EP 057 with Dan Redfield
from Crude Conversations · host crudemag
In this episode, Cody has a conversation with Dan Redfield, the creator of Alaska Photoventures, a television series that explores Alaska through photography. Although Dan grew up in the outdoors, he didn’t start documenting it for himself until about three years ago, after he decided that this was how he could scrapbook his adventures and family memories. As he puts it: “Instead of opening up a book, we’re turning on either the TV or a computer and watching it.” Dan has a new show called Adventure for Ava, where he helps families with special needs create memories in the Alaskan outdoors. He got the idea after his daughter Ava was diagnosed with Tay-Sachs, a rare, fatal genetic disorder. After all the hospital visits and time spent at home caring for Ava, Dan realized that his most important memories were those spent outdoors with his family. So, with the help of his fiancé Kristen, he decided to use the culmination of his professional and personal experience to help families in similar situations.
