Ep 200 - Exploring Landscape Photography with Kristel Schneider

Originally from the Netherlands, Kristel Schneider moved from a corporate communications background to building a meaningful career in fine art and landscape photography. Now based in Auvergne, France, Kristel offers insight into how her deep connection with nature influences both her creative process and subject choices.  She discusses the emotional and artistic intentions behind her books *VARIATIONS IN TREES* and *RIVERSCAPE*, emphasizing the beauty in everyday natural elements. Kristel reflects on the challenges of managing photography as both an art and a business, and how collaboration—such as her multimedia project with a composer—can expand the emotional range of her work. Her intuitive approach, focus on natural light and texture, and dedication to authenticity allow her to transform ordinary moments into compelling visual stories. I hope you enjoy the show.
