Andrew D. Brosig Photography

The Analog Project started in September 2013 when I was looking for a way to revitalize my vision. I'd been capturing digital images almost exclusively for several years and, while I think I was producing good work, it wasn't meeting a need deep inside me to return to my creative roots. Digital imaging had become, in some ways, more technology than technique.

 

I started off with a box of out-dated 35mm film and a 1970s-vintage Nikkormat EL camera which had belonged to my father, who got me started on this path in photography. It soon morphed into shooting with a variety of rangefinder cameras — including several manufactured in the Former Soviet Union — medium format cameras and a host of others, all from my extensive camera collection.

 

The Analog Project resulted in a book (Available on Amazon.com) and monthly features in The Daily Sentinel of Nacogdoches, Texas, where I was Photo Editor. More importantly, The Analog Project has resulted in a new outlook on photography, taking me back to the days of my youth when photography meant taking time and care, without the instant gratification which typifies so much of our world today.
