Polaroids

Polaroids have offered me a more organic and authentic viewpoint then my digital work. I found myself trying os hard to control the medium when I was working digitally and it became so formulaic and unenjoyable. Polaroids give me these tiny glimpses into the world around me and allows me to embrace the nuances of the photographic medium. Through these small square pieces of reality I have discovered an immense universe of reality.
