#541 Stories from beside the road
About this episode
The episode explores the stories behind roadside memorials through the lens of photographer Miranda Remington.
We pass roadside memorials every day. A cross, a handful of fading flowers, a photograph weathered by the sun. Most of us glance at them for a moment before driving on. Photographer Miranda Remington did something different. She stopped. What began as a simple act of curiosity became a deeply personal project, introducing her to families who continue to care for these places of remembrance and sharing the stories behind them. In this conversation, we explore photography's unique ability to preserve memory, the trust required to tell someone else's story, and why some acts of love don't end with goodbye. It's a remarkable reminder that every memorial marks not just a loss, but a life that continues to be remembered. Plus, in the mailbag, Adam Flack and Mark Mackay reveal their dream portrait photographers, though one choice may require a time machine. Dan Langer finds himself inadvertently ruffling military feathers, Gordon Oliver shares a rabbit hole that completely hijacked my evening, and Mark Christensen has found the new collective noun for a 'gaggle' of photographers.
