Your photography is amazing, but I must ask why use film? I mean you’re fucking amazing behind any camera so why do it the analog way… I get the sproket rocket and the polaroid but the rest it seems you would get the same results using you 5D MkII?

Thats a great question. At the end of the day I like the magic that the chemistry of light and film makes. Certainly I could fake that magic with filters and PS, but really at the end of the day I dont get joy out of that. I get joy out of film, finding new ways to explore how it can play with light and how I can use that to shoot models. Digital, although I understand its place and do use it very sparingly, it doesn’t bring the same joy to my life. Its just taste for me.

I do often debate using digital more. You could argue that the freedom of digital could lead to capturing something film couldnt. Some day I may shoot both for a period to see if I get different things with digital, but for now I love the film and all its magic!
