This is a body in X and welcome to another episode of the Candid Frame.

Over the last five and a half years, I've interviewed a lot of photographers,

and though I've touched on the business end of photography in some of those conversations,

I've not really gotten into detail with it,

but increasingly I'm realizing that it really is an important aspect.

Whether or not you're trying to make it as a professional working full-time photographer or even a part-time photographer,

there's certain ideas and concepts and practices that are really important to understand.

So when I had the opportunity to talk to Jeff said like recently. It was a long time in the making

I know a lot of people are worried

about their images being stolen outright.

But there's a lot of gray area there that I think it's really kind of important to understand from the point of view of a working photographer. And even though this conversation is just the tip of the iceberg, hopefully it will provide you some things to consider and to think about as you go out there and put your images out on the web and share them on Facebook or try to make a living selling and licensing your images to your clients.

So sit back and enjoy our conversation with Jeff Sedling.

And sorting through those images, cataloging them, organizing them, getting to the point where you can find some of those images quickly when you really need them can really be a chore if you're using traditional methods like creating folders
