About
About Me – Michael
I love to take photos. I love to develop film and I have an affinity for Black and White film. Perhaps because it has a lower barrier to entry for developing and enlarging, but also perhaps because there is difficulty and complexity in limitations. I wanted to create this site as a way to show the things around me in my world, but also as way to share my work with others. By buying a print, it gives me joy in making it and writing you a note. I take joy in the processing as much (or may be more at times) as taking the photos and being present.
I have become a film and camera nerd so if you have any questions, please let me know!
