JOHN SMITH

Based in Los Angeles, I've been capturing moments on film since 2018. What started as a casual hobby quickly evolved into a deep passion for the analog process and the unique character it brings to every frame.

Film photography forces you to slow down, to be intentional with each shot. There's something magical about the anticipation—waiting to see how light, chemistry, and time transform into a tangible image.

I primarily shoot with a Canon AE-1, favoring Kodak Portra 400 for its warm tones and versatility. My work focuses on street photography, candid portraits, and the everyday beauty often overlooked.
