Capturing Snow With On Camera Flash
2023-07-23 03:06:39 UTCI’ll start by saying I’ve never been big on using flash for my photography. I’ve always liked to keep things simple and make use of natural light. For some reason (and I don’t know why), I always perceived photography with artificial light as a kind of cheesy, over-dramatic look or… -
Shooting Cinestill 800T For the First Time
2023-04-02 16:23:10 UTCCinestill 800T has been around for quite some time now but I’ve never shot it before. On a recent trip to New York City, I stopped by B&H Photo and picked up a couple rolls of it. One 35mm roll and one 120 roll. I saved these rolls for a… -

2023-02-22 01:01:05 UTCLooking back at 2022, I realized I didn’t shoot photos all that much. At first, I was just frustrated that I felt like I haven’t taken any “portfolio worthy” photographs in the last couple years. It was only when I looked through my photo archive of the recent past years… -

2021 Recap
2021-12-30 21:09:44 UTCIt’s that time of year again. Where I like to look back and say, “Well, it’s been a minute since I last shared a blog post. I wish I had done more like I said I would.” 2021 was an odd year for me. Even more so than 2020 for… -
Pentax 67 First Roll
2021-06-17 01:38:00 UTCI picked up a Pentax 67 in the spring along with the 105mm F/2.4 lens. My initial thoughts on medium format has changed drastically after shooting my first roll.
