Silver gelatin photograph


I shoot black & white film. Although my photographs are printed in a darkroom, using time-honored, traditional techniques, my aim is to reference my work around the romance of the camera itself and our unassuming relationship with it. My photographs reveal our tendency to want the camera to conjure a bygone era while falling prey to its tendency to provide us instead with the emotionally unsettling anxieties of Twenty-First Century life. Often, in our attempt to use film to seduce the eye we nevertheless rattle the soul.
