Prime Lenses Episode 15 - John Kasko
Manage episode 426996016 series 3584255
John Kasko has shot professionally for over 40 years. In that time he’s gone from dropping expensive cameras at weddings photographing the defining artists of our time from Elton John and Madonna to Steve Martin and seemingly everyone in between. A no nonsense pro with a preference for a simple setup he has seen and done it all and it was great to talk to someone who is still trying to change and evolve their photography over time. It’s no longer about perfection for him and he doesn’t put pressure on himself to always use the “best” camera he has with him. His YouTube channel has me itching to get a flash and some lights, you’ll get the bug too once you spend any time with him.

More about this show:
A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.
