About
Hello, it's Vincent.
I have been experimenting for a while with what to do with photographs. I like photos in a series. Chained together they have a better chance of meaning something to another human. That's my goal.
I have made a few photobooks. They take time and cost a lot of money, but they are worth it. For smaller stories—perhaps eight or twelve images—I haven’t yet found a satisfying way to share them with friends and family. The family blog is too personal, Instagram is too small. Field Notes is my continuing attempt at sharing stories in a custom built website.

- Astro is a static site generator.
- Each story and its layout are written in an MDX file, with rules that convert the contents into a set of page layouts.
- The underlying code is written in TypeScript, in collaboration with Codex.
- Astro Assets and Sharp convert the high-resolution JPEG masters into responsive images for different screens.
- The typefaces are Kepler and Acumin, licensed through Adobe Fonts.
