Steve Buchanan
Maryland
Steve's passion for photography ignited at the age of 14 while he was working at 7-Eleven. One day, he noticed a label on a roll of Kodak film that read, “Take this film to your Kodak processor or develop it yourself using Kodak chemistry.” This revelation sparked his curiosity, leading him to explore the world of photography.
Over the years, Steve has captured a diverse array of subjects, from ancient mummies to modern machinery. He has traveled to numerous beloved locations and a few he'd rather forget—like the infamous blast freezer—always seeking innovative ways to showcase the beauty around him.
