Photography :: Booth #S12

Process

My approach to photography is a blend of vintage craftsmanship and modern precision, reflecting my passion for the art form’s timeless essence. With my vintage 1969 Hasselblad and Pentax K-1000, I'm able to capture both medium-format and 35mm film images steeped in depth, texture, and nostalgia.

Inspiration

I'm constantly inspired by the groundbreaking work of female photographers like Dorothea Lange and Vivian Maier, as well as the unique film look of Wes Anderson. My film camera is always with me, that way I never miss the opportunity to photograph something or someone unique or eye-catching!

Fun Facts

One fun fact about my work is that I exclusively use vintage cameras for my prints, including a classic 1969 Hasselblad - the same model that was used at the moon landing - and a Pentax K-1000, both of which are entirely manual. Every shot I take is a meticulous and deliberate process.
