Analog Observations Film Photography

I carry a mechanical camera for the exact same reason I practice UX research: it demands deep situational awareness. With a fixed roll of 12 or 36 frames, there is no room for passive shooting. Every exposure requires patient observation, an understanding of environmental constraints, and a sharp eye for how people naturally navigate and interact with the spaces around them.
