Meet Chris
I’m Christopher Nazon, a first-generation Haitian-American analog photographer and videographer born and raised in Miami, Florida.
I’m passionate about experimenting with analog media—film, videotape, and the older tools that continue to shape the way I see the world. I specialize in archiving, developing film, and digitizing physical media.
Being born in the early 1990s has given me a unique perspective. I grew up at the edge of two worlds, experiencing both the final years of an analog era and the rapid shift into a digital one. That transition continues to influence how I create and what I choose to preserve.
Throughout history, the way we record and consume images has shaped culture as much as the moments themselves. By working with forgotten mediums, I’m able to explore the relationship between memory and time. Using in-camera techniques rather than digital manipulation, I create images that feel dreamlike, familiar, and just outside the boundaries of the present.
The concept behind my site is what I call Dust and Mirrors.
On the surface, it refers to the dust that settles on film and inside old cameras, and the mirrors within analog cameras that reflect light onto the film.
On a deeper level, it speaks to our own nature. We come from dust, while the mirrors represent the life within us that reflects light. Through my photographs, I want to reflect life in its most natural form—using photography as a tool to reveal who we are beneath the surface. That’s what excites me.
