A Lifetime in Photography, A Love Affair with Alternative Printing Processes and Platinum Palladium
In this episode of the podcast I’m talking with photographer Roberto Aguilar of RJ Printlabs about his lifelong career in photography, his love affair with the Alternative Printing Processes, particularly Platinum Palladium. We also might have wandered off topic a little to discuss things such as if you should leave the brush marks visible on the final print.
