Artist Statement

As an artist, my creative interests fall into digital and film photography as well as videography. Back in 6th grade I got a dslr for Christmas, shooting digital for 4 years until taking a photography class at school. This class showed me the ins and outs of film photography—developing film, enlarging photos, mounting work, and more. What I enjoy about photography is capturing images that summarize my experiences. Whether it is skiing, hiking, or walking around Boston I want my bring my viewers into the images and feel the cold on a chairlift or hear the bustle of people walking in Boston.

I shot a roll of HP5 rated at an ASA of 400 at 800 at the recommendation of Nikita the other day at Gunstock while skiing, and honestly, I will probably continue to shoot HP5 rated at 400 at 800. Especially when it is overcast or the tones are flat. What I like about pushing the film a full stop is the contrast that it gave in return. The only sacrifice is that the size of the grain increases, but since I appreciate the look of high contrast, grainy, B&W images it is worth it. In the past when shooting HP5 my negatives have come out very gray, but with pushing the film I'm pretty much forcing contrast into the image which is cool.  The images below range from getting ready to go to the mountain or being on the mountain.
