- What it was like working with Galen Rowell at Mountain Light Photography and some of the lessons he learned from Galen
- His vision behind creating Visionary Wild and the various workshop and expedition types they offer
- The role visual perception plays in how we interpret compositions and how we can use it to creatively and effectively compose our images
- What we can learn from studying other two-dimensional forms of art
- The importance of curiosity, experimentation, investigation, discovery, and reflection in one’s growth as a photographer
- Photography as a practice (couldn’t agree more!)
- The idea of purposeful photography
- His work with the International League of Conservation Photographers and ways that photographers can work with non-profits on conservation projects
