On this episode of The Photography Lounge, your host Alastair Jolly is honored to be joined by not one but two guests in the lounge. A real power couple in our industry, the incredible Bella Kotak and Pratik Naik.
They discuss the real story behind how they both met but it will be up to the listeners to decide which story they believe to be true.
They also get into the interesting backstories of the winding paths they both took to eventually fall in love with photography and retouching.
There is a discussion about the importance both of them put on personal/passion projects and how much the incredible communities, we have fostered in the photography industry, mean to the motivation, inspiration and love they have for photography.
