Hello!

I'm Sean. I've recently re-fallen in love with Photography. I got my BFA in Photography from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago back in '96. Real life and work got in the way so my own photo work took a back seat for a couple of decades but the photobug has bit me again and I've been dipping my toes back into the water.

I'm an analog guy with love for plastic cameras and "alternative process" printing but I do really enjoy using my iPhone for pics as well. I've been working on printing my iPhone images as cyanotype and Van Dyke brown prints. It's nice to make them more tangible and less ephemeral.

Welcome and thanks for the pictures.
I’m originally from the westside but left a long time ago. Use to do Ziatypes. Lots of fun. May have to start again and use my iPhone pic’s.
Btw, why are they brown instead of blue?

I toned them with tannic acid to change the color.
