On today’s show, I’m joined by photographer and keynote speaker, Jon Carmichael.
As you’ll hear on the show, Jon’s path into photography came almost by accident and he learned and perfected his craft with no formal training. In fact, for years Jon had never even printed a single photo, but through a series of serendipitous events found himself in the home of Sir Elton John seeing his printed photos for the first time ever.
Jon is best known for his large cosmic photographic mosaics, but received international acclaim after releasing his photo titled “108” of the 2017 Great American Eclipse, which he captured from a Southwest Airlines commercial flight he had carefully chosen because of its optimal flight path. “108” also played a decisive role in Jon’s journey into keynote speaking when he found himself delivering his first speech to over 5,000 Twitter employees after the last-minute cancellation of Elon Musk. Jon has since given speeches at TEDx and NASA where he speaks on the power of curiosity, passion, and perseverance. Jon has worked with Southwest Airlines, Twitter, Dell, ESPN, and with President Obama, the Dalia Lama, and many others along the way.
