Film photographs have grain and depth. They feel alive - like you are glimpsing into a memory or a dream. The development process is all photochemical. And the closest we'll ever get to capturing how our eyes see the world everyday.
Analog photography is growing in popularity for the first time in a long time, but many still argue that it's too costly or impractical - especially for nature & wildlife.
I justify these challenges simply with how much fun film is to work with. Today, it's easy to spend a fortune on the latest digital cameras, complete with cutting-edge autofocus and autoexposure systems that can capture hundreds of sharp, well-exposed images in an instant.
But I can't shake the feeling that these cameras are slowly becoming the artists. They take away the thought and imagination of the process. Less and less are photographers patiently looking through the viewfinder, making judgement calls on exposure, and carefully deciding which exact moments are worth pressing the shutter button for.
Every photograph above was a deliberate choice - an effort to preserve not just an image, but an experience. I hope my photography allows others to feel these experiences and see our planet the same way I do! Timeless, alive, and in no rush.
