I specialise in historical and traditional silver based photography using period photographic equipment. My work emphasises natural light portraiture, mainly in natural settings. Thematically my work encompasses pictorialism and ethereal timeless undertones, inspired by renaissance art.
The processes I currently use for picture taking are wet plate collodion, dry glass plate, paper negative process, Greenlaw’s calotype process and X-ray films as well as standard roll film and sheet films.
For printing I use standard silver gelatin paper, albumen printing, salt printing, Van Dyke brown and occasionally lith printing and cyanotype.
If this sounds interesting to you, please don't hesitate to get in touch! I'm open to commissions and collaboration, as well as consultancy and tutoring of traditional photographic mediums.
