About this listen

In this episode of "F-Stop Collaborate and Listen," UK photographer Tom Dauben joins host Matt Payne to discuss his unique approach to landscape photography: creating completely unedited, in-camera images. Tom Dauben shares how he became disillusioned with heavily manipulated photos and found renewed joy and mindfulness by focusing on authenticity and creative constraints, such as shooting only JPEGs and avoiding post-processing. The conversation delves into how his background in the environmental sector has shaped his storytelling with photography, the benefits and challenges of embracing limits, how landscape can influence photographic style, and why honesty in presenting images matters in today’s world of AI and heavy editing. They also touch on Tom Dauben's book "Dartmoor Unedited," his work with environmental nonprofits, and recommendations for photographers with a similar ethos.
