Joanna Steidle: Beauty from Above (Drone Special)

What happens when a drone meets a school of fish… and one whale? 🐋🛸 Photographer Joanna Steidle has the answer — and the stories to match 📷 A longtime friend and someone who I admire immensely, Joanna is an award-winning drone photographer whose work has been published by media such as CNN, The New York Times, The Smithsonian Magazine or even Forbes, and her drone footage has aired on Disney, National Geographic and Discovery Channel. Joanna is also, to date, the only female DJI-drones Creator (Ambassador) in the USA. In this episode, Joanna shares how she went from a love to race drones to creating jaw-dropping aerial art. We talk about what gear she uses, about what gear you need to start out (and regulations you must know), how to get started in drone photography, what it's like to go viral (after working for long hours every day though), a word about marine life and conservation — and why seagulls might just be her spirit animal. Whether you're drone-curious or just need a dose of inspiration for your next flight, Joanna's stories will have you seeing the world a little differently — from a few hundred feet up and with some good laughs! ***** 📸 See more of Joanna’s work: https://joannasteidle.com/ ***** 🎧 Your Weekly dose of Photography Inspiration: https://thecameracafeshow.com/
