A Start in Photography

‍

Black and white 35mm was where I began my photographic journey. While teaching silver halide printing as a student at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill, I began a lifelong journey of calibrating film for my work.

Current Systems

‍

Over the last year, I have spent more time in 6x6, 6x9, and 6x12 with both Linhof and Hasselblad, enjoying the rewards of larger format. I have also been photographing the South Carolina coastal areas for the last 8 years using the Leica S medium format system. Moving towards the Hasselblad CFV 100c bodies, I have just started incorporating the 12 STC using the Hasselblad limited edition.

Project Goals

‍

I work to bring you into the image, feeling the wind, smelling the salty air, and hearing the metronome of the ocean. At the same time, I want you to understand both the fragility and strength of nature, even as the signs show that humankind is ignoring the consequences of poor decisions. I am looking forward to the next part of my journey using ALPA and Hasselblad.
