Until August 9th, 2024 from 6-9pm I had never shown my work on it’s own. A whole 10 years of shooting film until my first solo gallery. Let’s just say I’ve been working on it for a while. Gallery #1 showcases some of my favorite work since 2015. And it is specifically made up of landscapes, architectural scenes, and people interacting with both environments.

All 26 images in Gallery #1 are shot on 35mm film.

There are 20 color and 6 black and white frames across Kodak, Cinestill, Fujifilm, and Ilford film stocks. All images were shot with a Canon AE-1, an Olympus XA, and a Nishika N800.

Gallery #1 was hosted by Essential Photo Supply in Salt Lake City, Utah. Every month, for the entire month, they host a different local photographer. I applied and was chosen for August of 2024 with the opening night on August 9th from 6-9pm. The following images were developed and or scanned at Essential.
