S2E4: The Power of Seeing with Guest Ariel Estulin

Field Notes & F-Stops

We've all been on a trip where we wanted to capture the raw feeling of the wilderness. Dedicated landscape photographer Ariel Estulin started his journey documenting long canoe trips, but he quickly learned that just 'snapping' the journey wasn't enough.

In this episode, we dive into the essential difference between just looking at a scene and truly seeing it. This conversation is an essential guide to infusing your photography with patience and mindfulness.

Ariel shares his personal philosophy: how he approaches the landscape with intention, steps back, and allows the scene to speak its own truth before he ever lifts the camera. This practice is the key to creating work that isn't just a record of a place, but a piece of meaningful storytelling.

Tune in to learn how to slow down, embrace the value of waiting, and elevate your work by letting the landscape dictate your next move.
