Overview

An editorial collection of images shot on 16mm motion picture film across Bellingham, Washington, and the Mt. Baker backcountry. Individual film negatives were sliced and scanned at high resolution; a process that transforms the physicality of the medium into the image itself, each frame carrying the grain, density, and tonal character of the original celluloid. The creative direction was built around a single tension: the balance between dark and light in Washington's famously moss-heavy, overcast landscape. People and places were photographed with equal weight, as a multiframe portrait of a specific kind of Pacific Northwest atmosphere. The kind that shaped a generation of snowboarders, filmmakers, and anyone who spent formative years in that particular grey-green light.
