I began photography in high school — developing film and photos in darkrooms — up until the digital revolution when I didn't have to mix chemicals anymore. My favorite photographers are Henri Cartier-Bresson and many street photographers. When I photograph, I only crop in camera — not afterwards — and try to only use available light.

These photographs are a collection I began shooting on 35mm slides in 1999. The prints were shown in large-format prints at various exhibits. The larger online collection can be viewed here.
