Occasional notes from the field and the print studio.

Choosing paper for snow

October 2026

Snow is the hardest subject to print well. Bright whites block up on glossy stock and go grey on heavy matte papers. After a season of tests we settled on a smooth cotton rag with a light baryta coating for most of our winter images.

Three weeks in the Bernese Oberland

August 2026

This summer we spent three weeks hiking between Grindelwald, Mürren and Kandersteg with a medium-format kit. A handful of the images are now in the shop; the rest will follow after editing.

Outsourcing would be cheaper, but we would lose control of color. Every print leaves the studio only after it has been checked under a 5000K viewing light.
