My work is  produced with small, medium and large 4x5” analogue cameras, all with focus, aperture and shutter speed set manually. While I enjoy the larger formats, the candid subject matter of “humanity on the go” is spontaneous and small format cameras have an immediacy to them that larger cameras cannot approach.

I prefer using lenses ranging between 28mm and 70mm to maintain an intimate connection with my subjects, but also use others depending on the subject matter and equipment. I use a Sekonic L-508 light meter. A large variety of transparency films are used, each of which is selected depending on light conditions, altitude, temperature and subject matter.

The vast majority of the photographs are made with the camera being hand-held. I use a Gitzo tripod for stability, though tripods are very seldom used -and usually only for architecture, active situations or intimate, low-light conditions – and of course, the larger  format cameras.  Equally rare is the usage of flash or other artificial lighting as I find ambient light utterly beautiful and sensual.

All 16x20”, 20x24” and 30x40” are printed using Fuji Crystal Archival processing, which ensures a life span of 100 years, and is considered to be the most archival/permanent available printing material to date.
Ilfochrome prints are available in 20x24” and 30x40”. Please inquire for pricing.

8x10” prints are Kodak dye sublimation prints while the 11x14” are Fujix Pictrographs. Each of these have an estimated life span of 40 years.

A NOTE ABOUT LIMITED EDITION 20x24” and 30x 40” PRICING.
Pricing for limited edition prints vary according to the number of the prints there are left in the edition. The less prints available to the public, the more expensive the print.
