2017/2018!

Wow! It's that time again! A new school year is about to begin! I'm absolutely thrilled to be working with you all this year! We'll be meeting new artists and photographers. Experimenting. Taking risks. Exploring new mediums. Creating meaningful photography. Working and learning together. Having fun. Making friends. Developing our sense of style. I can't wait!

Here is some fun film photography that I took this summer. I used infrared black and white 35 mm film, infrared black and white 120 Holga film, black and white disposable cameras... It was super enjoyable to get out there with my camera.
