Hey, you wanted the best? You got the best!!! Okay…so how do you decide what the best photography podcasts are? There are literally hundreds of photography podcasts out there! The answer is that you can’t really determine “the best” because everyone is looking for something different. Some photographers want a podcast that will teach them new skills, whether photography or business related.
Other photographers want a podcast that has interviews with that give them insight into the creative process and journeys of other photographers.
And then there are the photographers who want a photography podcast that is purely entertainment.
The list below contains podcasts that fit all of these categories and more!

Just a reminder, this list is always open for new additions! If there’s a podcast you would like me to consider, head over to my Instagram or Twitter and let me know.
The Nerdy Photographer Podcast
Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher | Everywhere Else
A bit of shameless self promotion…but the island of St. Lucia can’t be wrong! Also, we are consistently the #1 Visual Arts Podcast on Good Pods. The Nerdy Photographer podcast blends interviews with working photographers with technical tips and a little bit of useless information in every episode. It also has something NO OTHER PHOTOGRAPHY PODCAST has – animated adventure episodes! Oh, and lots of world-building. Seriously, do you know another photography podcast that has those?
Wedding Photo Hangover
Web | Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | Stitcher
Looking to learn about wedding photography? Well, then this is probably not the podcast for you. Hosts Steve and Dustin bill the podcast as “the finest in phototainment” where photographers can “decompress and if you need, to laugh the horrors of this unforgiving world away.”
Definitely a photography podcast to listen to if you just want to relax for a bit, be entertained, and don’t need to pay SUPER close attention.

Hosts Dwayne and Mel from the Filters Removed Podcast read anonymous true stories of photography bloopers, hijinks, and shenanigans as well as sharing a few of their own and those of their guests!
This show is filled with funny stories, but it is also most definitely NSFW.

The Candid Frame revolves primarily around interviews with photographers. Ibarionex Perello, the host, invites renowned figures in the industry as well as emerging talent to discuss their work and deep dive into their photography inspiration and thought process.
As a result, this photography podcast has little to do with sharing tips on how to shoot wedding or portrait photography, but instead offers a philosophical and intimate perspective of the photography world as a whole.
