Photography
Below is a small sample of my photography, all shot on film and developed either in my kitchen or at The Halide Project community darkroom, where I volunteer as a lab monitor. I enjoy experimenting with a variety of photographic processes, including gum bichromate, resinotype, pinhole, and cyanotype, among others.

Trash Camera Chronicles
An image from an ongoing project where I make pinhole cameras out of trash collected along the streets in Philadelphia and use them to take photos of other trash. I then clean up the trash and take an ‘after’ photo. This photo was a ‘before’ image shot on a discarded Pringles can.
