Out of grumpiness can spring beauty. Specifically, Ade is grumpy and that seeds a rich, rambling and revealing conversation about the role vulnerability plays in our creativity. If that sounds heavy, fear not, indulge yourself 😀.

In this episode we chat with delightful Ariela Badenas who's a photographer from Vancouver, Canada. She tells us why she loves film, how important community darkrooms are and why she would rather wear all her clothes on top of each other than not have enough space in her bag for cameras when travelling.

Welcome to our mini-series on photographic style! We’ve been wanting to discuss style for ages but didn’t feel we could do it justice in a single show so it was a great topic for our first foray into longer conversations. (Yeah, ok some of the earlier Sunny 16s did go on for hours 😂.)
What is photographic style? How do you get a style? Can you choose a style? How do you learn from others and take inspiration from their work without copying?
To help us dive in, our super special guest is Nick Carver - film photographer, educator, YouTuber and a fellow traveller on the journey to understanding this elusive subject.
Nick recently posted a video on style in his own work. And his website has some awesome collections!
