This weeks episode is a banger! We chat with Elizabeth Gadd, Canadian photographer of portraits and landscapes, and the whimsical combination of the two. Lizzy shares her wisdom on creative ruts, putting emotion into all of her work, enjoying moments in nature instead of getting distracted by a camera, and so much more!! Another first for this episode is the appearance of our first ever canine guest Pepper! I know it seems excessive, but there's not enough exclamation points to explain how great this episode is!!!!

We're back! Thanks for tuning in after a short hiatus from the pod, where we took some time to try and improve some aspects and our approach to what content we're giving you guys! In this episode we catch up with the last month or so and what projects we've been tackling and also new adventures on the horizon and then we dive into a good old camera gear question from @lachiezettl, cropped vs. full frame sensor.

We go in depth with our editing process in this episode, so dive in for some good info on our approach towards translating our photos in to a finished product. To clarify, we discuss a photo in Iceland of the aurora that Cam says we took at the same time, and then Will says Cam was asleep. We took the same photo and then a few hours later, after Cam fell asleep, Will went back and reshot it (in better conditions). See notes below or go to @shootfirstpodcast on instagram for photos!
