A photography podcast hosted by Jeff Carlson and Mason Marsh. In each episode we take an aspect of the photographic process that is discombobulated and we seek to make it easy to understand. It’s what we do and we love doing it.

Episode 33: Photo Scout with Daniel Kennett
Most of us have used smartphone apps that help photographers determine sun and moon positions for spectacular outdoor images. These tools have been great scouting resources for planning shoots when moments are fleeting and camera position is critical, but they haven’t been much help when it comes to predicting the weather or reminding you to wake up and get the shot. All that changes today with the launch of Photo Scout, a new iPhone app by Daniel Kennett that can help you plan difficult photo opportunities and then prompt you to see them through. Leveraging cloud-based atmospheric and space weather forecasting services with device-based sun and moon position data, Photo Scout allows you to build photo recipes with multiple factors and then set up push notifications to alert you when your conditions are lining up. For example, if you are hoping to capture the rising full moon behind a certain skyline in clear conditions that will make that shot spectacular, Photo Scout will tell you when the moon will be where you want it, then check the weather when that moments comes, and then send you an alert so you’ll have time to get into position to capture the decisive moment. In this episode, we talk with Daniel Kennett to find out how Photo Scout came to be and what it takes to build an innovative app with complex functions. Check below for a link to download Photo Scout.
It’s worth noting that Daniel and Photo Scout are not sponsors of this podcast, but Mason and Jeff did receive early access to the app for evaluation. Our strong positive impressions of the app resulted in this episode, not any kind of sneaky financial arrangement.
