I interviewed Paul Atkins who runs Atkins Photo Lab in Adelaide - Australia's oldest print lab! We spoke about the importance of the physical print, nostalgia, re-branding in business (with design-led innovation), finding your people, wedding photography, and the highs and lows of carrying on a family business.
"I'm terrible at change. It's my biggest problem... so for me to survive that is to trust people who are better at change and to let them do their thing... and then to help them, and to still be the person that they can turn to, and be carrying the load of nostalgia with them..."
