Services

I can provide plenty of different photography-related services. Programming too. Rates are individual, depending on the job.

I'm based in Hong Kong, but open to relocate (even temporarily) for a gig.

You can contact me by email: 3garfield@gmail.com.

Film development

Black and white. In HC-110. It's done by hand, with love. 135, 120, 4x5.

Mostly offering it as a convenient option if you're nearby, far from a lab.

I can also teach you how to do it: see Hands-on workshops.

Film scanning and restoration

With extensive experience of scanning film of various quality over the years, I can provide scans of higher quality than most labs would get you.

Certainly a specialist in this regard, as you can check the blog post about scanning. It's a process that's constantly improved, but always will yield great results.

I can also digitize your old negatives or slides; remove scratches or dirt, and bring faded color back, on per-image basis.

Hands-on workshops

Do you want to learn how to develop your film, how to use a large format camera, or make cyanotypes? Make your own pinhole?

If you're interested in learning more about any of the things you've seen on my blog, feel free to shoot me an email.

I maintain this page to share knowledge, and a workshop is just another way of doing that, with more effort put into individual teaching and answering questions.

Event photography

Concerts, parties, protests (not in HK); I can promise stealthy, candid photography that would capture the moment best.

Product photography

Selling something, want to make it look best?

Working on an advertising campaign for your shop?

You'll find my images to be sharp and great looking for your customers. Or intriguing enough, to get more views for your car.

Small items that I can do with my lightbox (e.g. see the reviews) I can do for a little fee, and that will help you sell your items.

Outdoor portraits

I don't have a studio space, but I can take advantage of the incredible Hong Kong cityscapes.

Whether it's some pics for work, a profile pic for a dating app (like LinkedIn), or a pre-wedding shoot, you'll be happy with the results.

Tour walks around HK for newcomers with few photo scenes here and there are also possible. I know the city better than some locals.

Videomaking

A part of visual media that I am still learning about (so my rates are low :)).

Whether it's tracking shots of Ju-jitsu, or static shots for a moving music video, you can trust me behind the camera.

Audio with stereo microphones? No problem either.

I can also take care of basic editing.

Aerial footage

Whether it's massive landscapes, or tracking shots; I'm quite well-versed with DJI Mini 3 Pro, including manual control.

Skills from a smaller drone easily translate onto bigger, more powerful drones.

I also have some experience with FPV whoops; that would require more polish (heh), but I'm not a total stranger.
