I’m about to re-release a small print run of Smoking Chefs. This is an all new version of the book, revised and completely redesigned, with some additional images I made more recently.

The original version came out in 2018 and I re-printed the book a few times in small batches. Since the last copies sold out about five years ago, I’d been focusing on other projects. But it’s still one of my favourite projects and I keep going back to Chinatown occasionally. And I’m still getting asked about the book.
Smoking Chefs (132 pages, 65 colour photographs, 20x25cm, hardcover, digitally printed) is available for pre-order now. It should be ready to ship in late November. Link in Bio.
“Quietly intimate, the photos that make up Smoking Chefs hum with a sense of behind the scenes stillness that keeps us going back to them time and time again.”
– It's Nice That
“Simultaneously intimate, voyeuristic, weary, sad and timeless.”

"Enkelmann’s cinematic approach to something so human and relatable makes it difficult to look away."
– Plain Magazine
"If you are going to make photographs on the streets, make them this good!"
