Quiet Frames Studio is Michael J McConnell — a film photographer working in 35mm, medium format, and large format. Each image is shot on location, developed in small batches, and selected by hand against a lightbox.

The work spans portraiture, street photography, landscape, and architecture — connected by an interest in available light, the weight of grain, and what slowing down produces.

Cameras: Canon AE-1 · Pentax 6×7 · Fuji GW690II · Horseman 45FA. Film: Ilford, Kodak, Fuji, Lomography.
