Ben (he/him) grew up on the Oregon coast, a couple miles outside a town of a few thousand people, then later went to college in Orange Country, California, which was a bit of a shock to say the least. He has always loved the weather of Western Oregon (especially the rain) and the plant life it supports. He enjoys photographing just about anything that isn't a person, hoping to make you feel as though you're sitting there with him looking across the Columbia Gorge, or watching the purposeful progress of a bee going about its flowery business. By trade he is a software engineer, and like many software engineers is deeply distrustful of computers and modern technology.

For Matt (he/him), what started as a hobby to escape boredom transferred to a passion in reviving the beauty of film photography in the digital age.

Cameras used include the Mamiya RB67 in medium format and Canon F-1 in 35mm.
