The Candid Frame

I found The Candid Frame a few years ago. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of listening to all of the back episodes. Each episode features a photographer who always has an interesting story of the work they do, and why they do it. I’m always excited when I get the announcement that the next episode is available, and I look forward to finding time to listen soon after. I have enjoyed the podcast, books, videos, and webpage so much that when Ibarionex came to NYC to give a workshop, I immediately signed up. I also support the podcast through Patreon, because I’m branching off my business from strictly videography, to that and photography. Ibarionex, and the other photographers, provide a window into their approaches. This gives me ideas to think of what my approach is, and what I want to do with it. I’m still learning, and I suppose I will always be still learning. (Pun discovered.)

Ibarionex has a fantastic way of putting words & questions together that keeps the conversations focused & tasty. He paints vivid mental pictures that make you feel deeply immersed in the discussions and keeps you hanging on every word. Even if the talks drift away from the subject of photography, it always ends up coming back around in a tactful, relevant and super-inspirational way that ties it all to being alive and our love of shooting. Can't get enough, and I have learned so much, not only about each unique guest and their individual paths to success, but about the subtle everyday magic we all tend to take completely for granted. Seeing, listening, playing, breathing, interacting, being. Simple. Life.

While I subscribe to a number of Photography related podcasts, the Cadid Frame is the one I can't wait to listen to each and every week. I'm a little late to discovering Ibarionex, but his approach to these interviewsis simp;y outstanding. While the majority of phot related podcasts out there focus on the gear or specific skills, The Cadid Frame focuses on the photographer and their story, and it is fascinating. A must listen if you are at all interested in photography or simply love to hear people tell their own stories.

I have been listening to this podcast for a couple of years now. It is not a techy camera podcast, but a very interesting series of conversations between Ibarionex and photographers. We hear about careers, interests, how they got started, why they shoot and much more. The podcast app itself is very solid, easy to use and professionally done. Thank you for putting it together and for continuing it for all the years.

I was introduced to The Candid Frame on December 9, 2019. I created a post for my friends to donate point and shoot cameras to a program I’m attending in Oaxaca, Mexico. My friend Chuck responded but sharing Jasmin Mara Lopez’s story. Since then, I’ve been working my way backwards loving every chance I get to learn from very talented photographers. In my heart I feel inspired and taking baby steps to sharing more of my passion for photography. Thank you so much for the insightful conversation!
