Why Do Austin Photographers Mail Their Film to Brooklyn?
Austin's “Keep It Weird” ethos naturally extends to analog photography—the city has one of the strongest film photography communities in the South. The Harry Ransom Center houses the world's first photograph, UT Austin's Blanton is the largest university art museum in America, and South Congress is a vintage culture mecca. Live music capital feeds visual documentation culture. Holland Photo Imaging has served Austin since 1972.

Austin's Analog Photography Capital

Austin's “Keep It Weird” analog ethos, South Congress vintage culture, and live music capital visual documentation tradition make it one of the strongest film communities in the South.
