Pinhole Photography Artist Research : Martha Casanave

I have absolutely fallen in love with Martha Casanave’s beautiful pinhole photographs. The first few of her photos posted here are incredibly sharp and has so much depth. She seems to have positioned everything so well, and despite shooting with a pinhole camera, her composition seems perfect and it looks as though she knew exactly how it would turn out on the spot.

She shoots in 4×5 and applies a range of techniques with her pinhole such as the ghosting effect, soft focus, and even submerging her camera underwater!martha004
