Episode 100 of The Life of PHYS Podcast is a milestone.

What started as a simple idea, that Photography Heals Your Soul has grown into over one hundred conversations with photographers, filmmakers, artists, and storytellers from around the world.

In this special milestone episode, Tyson Martin sits down with Scott Evans, a photographer, filmmaker, and art director based in the Bay Area of California whose work blends cinematic storytelling with portrait and fashion photography.

Originally from Santa Cruz, Scott studied photography in college and later graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara with a degree in English. After college he spent several years in Portland, Oregon, working in the restaurant industry while continuing to photograph and refine his creative voice.

Scott’s work is heavily influenced by cinema and classic photographic masters including Helmut Newton, Irving Penn, and Richard Avedon. His approach to photography embraces storytelling, atmosphere, and the idea that photography, like films allows the artist to create a world where imagination and reality blend together.

A dedicated Leica rangefinder shooter, Scott prefers the simplicity and intentional process that the Leica M system offers. For him, the camera should disappear in your hands so the photographer can remain present, connected, and fully engaged with the moment.

In this conversation we discuss:

• ​ The cinematic influence behind Scott’s photography• Growing up inspired by movies, westerns, and classic storytelling• Fashion and portrait photography as a narrative art form• Why the Leica rangefinder experience changes the way photographers shoot• The importance of slowing down and pre-visualizing an image• Building a creative career through persistence and curiosity

This episode is a celebration of 100 conversations about photography, creativity, and the human experience behind the lens.
