The majority of these images were shot on my beloved Contax 645 and the rest on the Xpan hasselblad that Joel gifted to me for my 30th this year. All were shot on Fuji film and processed and scanned at Richard Photo Lab.

john kerry-williams - A sublime set of images worthy of exhibition. Sure, the kit and film help the 'look' - but no kit or film can ever capture the art of composition, balance and timing which pretty much every one of these photographs possess in bucketfuls as a result of your innate skill. Well done that man. - JKW, UK

nate henderson - I think a book on Havana should be in the works for you. Not sure if you've thought of that or have any plans, but after all the other havana shots you've featured...plus these, it would be killer. Just saying.

Sally Watts - These are really beautiful. The image of the little girl with the pigtails looking down is my favorite, and a perfect example of the magic of film.
Kirstie - These are simply stunning! I never thought about traveling to Cuba before seeing your photographs and now it is on my must travel to list. I showed my Mum your photographs and now she wants to go on a mother/daughter trip to Cuba together. She remembers being in Havana with her parents when she was a little girl and your photographs have inspired wanting to rediscover it 50 years later.
