New Wave Creatives: Recent Episodes
George Padilla
In this Podcast we talk to other creatives and pick their brain. We interact with others in order to spread the knowledge and share stories!
Hi, hey, hello everyone - it's been a few weeks. Lots of things going on, and we will be dropping an episode to talk about all of the big changes soon - but before we do that, we want to introduce you all to Kate Birch, a good friend and huge supporter of us. Kate is an up and coming wedding and portrait photographer based out of Portland, OR. In this episode we talk about how she got started, her background and education, and the life of working full time in the corporate world while carrying a heavy wedding schedule. Kate gives us a glimpse into what she likes to shoot for fun to keep herself sane. She also tells us about her new home, and the cool surprise that is buried on her property, and how she has used that to her advantage as a creative photographer.
Kate is a goldmine of information and inspiration and this episode goes over a lot of cool topics. Jump in and enjoy the ride, and we will see you again soon!
