Focusing On The Moment

I know a lot of photographers that work in multiple genres, but Kevin Jairaj is unique among them. One day he might be shooting a wedding, and a few days later college or pro sports. Then, on the days in-between, you might find him doing a fashion or boudoir shoot. What makes him unique is that he is very accomplished in each and every one of these fields.

In just a few short years, Kevin has become one of the most sought after photographers working today, both in the USA and worldwide. He has done photoshoots, weddings, and events in London, Hawaii, Trinidad and Tobago, The Bahamas, Mexico, Jamaica, Anguilla, and Aruba, in addition to the work he shoots in Texas and the rest of the USA. Kevin is also a favorite among the celebrity crowd and has photographed weddings and events for many musicians, actors, and famous athletes.

Kevin’s accomplishments have been highly recognized, and rewarded. He is one of only a few people in the world to hold the Triple Master Title from WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International), as well as a Master of Photography from PPA (Professional Photographers of America). When it comes to competitions, Kevin is at the top of his craft, having won Numerous 1st Place Awards in the very prestigious WPPI 16×20 and 8×10 print competitions, as well as having several prints selected in the PPA Loan collection over the years.

I mentioned wedding photography earlier, and his work in that world has also been highly recognized. He was named a Top Knots of Wedding Photography by the very well respected Photo District News magazine, and his book for wedding photographers, titled “Stylish Weddings”, was published by Amherst Media.

Kevin is also sought after In the sports world. He was chosen by USA Today to take portraits of key members of the USA Summer and Winter Olympic Teams, as well as covering the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, and the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang for them. Along with a recurring role in the hit Discovery Channel Show “Fast N Loud.”, and covering Super Bowls, Final Fours, the World Series, and National Championship games, Kevin has also been the Official Photographer for the College Football Playoff National Championship since its inception in 2015.

Add to all of this Kevin’s recent win of 1st place in the basketball category in the 2022 World Sports Photography Awards!

Kevin Jairaj’s success behind the camera is well deserved, and being named as a ProFoto Legend of Light in 2017 is well earned.

Best Photo Advice You’ve Been Given?

Today is another special episode, at least to me it is. In the almost six years I have been doing this show I have had guests share so much knowledge, and that got me thinking.

“What is the Best Photo Advice You’ve Ever Been Given?” is a pretty open ended question. In fact, if you replace the word “photo” with “creative” it gets even more generalized. Still, it’s an interesting one because for many of us there has been a moment where someone shared something with us that ‘clicked’. It could be a quote we saw, a technique we learned, words of wisdom from someone we respect, or simply words of encouragement at a time when we really need it.

Everyone creative that I know has helped someone else at some point. We have all, in fact, been on both sides of that equation at some point. From asking questions about gear, technique, or business, to answering them for someone else.  Reviewing a friend’s website, critiquing their images, or helping them figure out what rate to quote for a gig are just a few of the ways we, as a community, help each other. It’s part of what makes me feel close to other photographers, many of whom I have never met in person.

Good honest advice is invaluable in any line of work, but in the creative world it can be the difference between getting a gig, or not. That is where today’s show comes from, the desire to share with you really good advice.

I reached out to a number of people I respect in the photography and creative worlds, and I asked each of them “What is the Best Photo Advice You’ve Ever Been Given?” – and the response blew me away. Many of today’s guests are friends of mine, or friends of the show, while some are people I only know through social media. Everyone whose schedule allowed it wanted to join in.

I asked each of them to record a video, of around one or two minutes, where they introduce themselves, share the best advice they’ve been given, and let you know where you can follow them. Some of them have pro setups for doing this (I’m looking at you Bergman), while others used their phones. This is what made it all really work for me. This show isn’t about being on a set, or having a great mic in front of you. It’s all about the great knowledge these pros share, and the responses often surprised me. Spanning everything from technique and technical tips to business concepts, this show is exactly what I was hoping for, and I hope you find it as special as I do.

BTW, while I did reference photography in the question, the responses can be applied to any creative space.

Join me and 19 friends of the show, as we answer the question “What’s the Best Photo Advice You’ve Ever Been Given”, on this Behind the Shot.
