How Moving to a New Country Changed My Photography | Julien Parrot

Moving to a new country can be an incredibly daunting proposition, especially in the current geo-political environment; however, it can also open up doors to new experiences, cultures, and landscapes.  This week I had the pleasure of speaking with Julien Parrot - a photographer from France now living in Australia. Julien and I talked about how moving to a new country has completely changed his outlook and approach to photography. On episode 310, we discuss: How Julien got into photography. How moving to a new country has re-shaped his photography. How he has adapted to living abroad as a photographer. How not doubting his photographer stunted his growth as an artist. How confidence can be a double-edged sword. How to objectively critique our own work. How photography competitions have helped him in his growth as a photographer. His approach to photographing fireflies. And a lot more! Other topics/links discussed on the podcast this week: Support the podcast on Patreon.
