy to do just that with him this past year at SYNC 2019 in Destin, Florida. Have a...2019-07-0830 min

And yet, some things seem pretty darn huge. Especially when you’re right in the thick of ‘em. Marci and Christy are a mother-daughter photographic dream team from Indiana. They’re really more like sisters. And they’ve endured the highs and lows of business, relationships, and life in general, side by side for over ten years. They know what it’s like to be in tough spots. They know that when you’re going through those hard tim...2019-07-0135 min

And sometimes you don’t realize how hard it was until you’re on the other side. Dave Junion helped my wife and I through one of our most trying seasons. When we fully transitioned our photography business from film to digital in 2002, we had no idea what we were doing. Back then, nobody really did. Or so we thought. Dave graciously gave up his time and helped us understand things in a way that I wonder if anyone else could have. And he made it fun. Simply put, we w...2019-06-1738 min
This Conversation with Jed TauferDan Rowe - Beyond EmulationLearning something new can be tough. There’s no doubt about it. And that difficulty usually tends to increase as you get older. In the creative world, a lot of times we learn by emulation. Dan Rowe thinks too many people stop there. Dan’s a hard worker who considers himself less of an artist and more of a problem solver. He’s from a small town in Indiana, so he has that small town work ethic. In this episode, Dan and I discuss the what’s and the why’s of how he moved beyond emulation to develop his own style.2019-06-1032 min
