Whether it is reliability in skin tones for portraits, popping color in landscapes, or true to life and speed for low light real life experiences, Kodak Ultramax just delivers. It is not common to be able to get a reliable look even when a film is expired.

The Leica M2 – My Family Heirloom
The Leica M2 is a very special camera to me because when we started our journey of starting a family, I made the conscious decision to use solely the Leica M2 to document the whole way.

Flowers on Cinestill 400D
Over the years, I've loved to do still-life photography. Especially with flowers. I decided to test out a roll of Cinestill 400D with some flowers that were all different colors just to see what it could do.

2025 started out rough for me. I have been in the middle of a full blown flare-up with my Crohn's disease, so everything in my life has been turned upside down.
