One year done @hartfordphotomfa and one year to go. Feeling grateful for my cohort, the program, and a journey with no destination.

A little over 4 months ago I started the @hartfordphotomfa program. In that time I have learned much from faculty, visiting artists, and from my very talented cohort of fellow students. I’ve also begun shooting with a large format camera and developing at home - a journey I am only just beginning to understand. What a humbling thing, to try and capture what’s in your heart on a sheet of film. by @john76
