Marco developed the negatives in his darkroom, alone. The red safety light made the room feel like a womb or a wound. He lowered the first sheet into the chemical tray.

After that, MDG Photography changed. Marco still didn't advertise "ghost photography." But sometimes, a client would arrive with a strange request. A child who wanted a photo with a "tall man in a hat" who only appeared in the hallway mirror. A widow who saw her husband’s silhouette in the kitchen at 4 PM. He waited

Marco would listen. Then he’d say, "I don't photograph ghosts. But if you bring me to a place where love hasn't left the room yet… I’ll bring my camera."
