There’s something timeless and liberating about black-and-white film. After years of shooting colour and monochrome, I’ve decided to leave colour behind and fully embrace the beauty of black-and-white photography. From the stunning aesthetic of Ilford HP5+ 400 to the simplicity of editing and the creative freedom it offers, the black-and-white film has won me over. Here’s why I’m making the switch—and why I’m never looking back.

In photography, perfection is often seen as the ultimate goal—sharpness, flawless composition, and meticulous editing. But the most excellent photographs usually break the rules. Iconic photographers like Peter Lindbergh and Garry Winogrand embraced imperfection, capturing raw, authentic moments that resonate far beyond technical precision. This blog explores why letting go of perfection and injecting your personality into your work is the key to creating photographs that truly stand out. Embrace the beauty of imperfection, and watch your creativity soar.

Quitting social media as a photographer in 2025 might seem unconventional, but it’s been a game-changer for my creativity and focus. In this post, I share why I left the noise of social media behind and embraced the freedom of using a website, blog, and newsletter to showcase my work. It’s about creating on my terms, connecting meaningfully, and stepping away from the algorithm-driven race for attention.
