Here are some stories about my art photography. Most of these stories are about film based photos, primarily because I love the look and that I get with film. I also love the experience of shooting, developing and holding the film up to the light to previsualise how the finished image will look. Additionally, I like the way that shooting film feels like a different process to the photos I take for work. Digital photography has taken over for a reason, the quality, detail and level of light you can work in and create great shots is magic, but digital photography is magic like smart phones and the internet. Things that you just accept as here and working but only have a vague five minute understanding of. Film is magic because even though I have a good understanding of the technical process of manufacturing film, I know how to develop and have worked in labs processing film for other photographers, I am still amazed every time I pull a freshly developed roll off the spiral and hang it up to dry. That is magic.
