Welcome back!

This episode we are talking with Steve Sherman. I met Steve a number of years ago when he came to Elevator Digital to lead a workshop on his method of split tone printing. Flash forward a number of years, a couple of workshops and a few parties and I was attending the inaugural Photo Arts Exchange symposium in Connecticut with over 50 other photographers from across the US (I was the only Canadian btw). During the PaX symposium, Steve was interviewing everyone about who they are and why they were attending the symposium and what their process is all about but no one was interviewing Steve. So I remedied that…

Steve has been a master mind of a number of different camera clubs, fundraisers and symposiums. He has been a mentor for numerous large format photographers across North America – but he also had a career and a family!

I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Here is Steve’s artist statement….

My interest in the landscape has always been developed with a childlike wonderment, filled with enthusiasm and uncertainty as I venture into a landscape to create a photograph. The mystery of what lies around the next corner has fueled an intrigue and passion that has eclipsed more than 35 years in a blink of an eye. I cherish adventuring with my close friends, who put photography in front of all else, in search of that elusive image. Connecting with these kindred spirits during many early morning and late night escapades has only furthered my passion into an obsession.

Although we live in a world where photographs are used daily to communicate with the world around us; I am drawn to the technical challenges presented by an antique camera and the use of film in the outdoors. Creativity must be embraced during all aspects of the process in order to create a memorable landscape. The technical conveniences of the 21st century are not available to me. I capture mere seconds and sometimes minutes of time that may never return again.

My love of this process has turned into a YouTube channel in order to share my knowledge with whoever is interested. I have also mentored many photographers from Europe, South America, Canada and the United States on my particular process and philosophy. Premium downloadable videos and an online Mentorship Program are available by visiting my website https://www.powerofprocesstips.com/

We look forward to hearing what you think…
