Jason & Amanda

Award winning fine art photography team
Jason and Amanda Ray are a fine art photography team with a primary focus on traditional film techniques, most notably medium format. With extensive international press & awards, including being named one of the top 3 fine art photography teams globally, Double Negative is taking the photography world by storm.
Jason and Amanda are a husband and wife creative team that enjoys travel, thunderstorms, poetry, fairies, and ghosts. They spend most of their time in cemeteries and deep in the forest, communing with kindred spirits. The duo's art displays what their dreams project, simultaneously melancholy and peacefully surreal.
​
Double Negative Photography explores themes of death and timelessness. We create images in natural light and decaying environments that serve as visual meditations on trauma, healing, and the quiet tension between beauty and ruin.
Our subjects are often partially obscured, anonymous yet intimate. This ambiguity allows the viewer to project their own history into the scene. There is melancholy in the work, but not despair. In the wreckage, we find sanctuary. In the silence, we find ourselves.
We invite the viewer to inhabit the space between ruin and renewal, between the haunted and the healed.
