I've had a relationship with photography since my high school years when I discovered my school's unused darkroom. Making photographs helped me feel like I was somehow connected to everyone around me. As a shy My photographic equipment has vastly improved, I still have the same perspective today. I want my images to convey the sense of being there, un-distilled so that the viewer can readily relate them to their own experiences.
I make many digital photographs, but my preference remains with film, especially medium format black and white. I'm currently exploring the use of alternate photographic processes, and how a process can contribute to the sentiment and mood of an image.
