The World in Black and White
“Black and white are the colors of photography.” – Robert Frank
A Legacy in Monochrome
There is something eternal in black and white—a quiet gravity that holds the soul of the image.
Where It All Began
This is where my journey began, and where it returns, time and again.
Black and white images hold a sacred place in my heart.
They are the beginning of my story—of darkrooms and dreams,
of trays filled with developer, and prints blooming slowly to life.
If you wish to read the full story of those early days,
you’ll find it on my About the Artist page.
But know this: the essence remains. The love remains.
Though color has filled much of my commercial work
over the past 45 years, black and white still speaks to me—
with simplicity, honesty, and grace.
Carrying Tradition Into the Digital Age
Schooled in the darkroom from the age of thirteen,
I carry that sensibility into every black and white I now create.
Though the tools have changed, the reverence has not.
Today’s digital craftsmanship allows for new precision,
but the heart of the image—the patience, the shaping—
still flows from the same source.
The Craft Behind The Print
These are not fleeting digital files.
They are hand-shaped visions rendered permanent.
Baryta Paper and The Spirit of Film
The limited edition prints I offer are made on modern Baryta paper,
rich and archival—indistinguishable from traditional darkroom prints.
In fact, they often surpass them in longevity and subtlety.
They feel like memory, held in your hands.
Precision in Reproduction
In the darkroom, each print was its own unique act of effort.
Now, I craft the final version once—with care, with light and shadow—
and it lives on in perfect clarity.
Dodging and burning, preserved forever,
so that each collector receives a print identical to the next,
exactly as I envisioned.
Framing The Experience
The image is only part of the story. How it lives in your space matters too.
Mounting Options
Each photograph is printed with a clean white border,
on paper that honors the history of the medium.
You may choose to have your print mounted on foam core or Dibond,
but I discourage that, as the hologram for authenticity is affixed to the back of the print.
No other finishing is offered—this simplicity is intentional.
It respects the spirit of the original.
Editions and Authenticity
Images in this gallery are available in an edition of 15.
Each comes with a certificate of authenticity—numbered and signed—
a quiet testament to rarity, intention, and permanence.
Should you wish for a larger custom size, inquire,
and I’ll see what may be possible.
