Favorite Projects

My Camera Collection and Their Images

A collection of images from my vintage camera collection. Each camera gets a chance to show off the images it is capable of capturing along with a brief description of their histories.

As the current steward of these cameras, I created this page as a living archive of each camera. Check back every now and then, there are more cameras in my collection but many are broken. As I repair them, they will be shown here!

The Welcoming and Familiar

An ongoing project, The Warm and The Familiar, is an effort to capture images that inspire a sense of familiarity. Photos that radiate warmth and sometimes remind the viewer of a story book.

My Favorites

Images that I don’t use for “work” or consider part of my professional photos. I generally call myself a “hobbyist” photographer and camera collector. Mostly because I don’t know if its fair since, as of the moment writing this album cover, I don’t know my artistic voice. I think having a point, reason or message is essential for me to be willing to call myself an artist. In the meantime, I will do my best to respect the art!

Travel Projects

Jerome, Arizona

An afternoon stop in Jerome, Arizona. Once a small mining town, it is now a living museum. The original structures have been left in an educationally striking manner. Many building’s facades and interiors are restored, some are allowed to remain in their collapsed state, and most have been turned into shops, restaurants, and services. On the day trip with my brother, I brought a single lens, the legendary Fujinon XF35mm f1.4. Every shot in this album was captured with this single lens.

NorCal to San Diego and the Stops Between

In 2023, my family starting in three different locations arranged a meeting to Disneyland as that year’s family vacation. My mother flew, my brother brother drove from Arizona, and I got to take the best kind of route, the Meandering kind. One leg is about eight hours, I took twelve hours and stopped wherever my heart desired. Such was the case for the entire trip, taking the scenic route. This trip contains many firsts for me: first trip with the newly inherited camera collection, first use of my newly purchased Fujifilm XT-5, it was this trip that I without any worries shot as many photos as possible with film and digital to learn as much as possible. Also got a damn good sandwich at Ventura Sandwich Co.
