In my latest video, I take you behind the scenes to showcase the fieldwork involved in photographing Hodgson Mill using my 14×17 ultra-large format camera and X-ray film.
From packing gear in the darkroom to setting up in the field, I share the journey and challenges of working with such a large and intricate camera. You’ll see what it takes to compose, focus, and create exposures in the field, offering a rare glimpse into the dedication and process behind ultra-large format photography.
Just a quick note—I’ve created a ‘Gear for Sale‘ page as I begin downsizing the equipment I’ve collected over the years. I’m regularly adding new items, so be sure to check back often!”
Join me as I document this iconic 19th-century mill in the heart of the Missouri Ozarks and bring it to life through my lens.
