Creating your own aesthetic in photography: the camera you use, the focal length you use, whether you shoot with flash or natural light, and how you process your photos (whether RAW or JPEG):<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Make photos you like looking at<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lisbon, 2018. Shot with RICOH GR II in Positive JPEg mode, with further contrast added in Lightroom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’ve shot with a lot of different cameras, and I’m constantly experimenting with processing<\/a> styles, different camera formats, films<\/a>, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
