Podcast Episode 87: This is Barbara Puchta
Loved chatting to the fab Barbara Puchta for episode 87 of the Podcast! Barbara is one of the world’s best documentary family photographers, ranking 3rd in Germany for 2020 on This is Reportage: Family, and joint 17th in the world. She shares so much on the episode today, including:
her top tips for improving your documentary family work, how she’s a life coach as well as a photography mentor, her training and workshop partnership with Julia Rose-Greim (who I’ve also interviewed on the Podcast back in episode 60), addictions, her love of coffee, the story behind one of her specific Reportage Family Awards, why she prefers longer family sessions to shorter ones, and so much more…
Podcast Episode 86: This is Nikola Smernic
Such a pleasure to chat to the fab Nikola Smernic for this week’s Podcast! One of the best photographers in Croatia, Nikola was ranked in our Top 10 Photographers Worldwide here on This is Reportage in 2018, and he’s amassed a haul of 11 Awards from us in total (7 Reportage Awards and 4 Story Awards). He talks about so many things today, including:
how he captured one of his specific Reportage Awards (which just happens to be one of my personal all-time favourites, I have to say!), an amazing story about being published in National Geographic (and how that impacted even his own wedding), how quitting his job let him develop as a photographer, behind the scenes of one of his Story Awards that included lions (and not in a zoo!), and so much more…

It’s an honour to reveal our judges for Collection 22! Thanks so much to these five brilliant photographers, who will be assessing the thousands of entries to our Reportage Awards (for the best individual captures) and Story Awards (for a series of 15 – 20 images from a single wedding). Clockwise, from top-left: Moana Wu (China), Stacy Gillespie (USA), Lea Torrieri (France), Johnny Dent (UK) and Andreu Doz (Spain).
