film photography

I’m drawn to photographing the moments that feel quiet, honest, and fleeting—whether I’m capturing a portrait, a landscape, wildlife, or the details of an interaction no one else seems to notice. Each subject tells its own story, but what I’m always searching for is the feeling within the frame: something intimate, timeless, and worth returning to.

Film is a large part of that process for me. There’s a warmth, texture, and sense of nostalgia that makes each image feel tangible—something meant to be held onto and revisited for years to come. I shoot primarily with my Canon AE-1, Canon F-1, and Minolta X-570, often using Portra 400 and Tri-X 400 to preserve both the beauty and imperfection of a moment.

More than anything, I love photography for the way it holds onto feeling. A photograph captures something that will never exist in quite the same way again—a glance, a place, a season, a person at a particular moment in their life. Below are some of my favorite frames: small pieces of the people, places, and memories that have shaped the way I see the world and who I am today.
