Film Photography
Spring 2023 - Summer 2024

Film photography is a passion of mine. I mostly use a 1950’s era manual Zeiss Contessa, but have used other film cameras in the past. This work mostly tries to bring out colors and moods moreso than my other work in photography and videography. Most of my film photography is done in travel, which is why these sections are broken up into times and locations.
