…in a galaxy far, far away, I used to shoot in film. Fancy fuji color film and sometimes even black and white film. But that shit was expensive as hell to develop and I was a broke 19 year old living in the Flatlands, Brooklyn. Looking back on these film photos its interesting to see all of my experimentation. At that time I read sooo many art magazines, looked at Ansel Adams photo books and poured through National Geographic trying to figure out how to take amazing photos like the ones I admired. Most of these photos are from the time period in my life right after high school when I was still living in Tennessee and then shortly thereafter when I moved to New York. There’s something very special about film photos. The same subject shot on digital may not have the some effect on you as it would shot in film. Maybe one day I’ll dust off that old film camera and see what sort of images I can produce eight years and thousands of photographs later….
