Ghosts on Glass

Made with an 8x10 inch camera and long exposures onto hand-coated glass plates, each image reveals a quiet presence that unfolds over time. Subjects do not merely sit; they settle, shift, blur, and imprint themselves onto the plate. The results are not exact likenesses, but fleeting, imperfect, and strangely ethereal impressions. Each portrait is a one-of-a-kind artifact—slow, physical, and unpredictable. The people and places captured seem to exist between presence and memory. They are not ghosts in the literal sense, but echoes in the time they were captured. Held still by silver and glass, and made permanent by time, touch, and intention.
