Ukrainian photographer Oleg Oprisco creates eerie fairy tale photographs the old-fashioned way, using Soviet-era medium format film cameras and no Photoshoppery. His images often feature elaborate sets and costumes, all of which he makes himself. He uses Kiev 88 and Kiev 6C 6×6 format cameras—he says his 6C is worth about $50.
