Joining our affair this week is Aaron Martinez. He is a staff photographer at the Austin American-Statesman, part of the USA Today network, a licensed drone pilot, and an advanced hobbyist landscape and nightscape photographer. Born and raised in El Paso, Texas where he also went to college to study digital media production and multimedia journalism.
In this chat about The Decisive Moment we discuss:
- Is "the decisive moment" an actual moment?
- Aaron's perspective as a photo journalist
- Why it's important in all aspects of creativity
"It sounds like the decisive moment isn't necessarily the final place, it could be a step along the way." -Aaron Martinez
