About

I am Walt Maddox, a landscape photographer based in Oaxaca. Film forces a pause between seeing and pressing the shutter. The first five weeks were mostly about unlearning. A friend once described portraits as quiet work, and the phrase stuck.

This site started in 2024. Scanning is tedious, but it is where the series takes shape. For a long time I treated portraits as an afterthought. The small things matter less than the routine of paying attention.
