Ep 88 - A Creative Affair with Brie Stockwell & Len Metcalf

This week I’ve got something a bit different.  Brie Stockwell and Len Metcalf both brilliant  landscape photographers in their own right, started their podcast, A Creative Affair, a little while ago after meeting during an after party for Matt Payne’s podcast, F/Stop Collaborate & Listen. 

Their podcast is a  collection of lively conversations, exploring creativity through the art of photography and other creative passions.

 

Brie is an American photographer & life coach who has been exploring her own creativity through her work in nature and landscape photography since 2019. 

 

Brie challenged herself to exhibit 10 of her best images in 2020, in what she calls an "impossible goal".  Through this challenge, Brie learned a lot about herself which has opened several doors in her life.

 

Len began his obsession for photography in the late sixties when his father gifted him his first camera. Growing up in Australia’s spectacular Blue Mountains provided Len with an endless array of incredible scenes to capture. He particularly loves the light and mood of misty wet landscapes, abundant in that region.

 

In 2000 Len opened his own gallery in Katoomba. Combining his flair for both education and photography made perfect sense and not  long after, Len’s School was created.   Len has become renowned as a leading photographic educator through teaching, mentoring and facilitating innovative workshops and tours. 

 

We discuss how the pair view creativity, how their shared passion has blossomed into an online partnership, the vagaries of social media &  photography along with much much more!

 

I hope you enjoy the show!
