Working for years as a portrait and fine art photographer, a love of light and the history of photography has taken my work back in time, slowed it down. With a passion for simplifying the tools and processes I often wonder how available can I make photography to myself, or to others. Using minimal interference, from capturing to creating, my artistic explorations seem to be a continued search for processes that encourage a hands-on connection inspiring imagery that feels crafted rather than snapped.
