Seattle-based photographer Tod Gangler explores and manipulates light and color in urban landscapes, using long exposures and color carbon printing.

Gangler fell in love with photography at age six when his grandmother gave him a Kodak Brownie camera. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Connecticut College. In his twenties, Gangler moved to Paris on a fellowship and learned about early photography and mid-19th century color carbon printing. He moved to Seattle in 1979 and spent twenty years studying and mastering carbon printing.
