Photography – Personal

Stories that speak to the poetics of listening, conveyed through analogue photography.

I photograph with 35mm film, usually with my manual Canon FTB QL, but also with my automatic Canon Epoca 135 camera. On occasion, I take out my medium format Lubitel 166b, a simple Soviet model I got for cheap on eBay.

For developing film, C.I.M.E. Lab is my go-to, a Black-owned lab, store and creative studio, handling C41, ECN-2, black and white and E6 film development methods.
