Our interview with Matt Dutile, travel photographer, is our first interview in the Road Less Traveled Series. We want to have discussions with people that have a fork in the road and choose a different path than the one they were currently on.
What drives someone to abandon the stability of a PR firm in Arizona and brave the unforgiving landscape of New York's photography scene during a financial crisis? Meet Matt Dutile, a remarkable NYC-based photographer, who shares his exhilarating journey of rediscovering his passion and turning it into a thriving career. From a pivotal trip to Australia that reignited his love for the lens to making calculated moves in a competitive industry, Matt's story is one of resilience, strategic planning, and artistic evolution.
Journey with us as we explore how Matt captures the soul of a destination through his travel photography. Learn the art of storytelling by framing vast penguin colonies in Antarctica or catching the perfect lighting at Bhutan’s Tiger's Nest Monastery. Matt reveals the secrets behind building authentic connections with locals and how a simple Polaroid camera can open doors to compelling and genuine portraits. Discover how Matt's personal aesthetic and meticulous planning create images that are not only beautiful but deeply immersive.
In our conversation, we also touch on the enriching balance between cultural exploration and professional challenges. Hear about Matt's adventures with semi-nomadic yak herders in Bhutan and the magic of lesser-known sites like Oaxaca. We discuss the growing demand for interior photography and the intricacies of balancing travel with commercial projects. Whether you're an aspiring photographer or a seasoned traveler, Matt's insights into capturing the essence of diverse environments and his upcoming photo workshops promise to inspire and educate. Join us for an episode filled with stories, strategies, and a celebration of the world's hidden gems.
