Today’s guest is Chris Orwig. Chris is a father, photographer, teacher, author and he’s just a very insightful, thoughtful person. I spoke to him for the podcast about two years ago and was excited to talk with him again. In this conversation, Chris talks about becoming disinterested in taking portraits, why it happened and how he feels now. He also talks about looking outside the world of photography to someone who works with troubled horses helped him learn how to connect with the people he photographs. Currently he is challenging himself with studio lighting which he hasn't liked before. Over the past couple years, Chris made the switch from Canon cameras to Sony cameras. We talk about what he thought initially about Sony and how switching has been about more than just choosing a different system. Chris shares some great stories and insights in this conversation. I know you’ll love it. More about the podcast and Chris Orwig on The Family Photographer website. Support the show! Give $12 today.
