Original analog pinhole photographs of Asheville, North Carolina and beyond.

Pinhole photography is considered one of the oldest forms of photography, dating back centuries. Based on the camera obscura, a lightproof box with a tiny hole in the side, it creates a photograph by projecting an upside-down image onto light sensitive photo paper inside the box.

About

Pinholepropaganda is the creative vision of Chad Colwell, an Appalachian native with a background in studio art and graphic design. Taking striking pinhole photographs that merge vintage techniques with modern Appalachian life and urban decay, his work reflects a unique fusion of nostalgic charm and contemporary edge. Using a pinhole camera, a phtographic technique that’s centuries old, he captures the essence of modern day life in Asheville, NC and beyond.
