Alex Robison is a photographer based in Florence, AL, originally from Tupelo, MS. He studied photography at the University of North Alabama where he fell in love with film. Its hands-on process and functionality are what hooked him. The ability to double expose with ease and manipulate film during its development process is what he finds most appealing.

​

My work spans multiple forms of photography, contributing to how I approach the medium. I look for structure and abstract it in a way that tells a story.

I chase imperfections to explore new methods of abstraction and further understand the nuances of a camera. This exploration has taught me various techniques that give me a better understanding of how the medium can be used. I have learned to embrace unpredictability, as even the slightest mistake can lead to a surprising result.

This also serves as a state of mind: to let it be, to not be so controlling, and to keep an open mind. I believe film embodies this mindset perfectly, forcing focus on the moment that surrounds you. While this also caters to a controlling mindset, I use my control in a way to manipulate, learn, and grow along with it.
