Meet Eric Leslie

in introduceyourself •  6 years ago 

While my head still swims trying to wrap itself around this amazing blockchain-based community, I wanted to say hello.

My name is Eric Leslie. I'm a pro wedding photographer based in northern California. I'll definitely be posting about photography and portraiture. I hope to share my thoughts about how I create my photos and give everyone as much value as possible. See the end, I have a podcast.

I love Trail Running

To stay sane and healthy, I run. Specifically, I love running on trails. I ran cross country and track in high school and was about as average as they come. I stopped running for 20 years! My kids got into high school and started running which inspired me to pick it up again. I discovered running trails and I've been hooked ever since. I've run one road Marathon and one trail Ultramarathon to date. I hope to race in Western States 100 in the next couple years.

I've started a running podcast called The Random Runner with my buddy Brian.

Wedding Photography

I shoot pretty much everything, but weddings are my passion. I really enjoy the challenge of shooting all day and staying on schedule mixed with getting really meaningful images that will be cherished for the rest of their lives.

I also have a month old photography podcast called The Eric Leslie Show where I offer tips and interview interesting people. I'd love to hear feedback for the show as I'm learning a ton publishing it.

Welcome! Looking forward to seeing some of your work, and checking out your running podcast. There's some cool platforms around that you could make use of. dsound.audio is very similar to souncloud (but powered by STEEM!), and may be a cool way to share your podcast.

Whoa, that sounds really cool. I'll definitely check it out.

Welcome to Steemit Eric. I also run, slowly. There's a great running community around #RunningProject, so check them out.

You could include links to your podcasts. Look up Markdown to see how to do this.

Have fun

Excellent, I've been looking for the best running community here. Thanks for sharing it with me.

PS. I'm not the fastest runner out there either. I love running long distances though.

Hey @ericleslie great to have you part of the community and looking forward to hearing more from you.
Regards @run.vince.run

Thanks for the warm welcome. I see you run Tri's. What length do you do?

I am doing my third IronMan in March 2019, but I love pushing the higher intensity races in the sprint distances as well.
I checked out your pod cast as well...Keep up the good work.
Regards @run.vince.run
