Improve Photography
Hosted by Improve Photography
A video channel for photographers featuring on-location travel vlogs, gear talk, business tips, and software tutorials from multiple hosts.
This is a multi-format video hub for the large Improve Photography online community. It's not a single, consistent show but rather a collection of content types. Episodes range from first-person travel vlogs and landscape shoots with Jim Harmer to detailed, screen-capture editing tutorials with Jeff Harmon and practical business advice.
“The channel's strength is its blend of personality-driven travel vlogs with highly specific, workshop-style tutorials. Unlike channels focused on just one style, it mirrors the complete workflow of a photographer: finding a location, shooting it, and processing the results.”
Who hosts this show
Improve Photography is a large online photography community founded by Jim Harmer. The video channel features Harmer and other hosts, like Jeff Harmon, traveling the world for on-location shoots, reviewing gear, and sharing post-processing techniques. Harmer, a former lawyer, started Improve Photography as a blog and grew it into a major resource with podcasts, tutorials, and workshops before selling the company in 2018. The channel serves as a content hub for the broader community.
