Amid Smoldering California Rocks With Quicksnap 400
Red Rock Canyon, CA Summer 2020
December 12, 2021
Summer of 2020 I took two 35mm Disposable Fujifilm Quicksnap 400’s out on a quick summer camping trip in the southern Californian desert. Easily around 100 degrees out there at this time of year all 24hrs in the day just about. Red Rock Canyon in Southern California is a great quick getaway for anyone who wants to see nothin’ but dirt, rocks, and shrubs.

Snyder Quarry
Granite Aggregate Operations
September 7, 2021
The Snyder Quarry is located in South Western Oklahoma in the town of Granite, Oklahoma. With the nifty Holga 120n and a roll of Ilford’s Black and White HP5 Plus 120mm, a field trip to the granite quarry was going to make for some great film shots. These photographs were taken during the Fall of 2019.

Desert Islands
A Salty Salt Lake Trip — July 2021
August 3, 2021
While working on my rotating 2-week shift in Jal, New Mexico, I sat behind a computer screen at midnight on a frac pad, already pondering what to do in 2-weeks when I get off work. I looked at the cheapest flights out of Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, and low and behold Salt Lake City, Utah caught my eye.

Even when visiting a colorful place such as Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL, one can frame photographs in a way to capture interesting and contrasting black-and-white pictures. These shots were taken in December of 2019 on an Ilford HP5 disposable.

Once Upon a New Year
A Pre-Pandemic Swiss Journey Documented on Analog Film
July 26, 2021
Late December of 2019 through early January of 2020. A last-minute trip before we really knew what “pandemic” meant. A group of 5 lifelong friends from California decided to meet up with a 6th, who was ending his time studying abroad in Zurich for the semester.
