Noncomissioned Work

I am fueled by a deep-seated passion for analogue photography, where the process of capturing an image to bringing it to life in the darkroom becomes a poetic and immersive experience. The tactile nature of handling film, the anticipation of uncovering the latent image in the development bath all contribute to a profound connection with the art form. I relish every step of the process, finding satisfaction not only in the final print but also in the intimate, hands-on craftsmanship that accompanies each image's evolution—a journey that transforms a mere photograph into a timeless, tangible piece of art.
