You deserve a portrait that you like, made in a way that's enjoyable, even if you don't like being in front of the camera.
I make portraits on location across Tokyo. Make an advance booking now and get ¥10,000 off my regular rate. Let's make something great together.

Kaldi has the cheese tortellini again.
I repeat: KALDI HAS THE CHEESE TORTELLINI AGAIN.
Let the buying frenzy begin
So I'm on Twitter (not calling it x), Bluesky, Threads, Instagram, Facebook, Mastodon, and a few others.
People on one platform like to gloat about how bad the others are, but they're all uniquely shit and I love the people I've met, but holy hell every platform is just awful

Was a bit bummed the Fujica Half (1963) didn't have a filter thread, but it does! I wasn't looking closely enough. Now I just need to keep an eye out for 22.5mm filters (yellow/orange/red) as that's not a size I've had need for before.

It's taken entirely too long, but I am delighted to announce my first short story collection has just published!
"Errors In The Manifest: Stories of Analogue Futures, Cosmic Horror and Other Strangeness" is now available on Kindle:
📦 amazon.com.au/dp/B0HQLRHD1P/
It's nine stories spanning cassettepunk sci-fi, Cthulhu Mythos, cosmic horror, steampunk, Weird Fiction and other assorted strangeness.
Some errors are amusing. Others are fatal. And some have consequences far beyond anything anyone could have imagined...
Gonna have to dive back into developing and scanning soon, but for today, shooting some half frame is an absolute delight.

Amazingly, I currently have five cameras with film in them. The Fujica Half is being tested, the Mamiy 645 and C22 are testing some things on Foma Ortho 400, the F2 is the current diary camera, and the EOS 3 is next in the diary camera rotation.

I shell out ¥25,000 for a 2TB HDD on the eve of 2027 and it comes with a USB-A cable?
The fuck is that?
Next time around, I assume a rep from the hard drive company will just come out and kick me square in the balls.

Holy fucking shit, failed backup hard drive and these fucking things have doubled in price in the last year, for fuck's sake please hire me. I'm good at what I do and if this shit keeps piling up I'm just going to fucking lose it.

Recently, I've been making a concerted effort to get back into studying photography. Not practicing, but studying. Time spent looking at work, reading essays, listening to interviews, and taking copious notes along the way.
This is often neglected but critical.
