Craft, Captured: Derrin Battles x Leatherman

Derrin Battles doesn’t just photograph tools, he works with them.

This project highlights Derrin’s ability to translate an iconic, hardworking tool into something visually striking without losing its soul. It’s storytelling through simplicity. Craft meeting craft.

His collaboration with Leatherman is rooted in trust, function, and shared values. Like the tools themselves, Derrin’s imagery is intentional, precise, and built to last. Each frame strips away excess, focusing on clean composition, thoughtful color, and purposeful detail.
