Harold “Doc” Edgerton’s developed strobe and other innovative technologies to stop motion—from the splash of a drop of milk to the blast of an atomic bomb. His breakthroughs enabled photographers to capture the unimaginably brief, giving viewers “first sight” of extraordinary moments.

I hope to rekindle that sense of surprise and disbelief. To use technology to create images that have never been seen.

First Sight avoids the expected vocabulary of high-speed water drop photography. The images are devoid of any familiar clues of origin, leaving you entirely on your own to interpret what you view. Scale­, material, and time frame are not obvious. What you see is a blend of reality and your imagination.
