Valerie invited California based French photographer Antoine Didienne to co-host this week. Together they answer an interesting question about whether or not you can do your best work photographing a person or cause you dislike or disapprove of. They also delve into the difficulty of capturing the decisive moment.

Guest Co-Host

I am a French born/San Diego living husband and dad. I am also a photographer. I discovered photography due to a social enterprise I co-founded back in 2012. It was a slow burn but once I understood the purpose and power of photography, my life changed completely. Even though I have almost always worked on the periphery of storytelling, getting my first DSLR freed me to tell the stories that I thought deserved to be told. Today, I consider myself a documentary photographer, whether I shoot for commercial reasons or for my ongoing personal projects.

In this episode Valerie talks with photographer John Peltier about working for non-profit organizations.

John’s Biography

I’m an Air Force combat veteran and pilot by trade, serving for ten years.  Towards the end of that ten years I wanted to see where else life could take me, so in 2012 I bought a 27-foot sailboat and sailed from North Carolina to the Caribbean.  During that journey I accidentally stumbled upon a small island off the coast of Haiti.  I was introduced to an NGO that has been helping improve educational and nutritional programs on this island.  I had only photographed for environmental NGOs before because I just considered myself a landscape photographer, but the experience in Haiti really brought about a passion for documentary photography with humanitarian NGOs.  I'm still involved with this organization today, other local & international nonprofits, and am an associate photographer at Photographers Without Borders.  It took a couple decades, but I've finally discovered that my calling with photography is to help others.  I call Lake Tahoe home and enjoy all of the year-round activities offered in this mountain paradise.

During this special case study episode, Valerie shares a conversation with Indiana based photographer Dave Dufour. Dave shares his experience doing street photography at Texas State Fair, dealing with an irate mother and the Dallas police...

"Hi Valerie,
I had a rather bad experience in Texas doing street photography at the Texas State Fair this October, involving me, an irate mother and the Dallas police. I'm wondering if this is something you'd want to discuss on the podcast as a kind of cautionary story. I've learned a couple valuable lessons as a result. [...] Love the podcast!!" Dave Dufour

Dave’s Biography

Dave Dufour is the Executive Director of Elkhart Civic Theatre, community theatre in Northern Indiana. Theatre was a lifelong passion, which became his job about four years ago.  He has also been an avid photographer since receiving his first camera, a Kodak Brownie Starmite, when he was seven years old.  Three and a half years ago, he lost his wife, Michele, to cancer.  As part of his recovery from this loss,  he bought a Canon DSLR and started to travel, first to Paris, then later to Nice, France, to take photographs.  He spent a year studying comedy at The Second City in Chicago, where he also enjoys street photography.  For the theatre Dave takes publicity pictures, as well as performance photos and candids backstage.  His favorite cities for street photography are Paris and Chicago.  Dave plans another trip to France in 2019.
