Why film? 🎞️
Because Fallen Flowers was always about capturing things that are fleeting.
Every landscape was real, changing each year with the weather, bloom timing, and farming conditions. spent Months researching flowering seasons, scouting locations, speaking with farmers, and following where each field would bloom. Many of these landscapes exist for only a few short weeks before disappearing again.
It felt only natural to photograph them on film.
Like flowers, film is fragile, unpredictable, and impossible to perfectly recreate. It embraces imperfection, softness, risk, and chance. As the project evolved, I stopped shooting digitally altogether and trusted film completely.
Every frame mattered. Every exposure mattered. Every successful image felt earned.
In a world of instant imagery, Fallen Flowers became an exercise in slowing down. There was no AI, no instant playback, no endless reshooting—only instinct, weather, collaboration, patience, and light.
In many ways, the project became an act of preservation. Not just of these extraordinary landscapes before they disappeared for another year, but of a way of making photographs that values presence over perfection.
