Pull up
a chair
Between sessions at WPPI 2026, photographers sat down on the Podcast Stage under warm light and talked about the parts of this work that rarely make it into a class. The shoots that changed them, the pricing decisions that kept them up at night, the clients they still think about.
If you were there, this is a chance to hear the ones you walked past. If you weren't, it's the closest thing to sitting on that couch yourself.
