Limited First Edition - 100 Copies
The first installment in an ongoing photographic series
Year One: The Development of a Photographer is the first installment in an ongoing series documenting the real work of getting better—frame by frame, mistake by mistake, breakthrough by breakthrough.
Printed as a 9×7 hardcover photobook with 116 pages, it captures a year of growth and experimentation across color and black & white, digital and analog, and the full spectrum of light—from soft sunrise glow to hard, uncompromising midday contrast. Expect street and documentary moments, travel scenes, and studies in framing, shadow, and timing.
This book isn’t about perfection. It’s about momentum. If you’re building your own eye, I hope it pushes you to keep shooting, keep trying, and keep living—because we’re all in an exploration of life.
Year One: Standard Edition is the core first-edition release of Year One — the first installment in an ongoing photographic series documenting exploration, growth, and the real work of becoming through photography.
