I’m Brad, a lifelong St. Louisan and family man. I make my living in digital, but on my own I prefer shooting film.  What continues to draw me back to analogue is the slower, more deliberate shooting experience. (Although I also appreciate the limited number of images to review!)

I started shooting when my dad gave me his Konica Autoreflex TC. Occasionally I still use it, but more often I’m shooting a Mamiya 645, Holga, or Canon 650 with older prime lenses. Recently I have been exploring different stocks, including B&W developed as slides, and cinestill reversal.  I don't develop my own film, but it's something I want to try soon.

I don’t have a particular style - sometimes I just enjoy snapshots of friends and family, other times I set out with more purpose to find things of interest.
