Episode 243 – Capturing Life Through the Lens with Jamie Rogers

Episode 243 – Capturing Life Through the Lens with Jamie Rogers

This week we sit down with photographer Jamie Rogers, whose journey with a camera started as a hobby and turned into a career filled with wild adventures and meaningful connections.

📸 We talk photography tips—like how to add depth, master the rule of thirds, and avoid rookie mistakes (like forgetting your night settings when the Northern Lights are dancing above you in Iceland).

🏔️ Beyond the breathtaking shots of landscapes, Avs, and Nuggets games, Jamie shares how guerilla capturing and persistence helped him break through, plus why he took the plunge into getting Part 107 drone licensed.

🌟 But this episode goes deeper than photography. Jamie opens up about his work with the nonprofit SOS Outreach, where outdoor mentorship builds character, leadership, and community for youth. He also shares his powerful story of choosing sobriety after a family intervention changed the course of his life.

And of course—because it’s The Mike and Tony Show—we wrap it up with some fun, including the bizarre tale of a furry who thought he could join a wolf pack. (Spoiler: nature had other plans.)

Cheers!
