“Photography has always been a very magical and mystical art to me,” says Lepejian. “Since the days when I was five years old, watching my father Isgo print in a darkroom, I knew photography was going to be a very big part of my life. While my love for raw, revealing documentary style photos has always been a big part of my work, I love how objects in motion and surreal films like Infrared give a dreamy and surreal feel of another world that we normally don’t see. ‘Time and Space in the Palace of Versailles’ is my interpretation of the opulent excesses of the amazing French palace. Shooting straight documentary style photos do no justice but these distorted, haunting images are a truer representation of what is the reality of its past and present for me.”

Baret has owned and managed A&I with his brother Vic Lepejian since July of 2004. Previous to A&I, the brothers worked with their parents at his father’s namesake lab, Isgo Lepejian. Baret is heavily involved with A&I’s daily Digital C print production and still takes great pleasure in black and white darkroom printing.
