Profile Information
- About Me and My Photography Experience:
- After recognizing my love for photography traveling Europe, I decided to turn it into a career. Who doesn't want to practice their passion for their life's work? I'm self-taught, always looking to expand my horizons and knowledge. I aspire to become a fashion photographer while doing landscapes and architecture. I feel my greatest strength lies in architectural photography and I would like to refine my skills to incorporate fashion into landscsape/arch photography. I would like to create a spectacular hybrid of the genres but I feel in order to do that I must master them separately first.
I am always open to critique and advice, and am willing to give my own (what little there is) as well.
- My Photography Equipment:
- Nikon D90
Calumet Genesis 400
SB-600
50mm f1.8
11-16mm f2.8

Large Format
Posted on August 24, 2011 at 10:00pm 3 Comments 0 Likes
I went to a local used camera shop a couple weeks ago and purchased an early Linhof Technika view camera. It's marvelous to behold.
Since my purchase, I have been researching the techniques and processes of large format photography and I am very excited to start shooting 4x5s. I've bought film, developer, stop and fixer chemicals. I've just learned where I can find good information on making contact prints (I don't plan on doing any enlargements).
I had been…
