Most of my photographic endeavours have revolved around an arrogant avoidance of presumed correct manors, only to then circle back around again, tail between legs, ‘oh yeah.. probably should know at least the basics of this mechanic’. Luckily it is during these escapades you normally realise what it is you’re actually trying to achieve. Be that a slower more engaged connection between your subject and your use of technology, or a just a really nice picture.
Predominantly I would say I am a film photographer, the tactile approach to creating an image bearing the most inspiration for me. Over the years I have fashioned some ridiculous methods, a lot of the time involving pinhole cameras. This circling back to what I said about not wanting to learn fundamental photography techniques.. so I went with one of the most basic set ups possible. But it worked for me, and here we are.
