Ep24 - Jason Pettit: Seeing Our Photography as an Extension of Ourselves

Join Kim as she speaks with Canadian photographer Jason Pettit. Despite only beginning photography just 5 years ago, Jason has created some very deep and meaningful imagery in this time. This comes partly down to his ability to connect with his subject and channel his life experience and emotion into his photographs. Photographing mainly his immediate local area, he has learnt to see and love it in all its beauty.
