I enjoy interviewing photographers, especially ones that take photos of things I love, like the outdoors, and activities like surfing and snowboarding. My guest this time on Wild Ideas Worth Living is Mark McInnis, an accomplished photographer who works with a lot of my favorite brands and publications. Many of his photos are set in the Pacific Northwest, and he loves shooting pictures of freezing-cold climates, empty waves, and stunning landscapes.
Mark has a great personality and a positive outlook on life. We talk about how Mark got his start taking photos, how he contacted his favorite photographer to be his mentor (who happens to be a guest of the show), and how he makes a living doing editorial and advertising work around the globe.
Not only does he have a great personal story (I’m going to let you listen to hear it for yourself), but Mark has great advice for those starting out. He shares how he’s made a living as a photographer, and how you can get started on your own path.
