Steve Buchanan
Maryland
Steve Buchanan discovered his passion for photography at the age of 14, while working at 7-Eleven, stocking shelves. It was a fateful moment when he noticed the label on the back of a roll of Kodak film, which read, "Take this film to your Kodak processor or develop it yourself using Kodak chemistry."
The realisation that he could develop his own photos ignited a lifelong obsession. Over the years, he has turned his lens toward subjects, ranging from mummies to machine guns. From cherished locations to unforgettable mishaps (like that time in the blast freezer), Steve has continuously sought innovative ways to capture the world's beauty.
