In this chit chat photography podcast episode, I talk about Don McCullin and the emotional cost of photography, including war photography, ethics, and the long-term impact of witnessing trauma through images. I also reflect on film photography, shooting film weddings, creative burnout, and why real, honest photographs still matter. This episode is for photographers who want a deeper conversation about intention, longevity, and the weight photography can carry. ⸻ SPONSORS & DISCOUNTS Use MPB to buy & sell used photography gear: https://bit.ly/MPB-Oh-Shoot Get 15% off Aftershoot ️ https://aftershoot.com/friends?ref=cassidy PGet 50% off Honeybook ️ http://share.honeybook.com/cassidylynne ⸻ ⸻ FOLLOW & LISTEN TO OH SHOOT!
