Perri Schelat - Processing Grief Through Landscape Photography - a podcast by Matt Payne

Welcome to episode 198 of F-Stop Collaborate and Listen!

This week on the podcast, I had a wonderful conversation with a landscape photographer who currently resides in Montana - Perri Schelat.

Perri has been pursuing landscape photography for a long time and has had one goal in mind: to become an award-winning landscape photographer. Her pursuit of this goal have taken her to some amazing places and she has found a deep connection with Glacier National Park.

In 2018, her world was turned upside down when her husband Tom passed away. Since then, she has used landscape photography as a tool to look inwards to help process that grief and shift her thinking. Perri and I discuss some interesting topics this week, including:

• How she embarked on her journey in landscape photography,


• How workshops influenced her photography development,


• Loss and creativity in landscape photography and the grief process,


• How her photography has benefitted from her personal loss,


• And more

Here is the photographer that Perri recommended on the podcast:

1. Matt Bishop.
