Honestly I think everyone here would like this....

I have a coffee table book coming out soon. Avant-garde stuff. All pinball. I’m a photojournalist and have been busy documenting Pinball. It isn’t easy, trust me, if the machines themselves aren’t your primary focus.

On Instagram at @pinball.by.xtn
On Facebook at PINBALLBYXTN

Content-wise, I try to capture the experience and mood of pinball in the now. There’s a balance between action shots (the literal) and the ones that are meant to evoke the experience through unconventional, yet very intentional techniques.

Mostly shot in NYC (IFPA Player Number 19035) and since-I-was-a-teen player.

Nothing is for sale. Tag yourself if you want. No pressure to follow me, but if you like an image, that means a flickton, so mark it so.

Looking for title suggestions.

Most images are deleted from Instagram after a few weeks but are typically replaced with something else. To keep things fresh.

Unfortunately the plans for shooting more content this Spring have been cancelled. This gives me the opportunity to finalize what I have so far (editing thousands of frames) but will not have the content I wanted to balance it all.

Thus, there may be a Volume Two down the line.

Feedback, dislikes, rants and MOST IMPORTANTLY suggestions are encouraged. DM me.

I shoot using the Fujifilm X series. The X-Pro2 and X-T3 with prime lenses from 14mm to 90mm

Also looking for spare Shaq Attaq parts as well as high def flatbed scans of the upper playfield.

And it’s totally cool if you don’t like it and feel like verbalizing it.

Word.

Quoted from Fulltilt:

10 years later and I notice how wonderfully and unintentionally framed this was.

Fascinating image. I love it.

Intentionally shot this way.

Slow(ish) shutter speed. Moving subject. Super wide angle lens. Underexposed.

Unconventional.

Amazing work. I can’t shoot machines for some reason. Love it.

I’m not bad at photographing people playing.

I just finished this special piece. I’m going to add some to a Pinside shop as soon as they ship.

As for the subject matter, well.... it’s pinball, it’s f*#king Brooklyn, it’s 2020 and there is no location Pinball.

Imagine having a really solid flipper spot in NYC. Imagine it being closed for most of the last year. Imagine, after months of waiting, to reopen at limited capacity. Then the post-thanksgiving surge. Closed.

Keep an eye out.

And vote for my previous pinball book ‘Just Pinball’ for a TWIPY while you can for Favorite Publication if it isyour favorite.

Lastly, support your local arcade.
