This week’s episode of The Grid was packed from start to finish. Scott and Erik kicked things off with stories and photos from their recent Vietnam workshop—including a very close encounter with a train that you’ve got to hear about.
Erik also shared highlights from a sunrise shoot at NASA’s Artemis launchpad, before the show shifted gears into the launch of the brand-new Platypod Bracket & Bounce system, now live on Kickstarter. Dr. Larry T. joined the crew to break down how this compact, flexible flash setup works—and why it’s designed to actually fit in your bag (finally).
Then things took a turn toward inspiration as wedding photography legend Clay Blackmore joined the show to share seven powerful tips on lighting, posing, and shooting from the heart. His insights, along with real-world images and stories, brought it all together in a way that’s both practical and motivating.
From travel and gear to lighting and storytelling, this episode delivered a little bit of everything. Watch the replay below and catch all the tips, stories, and demos in action.
