Photographing the Landscapes of Transylvania | Dorin Bofan

Mixing family and photography isn't always easy.  Today's guest on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, Dorin Bofan, recently became a new father and has been grappling with the realities of spending less time in the field as a landscape photographer. Dorin is based in Romania, deep in the heart of Transylvania, and makes personally-expressive images of his home country.  On episode 331, we discuss: How Dorin got into photography. What it is like living in Transylvania as a landscape photographer. Dorin's approach to making more personally-expressive images. The differences between documentary photography and nature photography. Why Dorin makes photographs. Balancing family and photography. Living a more sustainable lifestyle as a photographer. The way in which Dorin organizes his work on his website. And a lot more! If you enjoyed our conversation, you can listen to our bonus episode on Patreon where Dorin and I discuss his adventure of running an entire mountain range in 25 hours.
