Is Black & White photography still relevant? That question has echoed through my mind more than once. And I know I’m not alone. In this week’s podcast episode, we take a slow, thoughtful walk through that very question — one that touches every artist’s soul at some point in their journey.
As a photographer deeply rooted in feel — in mood, in soul, in the quiet stories shadows can tell — I found myself looking at my black and white film images and wondering… do these still matter in a world of algorithms and perfection?
This episode isn’t just about answers. It’s about reflection. It’s about stripping away the noise and asking yourself what your work is really saying — and who it’s saying it to.
Because photography, when done with intention, has the power to pause time. And when your images come from a place of truth, they’re never out of date. They’re eternal.
We talk about embracing imperfection, telling deeper stories, and finding new ways to share our vision — not for likes, but for connection. And most importantly, we explore why black and white photography — soulful, imperfect, and deeply human — is not only still relevant in 2025… it may just be more important than ever.
So if you’ve ever looked at your work and quietly asked, “Is my photography relevant?” — this episode is for you.
