Episode Description from the Publisher

Learn how to capture deep emotional connections through music photography and visual storytelling. In this episode, photographer, singer, and ukulele player Elsa Thomasson joins the show to discuss the intersecting creative paths of visual and musical art.Elsa shares her journey from singing Édith Piaf as a child to performing at intimate acoustic weddings, detailing how a musician’s sensitive ear can completely reshape the photographer’s eye and creative process."I focus more on maybe energy, emotions. I’m not interested in playing ukulele just without singing. So I think the singing is getting all the ukulele and the ukulele is just serving to highlight the song or the singing."Rock with Elsaelsathomasson.comyoutube.com/channel/UC2i16M6wqiB4WeFz66AisbAinstagram.com/elsathomassonphotographieinstagram.com/elsa_thomasson_musiquefacebook.com/elsathomassonphotographieSpotifyBandcampThe tour(00:00) - Between Melodies and Memories with Elsa Thomasson (01:15) - ‌ (02:02) - Early Singing Roots (03:40) - Why Ukulele (06:21) - Confidence and Technique (10:07) - Photography Origin Story (15:07) - Singing at Weddings (24:30) - One Take Pressure (28:48) - Self Care for Wedding Days (30:25) - Photos as Folk Pop (33:00) - Wrap Up and Where to Listen This episode of Lenses & Lyrics is brought to you by Pic-Time and Flodesk.
