Promotion for non
notable photographer. Outside of a little local interest he lacks coverage in independent reliable sources.

Regarding the note from Wikipedia regarding the lack of independent sources: there are at least three different newspapers and at least two government entities that are used as sources. What kind of sources were you looking for? As for the local non notable photographer comment, the subject is noteworthy because he is using a technique that has historical significance and is one of the few people in the world who is using this technique that he taught to himself. This is noteworthy in the art community and the historical community. His work is being documented and archived by government and educational entities and as he gets more noteworthy, this will be documented on his Wikipedia page. — Preceding

Weak keep - Coverage is mostly local but I think it's just enough to pass

Keep. There are quite enough sources in the articles to pass
WP:GNG and
WP:ARTIST. Agree with
Tjf5280 that he's not just some local photographer.
