LOCAL WHIDBEY WITH MAGSY

WALKING ON WHIDBEY WITH PNW BIRDIE

In today’s episode, I was honored to walk with Todd Hipsher on the trail off of Coupeville’s Sunnyside Cemetery. My guest is none other than Todd Hipsher, aka the creative genius behind @PNWBirdie photography and video on Instagram and his beautiful calendars on Etsy.
You will notice that we are far from being indoors for this podcast recording.  I just couldn’t interview Todd sitting in a chair indoors. We had to walk.
I will chat about Todd’s daily walks, the stories behind his favorite photos, and how his love for Whidbey Island has inspired his art and his life. Plus, he’ll share some tips for finding the extraordinary in the everyday and why creativity and nature are the ultimate dynamic duo.
So, listen in, and get ready for a soulful, joy-filled conversation with Todd Hipsher or otherwise known as PNWBirdie. Trust me, you’re going to fall in love with his perspective, his passion, and, of course, his art. Let’s dive in!
