In this Episode…
Valérie and guest co-host Debby Cole answer listener questions:
@steph_made_it: How do you stay motivated to go out and shoot with everything going on right now? How often do you go out and shoot recently?
@jsollows: How are you managing street photography in our socially distant world?
@muratoi: How are street photographers adapting under lockdown? Are you still shooting in City locations or are you finding alternatives in sub-urban or urban settings?
