Self-Portrait. I did not take a photo and draw on it. The photo has only ever existed melded with the sketch. 4x5 direct positive paper print merged in-camera with glass plate ink sketch. I loved fine arts in my teens but abandoned it drawing from parental pressure to forgo art school in favour of a real career. This portrait fuses the identity of Photographer and newly re-emerging sense of Self-as-Artist.

Nonna and The Pin in her Shirt. I find that usually it's the small things that can symbolise our life to others; a crooked smile, a scar, a funny gesture or habit. I noticed the small pin in my Nonna's shirt while taking her portrait and found her whole life represented within that one unconscious habit. Something she picked up from being a dressmaker most of her life. It seems small but to me, especially significant

Muse. 4x5 wet plate collodion image on aluminium. All elements captured in-camera during one 60-second exposure. Inspired by late 19th Century / early 20th Century Pictorialism. Reacting to widespread use of photography for recording 'truthful' images of people, places and events, Pictorialists sought to instead evoke emotional sensations and states of mind, with psychological and spiritual meaning.

Norwegian Wood. After reading Murakami, I decided to visit Japan. I usually take my digital camera gear with me when I travel. However, due to a recent injury, it started becoming too much of a hassle. A few days before the trip, I picked up my very first film camera and this image, which reminds me of Murakami's novel, from the very first roll which was very satisfying. I shoot on film now!

Lilli Waters
Dawning. Dawning questions our relationship with nature and ourselves and ideas about female identity through an unsettling, otherworldly scene. The female figure inhabits a primordial, foreboding landscape in a pose of fluid movement that require a re-thinking of notions of vulnerability and power. This woman contradicts stereotypes of feminine frailty; she appears to be birthed into nature.

Remnant #2. This deconstructed and chemically altered Polaroid self-portrait deliberately subverts the conventions of portraiture, placing an emphasis on the materiality of the photographic surface. Due to instant films association with tangibility and materiality, it embodies the concepts of indexicality and referentiality more profoundly than any other form of photography.

Where do we go after this?. I was walking around an unfamiliar neighborhood, I saw this man trimming his plants. I photographed him on my point and shoot film, and scan it with my mirorless camera, the way the point and shoot and mirrorless camera renders my image really exaggerated the imperfections of my image. But that imperfections also adds more mystery and ambiguity that makes this picture seems a lot more.

In essence it is an era remembered from my minds eye. Through the imagery I am sifting through glimpses of my childhood memories by examining the daily rituals, domestic setting and the once familiar objects.

This was taken very early in the morning during an air balloon flight over Camden. I was experimenting with high grain 800 iso film. I wanted the image to have an impressionist, expressive feel to it. I only work with natural light and enjoy creating images that are experimental and gritty.

The Married Furniture Maker. I first took a similar portrait of Kyme, the 'Furniture Maker' three years ago. It was the first roll of medium format I had shot and started me on a new path. Photographing his wedding, I had one shot left on the roll of film in my Mamiya. We used it to capture another close up portrait to celebrate his new journey.

Finding Jason in reticulation. When i found him he as waiting tables -turns out he was also a drama student. We did two shoots together, this is from the second. He asked me what I wanted him to do. I didn't know, I just wanted to discover him so I acted - he reacted. Later, I ws experimenting w the film dev process. I had an idea, it would be risky, I could lose the film completely. But I did it anyway and found reticulation.

Lauren, Australian artist and mother, on femininity. Lauren says on femininity: "I am a hyper feminine feminist.. its important for {femininity} to exist, and everyone needs to be true to themselves... to be frilly in a world that favours men takes a person who is actually quite tough. Its super important to acknowledge social conditioning of gender norms. I rebelled against it for years."

An English Summer. Most people who haven't been able to properly explore England assume it must all be very dull and boring once you venture beyond old London Town, but there's a certain charm about the countryside that is so timeless and refreshing in this increasingly modern world, making it all the more special.
