After a lapse of time, we're back with an all new PHODcast, recorded shortly before my surgery in January. Mr Joe Crawford (FOTOjoe to YOU, thank you very much) stopped by for a very candid (R Rated language, put the kids top bed) PHODcast. We talk about living The Life in Los Angeles, film school and living in an apartment building with The Exorcist: check it out...

Eric Foley: the 2012 Edition

robert@norman-photography.com (Robert Norman Photography) — Wed, 16 May 2012 07:18:00 -0700

Eric Foley - a glutton for punishment - comes back in here to talk about things that have changed for him and his business in the last three years. He also opens up at the end about some super personal stuff - Eric Foley 'raw' if you will.

Be forewarned: this PHODcast is a tad more abstract than usual ( if that's even possible )

...have fun-take a listen!

Oh yeah - and we talk a bit about Sweet Brown too...

The wine?---You be the judge---this is a good one folks! ( stayed tuned at the end for a mini extra-special addendum. ) Be forewarned, there are a LOT of fun tangents, on which we can blame that on the wine!

robert@norman-photography.com (Robert Norman Photography) — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 19:01:00 -0700

Today we get to know the adorable Cheryl Cronin (seriously---she is SO sweet) who transfixed me enough to convince me to drive to her home to do an on-location PHODcast---unprecedented I must say. However it was so well worth it - not only to hear about her interesting history and to visit her amazing home, but for all the coffee she pumped into my system :)

Athena Blude´

robert@norman-photography.com (Robert Norman Photography) — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 13:51:00 -0700

Something a tad different this time around - Athena Blude´ came in today for a chat despite her apprehension about her being so new to the biz and fearing 'nothing of value to say'. I felt however, that her perspective could be not only refreshing but helpful to others who are starting out in this sometimes confusing business.

If you've listened to any of the proceeding podcasts you know the general feel that this event has produced among the attendees - so I will just let them do the talking. I also want to thank them again for allowing me to do these podcasts at kind of the last minute (like 2 days before is when i think I mentioned it) , as well as congratulate them on such a successful conference! Looking forward to 2011!!!

The always lovely Candice Dowling Copploa of Jubilee Events is my first full-length PHODcast in months! And it was a joy to sit down with this talented wedding planner to get things started again. It is also great to get a fresh, non-photographic view of the wedding biz. Excuse my slightly clogged sounding cold-riddled head during this one.

This is a rather long talk at nearly 75 minutes---once you open that Chardonnay and you never know WHAT will happen!!

How cool is it that Jim Collins, CEO of Pictage, came to attend Inspire Boston 2010.

So here's round 2 - - - thanks for being such a good sport, Jim!!

Well folks, after some time away the PHODcast is back with a bang. And we're revving up again with something a bit different - live PHODcasts from Inspire Boston 2010 in Concord Mass! It seemed the perfect environment for a series of shorter, intimate on-the-spot interviews.

First up to kick things off the illustrious Carla TenEyck - who as my first ever PHODcast seemed the correct person to start off this mini-series!

Break Time

robert@norman-photography.com (Robert Norman Photography) — Wed, 5 Aug 2009 09:00:00 -0700

Howdy, loyal listeners

Due to a few interview cancellations, as well as my and everyones elses busy summer schedules, (i'm squeezing a vacation in there as well this month) we're taking a bit of a break here for a short spell on this PHODcasting business. This is a great time to catch up on your listening to past episodes!

If you or anyone you know would be interested in coming in - or have been meaning too but have been too chicken--now's the time top book a spot. Planners, florists caterers - and of course, photographers--all are welcome

Come on- lets do this, people!!

photojournalist Ross Taylor

robert@norman-photography.com (Robert Norman Photography) — Thu, 9 Jul 2009 09:21:00 -0700

Today we meet Ross Taylor - an honest to god Photojournalist. I was introduced to Ross through John Gayalda, and was immediately enamored with his incredible work, that puts much of the work we wedding guys call 'photojournalism' to shame. Spend some time at his website before you listen, as his stories and descriptions will have that much more meaning. This podcast is probably less 'funny' than you may have come accustomed to, but listen up and you may learn something--
