99: Creativity and the Creative Process

99: Creativity and the Creative Process

Author: M.H. Rubin and Suzanne Fritz-Hanson January 18, 2020 Duration: 38:57
It's the 99th episode, and Suzanne and Rubin catch up on holiday events, the state of their photography, and Neomodern's current Kickstarter project for a new kind of photographer's frame.

Tune into a conversation between two friends who see the world a little differently. Everyday Photography, Every Day features M.H. Rubin, a photographer with a unique background as a student of Jerry Uelsmann, and Suzanne Fritz-Hanson, who brings the perspective of an engaged observer. This weekly podcast is built on a simple, refreshing premise: forget the technical chatter. You won't hear debates about the latest gear or software tutorials here. Instead, each episode feels like you're sitting with them as they discuss the heart of why we take pictures-the joy, the observation, the small moments worth remembering. Rubin applies his thoughtful, artistic training to everyday consumer media, while Suzanne keeps the dialogue grounded and accessible. Together, they explore how to see more creatively, make your images more compelling, and ultimately reconnect with the pure fun of photography. It’s for anyone who has ever picked up a camera, whether a phone or a vintage model, and wondered how to capture what they feel, not just what they see. The result is a consistently engaging and surprisingly insightful podcast that reminds you the best part of photography happens long before you press the shutter.
