Episode 2.14 - Amanda Jasnowski & Sarah Jacobs - a podcast by Formhals & Starkweather

I met Amanda Jasnowski for the first time after the opening for the Photographers Playbook at Aperture. James Chororos introduced us and Eddy later suggested she should come on the show. I thought it was a good idea. She’s a photographer I’ve known from primarily her Instagram where she has a crazy amount of followers, which as we discussed has some great advantages but also some drawbacks.

I thought she’d make a good guest because she has built a large social media following over the years and leveraged it into a solid career, but she’s also someone whose still questioning the direction she wants to take her photography. We’ve chatted on Facebook a few times about editing and developing ideas for books, which as you all know is a topic we like discussing on this show.

We asked Sarah Jacobs if she’d like to come back on as a co-host and she fortunately (or foolishly) agreed. She’s a fan of Amanda’s work and how she has built her career, so I thought she’d have some interesting questions to ask since she’s more tapped into the commercial and editorial world than I am.
