Since many years I visit small villages and put up my mobile portrait studio. Shot on a 4x5 film that was last produced in 2002, only one negative per portrait, I develop and print the pictures on site in my bus (on the picture below it's still my old van-caravan setup). It is an amazing experience, to first hand the pictures to the persons depicted (befor showing it to the world).

I take portraits of people with whom I have good encounters; an interesting story, a shared cigarette, a bottle of vodka, or both; maybe they helped me, maybe I helped them. These are my holy people!
