Welcome to episode 256 of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen!
This week on the podcast, I was joined by a travel, landscape, and stock photographer from Italy, now residing in France, Francesco Carovillano.
Francesco and I had a wonderful conversation about his journey and some revelations he has made while pursuing multiple careers in the arts.
On this week's episode we discuss:
- Francesco's transition from 3D computer graphics to travel photography and now landscape photography,
- How his work as an animator has influenced his work as a photographer,
- Stories and lessons learned about his work on a stock photography project in New York City,
- How he has found success in the stock photography market,
- And a lot more!
