Hand-developed silver gelatin prints, stereoviews for antique viewers, or alternative-process studies. No digital ink or mass reproduction—just deliberate, small-batch analog work delivered the old-fashioned way.

Each month's batch closes on the 20th. Signups before the cutoff get the upcoming release; signups after roll into the next month.

Prints are exposed, developed, washed, and packed by hand in San Francisco during the final week of the month.

Envelopes ship via USPS on the 1st of every month.

While Traveling in Portugal for one year, I photographed Portugal's most charming hidden corners and moments in Portuguese everyday life. My paintings are inspired by my photographs and my unique experiences during my travels. It makes me happy to share my adventures and artwork with you. 

During 2021 My family and I left our home country to Portugal, bought ourselves a caravan and traveled for almost one full year. The gorgeous sites, people, cultures and sweet little corners of the magnificent country encouraged me to go back to my creative day and share my work. I share my stories and adventures in each letter and add fun items for you to collect and enjoy. Each month is a mystery uncovered only when you open your envelope.
