I’m not entirely sure what makes a photograph, beautiful. But the way my mind chooses to remember incidents, people and things are by way of dramatic snapshots, a frozen moment that pulsates through my brain, leaving what I imagine, what ultimately becomes an impression. Maybe that’s what good photographs are meant to convey, not to strive to be aesthetic, but simply to recreate the feeling of a memorable impression.

why noir? Noir is a place for me to keep track of the things I photograph. The title refers to the perversion of photography, in that you require darkness in order to capture light. Noir is my black box. my gear Eyes · Camera · Lens · Film · Billingham · Hunger · Passion · Courage hire me You can view my portfolio here. inspiration akentl · the moment captured · moodaholic · simplify to amplify · strobist · electrolite · mango power girl · boxed light · radiant lite · dan winters · david loftus · foundation hcb · stefan lubo · the photo book · 5b4 · in a lonely place · Chasing Light · Photography Schools · Gothenburg 365 · Chromogenic · Dominic Davies · Rion.nu · Burn Magazine · Charlie Colmer
