She’s also interested in photography and you can check out her site HERE. I’m waiting on developing the medium format roll shot on the Hasselblad until I get back to...

I don’t know where to begin in describing this photo. It was one of those moments when a magical scene unfolded with the most amazing light. Snapping this shot I wasn’t too sure if I had nailed the focus or not. Shooting with medium format at f/2 is often a real challenge so when I...

I’m going to really miss photographing around areas like this. These were taken in Daikanyama, Tokyo, Japan. This area is quite well known for it’s great cafe’s and shopping. It’s a higher class area so it was fun to roam the back streets and find some really interesting houses and stores. I’ll be posting more...
