I have many memories of working with Kodak’s graphic Arts film—Kodalith—back when I was a student at the Maryland Institute College of Art.

Photographing  models outdoors in a public place almost always attracts the attention of local gendarme. As it turned out that was not a problem. The original Olympus E-M10 is a small, understated-looking camera and I thought using it would make us look like a couple of tourists, which essentially we were.

I believe a fear of photography is real. Copophobia, scoptophobia, or ophthalmophobia are anxiety disorders that are characterized by a fear of being seen or stared at by others, as in someone looking at them on a photograph.
