“Learning how to use different formats has made me a better photographer. When I started working in medium format, it made me a better 35mm photographer. When I started working in 4×5, it made me a better medium-format photographer.”
Medium format is about looking at the world through a wider window, with more profound detail. The wide-angle compositions I studied during my cinema education in Montreal truly find their breath on 120mm film. The square format (6x6) forces you beyond the conventional; do you center your subject, or do you command the void? It is, in essence, a process of visual meditation.
