Many people are familiar with Brad from his years at KelbyOne, as Scott Kelby‘s assistant. Assisting Scott Kelby was one of the best possible exposures to just about every facet of photography and videography.

Assisting Scott followed a couple of years assisting another world-renowned photographer, Joe McNally. While assisting Joe, Brad worked on shoots for National Geographic, Sports Illustrated, FedEx, Nikon, Golf Digest, and more.

Thanks to this rare education, Brad’s skills are what you would expect coming from that kind of background – he can photograph just about anything.

Episode Notes

Way back in Feb 2018 He Shoots, He Draws was born. It started as a weekly podcast and in those 159 weeks, it’s published 150 episodes so the plan is kind of working. The show has been graced with some amazing guests, over 100 5 star reviews left on iTunes and a very loyal following listener base, a couple of thousand downloads away from 250,000 downloads from over 100 countries. To say they are both chuffed to bits is an understatement. So thank you to everyone who has listened and shared, it’s very much appreciated in a very saturated podcast market. Dave and Alan have a quick catch up before going back into some great upcoming guest interviews over the next few weeks.
