Beyond Dreams: Lily Chen Shoots with the Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lens

What appears to be ephemeral visions or dreams can be captured in reality. This is what fine art photographer and artist Lily Chen proves in this set of photos taken with the Lomography Daguerreotype Achromat lens. These shots blend fantasy and reality seamlessly, with every shot carefully blurring the line between the two very different landscapes.

The approach that Lily used to take these photographs are varied but the goal is the one and the same—to communicate. She confesses that she's not the best when it comes to words but with photography, she's able to convey what she feels with a medium that best suits her. The result is a collection of highly-stylized portraits that were accentuated with the Daguerreotype Achromat's dreamy and moody effects. It's easy to compare Lily's photographs with scenes from novels filled with colorful and unique fictional characters.

Lily used the Daguerreotype Achromat to transform her creative musings into a wonderful visual showcase. The Daguerreotype Achromat Art Lens can turn ordinary scenes into artistic visions.
