Love this interview Ben. So much good info here. Thanks for sharing!

[@adventureStaley]

Thank you Frank 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@EnsoIlluminations]

Ben, thank you for introducing me to the work of Mr. Rode. You did a great job of interviewing him and allowing him to tell his story and share his personal Nashville experience. He, and you, are visual storytellers and use the power of a single image to share the stories that Mr. Rode's subjects tell in a 3-minute song. Again, thank you. I look forward to your next adventure in art. PS - I ordered Mr. Rode's book.

[@adventureStaley]

Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for supporting Ed!

As a photographer, a former Nashvillian and ex-wife of a country music singer/songwriter, this interview really got me. How I wish I had taken my camera everywhere and captured every moment. Great interview with a great photographer, Ben. Thanks for all you do.

[@adventureStaley]

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Wow, I wasn't sure I was willing to sit through all of this, but this was quite fascinating.

[@adventureStaley]

Thank ya!

[@janromo9753]

Ben took me a few sittings to get through this one, but it was great. Thanks for sharing these stories and artists.

[@adventureStaley]

Appreciate you so much man.

[@theblackmanarmedwithacamera]

I WOULD SAY THIS IS TWO PHOTOGRAPHY GUYS TALKING ABOUT MAINLY MUSIC...MAINLY COUNTRY AND NASHVILLE. THEN THE LAST BIT BEING ABOUT "PHOTOGRAPHY" TO WHERE SOMEONE THINKING MASTERCLASS WOULD WOULD'VE WANTED TO CLICK THE VIDEO! MY FAVORITE PART BEING THE VERY END WITH THE TIPS! YOU'RE A AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER WITH A DOPE STYLE! I WISH YOU DID A "MASTERCLASS" VIDEO WHERE THE TITLE ISN'T MISLEADING! THAT'S JUST HOW I FEEL!!! I LOVE YOUR OTHER VIDEOS THO!

[@adventureStaley]

No need to yell my man. I hear ya loud and clear. Thanks for the support.

[@steadfast_1669]

Ben, your content is continuously so good, so refreshingly direct and honest. Thank you for that! If we ever get the chance, do you think you could get Mark to talk to you for an hour about photography?

[@adventureStaley]

Thank ya very much. Odds are good that it will happen when we are geographically compatible.

“I wish I could stamp CURIOUS on people “

[@adventureStaley]

YES

[@johnupper5225]

"are there a lot of songwriters in Nashville?".... LOL. He is SOOOooo lucky that Chet wasn't a guy to roll his eyes and tell him to come back when he knew something about something.

[@adventureStaley]

Yes. You have to be skilled and good and ready. And most aren't. But luck is so important to these things too.

[@jasongold6751]

s a photographer who worked in new, news and documentary! I couldn't hear photojournalist AGAIN! Too long, I quit!
