q & a
why film?
- i'm a 100% film shooter because i love the aesthetics. for me, there is something romantic, something clandestine about film that has a hold on me. i also shoot film so i don't have to be a slave to the computer and enjoy life outside of the post-production world.
so, what kind of camera do you use?
- is use a variety of contax, bronica, and nikon professional gear. see below 'equipment' for more details. i primarily use a contax 645 for everything. it delivers the kind of image i want: 6x4.5 awesomeness.
i'm new to photography, any basic tips?
- i'm always eager to promote this highly acclaimed photography program: take-a-camera-everywhere-you-go. make your camera your new best friend. take it everywhere, doing this allows you to know the ins and outs of your camera.
how did you get into photography?
- i picked up a camera my senior year in college and dropped all plans for graduate school. so much for my history degree!! but i wouldn't want to be doing anything else.
can i join you on a shoot?
- one of the options for a 'picture-maker session' is offering photographers the opportunity to join me on a real shoot.
have more questions? feel free to contact me.
