seven shades of black no colour, just carbon.

the first edit is always wrong. always.

you photograph what you notice, not what you walk towards.

certainty is a bad editor.

80mm, f/4 — mostly.

a book shows what you think. a portfolio shows what you can do.

close the tabs. make something wrong. fix it later.

printing 20% larger than you think. scale never lies.

the space between two images — that is where the first one lands.

I read more than I photograph. method, not habit.

some cities are composed. most are not. you feel it.

a print becomes right when it stops being a photograph.

the best photographs happened when I stopped looking for them.

a wall has no sequence. someone walks in and looks left. or right. you cannot control that.

editing is not choosing the best images. it is choosing the best pauses.

the work is finished. you are the one still becoming ready.
