Creating Client-Specific Photography Experiences with Will Cadena

The Workflows Photography Podcast

We speak with photographer, Will Cadena, about his workflows for weddings, fitness and more.

Will Cadena is a photographer who combines a modern, edgy look with traditional photography. His experience has given him the knowledge of traditional photography and the skills to know when and how to break those traditional rules and deliver a whole new look to his images without retouching.

He has been a member of the PPA and WPPI for many years and has been photographing clothing campaigns, high-profile events, and much more for over a decade in the USA and worldwide.

As Will continues to grow as a photographer, he is also growing as an educator and an influential part of the photography community. He was one of B&H's featured photographers. He sees "paying it forward" as an important role for more seasoned photographers. He often talks about how he continues to attend workshops because there is always something to learn. For this reason, he truly enjoys and values his opportunities to speak for some amazing companies, in amazing places!

His inspiration comes from all around him, as he loves to travel, dance, learn many styles of hand-to-hand combat, including Systema and Krav Maga, and seek out new adventures all the time.
