I work primarily in large-format black-and-white photography with an experimental approach. My collection of around 200 working cameras from 1880 to 1960 forms both my practical toolkit and my conceptual foundation. I approach portraiture almost like a form of cosplay, creating images that the original owner of each camera might have made when it was new. This lets me reflect on photographic history and the evolution of photographic technology at the same time. This ongoing, informal series is called Collection.

I am not chasing technical perfection. Dust, fingerprints, and other marks on my negatives and prints become part of the texture and character of each image. I often work with historic chemicals and materials.

The creative process is collaborative, and I frequently involve my subjects in the darkroom work itself. My strongest influence remains the pictorialist portrait tradition of 1900 to 1920.

I'm trying to bring the historical fine arts aspect into my applied working projects as well. I shot multiple projects for magazines, exhibitions and other artists portfolios, all analog, of course. Many of these photos has been used in magazines and books.
