About Chimère_Photoing
Chimère Photoing is a one-person film photography studio rooted in craft, nostalgia, and quiet beauty. Created and led by Sam Beard, this practice is as intimate as the images themselves-slow, honest, and grounded in analog tradition.
The name Chimère
About Chimère_Photoing
About Chimère_Photoing
French word for dream or illusion. It reflects the soft surrealism woven through each frame. Using medium format like the Mamiya RB67 and Pentax 645, Sam captures portraits and scenes that feel both real and slightly otherworldly. For motion, Super 8 film adds flicker and texture to short films that move like memory.
Created with intension
About Chimère_Photoing
Created with intension
Film is my medium of choice because it honors the slow unfolding of a moment. Like dreams, each image carries a softness and a subtle imperfection that speaks to what is fleeting and true. With each session, I shoot with intention: no two people, no two stories, and no two frames are the same.
