Welcome back to The Iron Sights Podcast! In this episode, I sat down with Anshil Popli to discuss the arts, photography and how to establish a name for yourself in The Bay Area. Popli was born in Florida but grew up in the East Bay. His talent for photography is unmatched and this episode deconstructs his efforts to establish a reputation in the  Bay Area as one of the most artistic & individualized creators in the industry. We met through the firearms industry but Anshil's work extends far beyond how we met. I hope you enjoy this weeks dive into: art, photography, The Bay Area & creating something from nothing with our special guest Anshil Popli.Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:30 Welcoming Anshil01:43 Living In The Bay Area08:14 Growing Up In San Ramon11:20 Being A Young Adult29:30 Getting Into Photography30:06 Lessons From The Music Industry32:58 Curating A Portfolio34:15 Navigating The Film Industry40:58 Breaking Into The Photography Industry45:31 The Parallel Between Cinema & Fitness48:45 The Wild Wild West58:03 Oversaturation In Industries58:51 Meeting Through Firearms1:09:52 Inclusivity with Different Demographics1:13:43 Normalizing Firearms1:17:13 New Photography Book Launch1:18:39 How To Get In ContactMore Iron Sights Interviews:Triple Feed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMTc7AE0KaQ&t=384sKayley Gunner: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfGqHxCv7Vc&t=522sMike Salemi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq-Nj6M0EBI&t=335sAdam Schafer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiyrdWdO1y8&t=8sSal Di Stefano: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBdKdSjQ0BM&t=4425sJason Khalipa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTiq-sID-EMByron Rodgers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrtEyuVNNpwDonnie Oliver: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKY1_TLKHlIChris Cheng: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wr0zSGSTzKM&t=2sTraver Boehm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_NLdIg3zBc&t=1394sTRAIN WITH US:RDF Online Training: https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-coachingCONNECT WITH US:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/ironsightspodcast/Twitter - https://twitter.com/ironsightspodLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/ironsightspodcast
