Dusty Negatives: RVA Through The Eyes Of Douglas Philip Jocham

by | Nov 13, 2013 | PHOTOGRAPHY

Douglas Philip Jocham is a young photographer whose images of the Richmond area caught our eye back when he was still running the now-mostly-defunct North Lombardy tumblr. These days, he’s switched from capturing his environment with digital devices to shooting entirely on film, giving his work a recognizable aesthetic that is rare in this iPhone age.

Photos | The Strokes at Allianz Amphitheatre

The Strokes are the most important rock band of the 21st century. In 2001, they changed the dial from grunge to garage, and singlehandedly sent every record label on a scavenger hunt for their sauce. If you weren’t around back then you might think I’m exaggerating....
