Morning Fog On Film
Photographing the morning fog with one of my favorite people to collaborate with. There is something magical in the fog. The way it absorbs the sound of the camera shutter and makes everything seem so peaceful and still. Truly one of my favorite environments to capture on film.
Causal Nudity With The Rolleiflex TLR
Sometimes you start the day not intending to make any photographs. It feels a little bit special when you end the day having made an image that you are quite fond of.
Star Trails With Black & White Film
I’ve done a few experiments with star trail photography on black and white film. I wouldn’t say any of my attempts have been one hundred percent successful, but I also plan on trying again in the near future.
The Oregon Garden
A visit to the Oregon Garden on a beautiful spring afternoon of course led to a very quick photo session while nobody was looking. It wasn’t a situation where the model and I could take our time, but we made a rather spectacular image anyway.
Kodak Portra With Some Lens Flare
Working with Kodak Portra color film on a very warm summer day. I love working with color negative film. There is a nice blend of grain and grit to it while also showing off fantastic details, especially when working with medium format film.
Slower Speed 35mm Film (Rollei RPX 25)
I don’t often work with slow speed film, though I probably should. Working with Rollei RPX 25 produces brilliant results on 35mm film. It can be tough to keep the contrast under control, but when well exposed I really just can’t fault the results.
When The Camera Becomes A Prop
It is a bit of a cliche for photographers to hand their camera to a model and photograph them making an image back at you. Pretty much every fashion photographer, portrait photographer, and figure study photographer has done it. I am by no means an exception here. I’ve done it plenty. In fact, I’ve done it a lot!!
First Shot With A Pentax 67
Taking a Pentax 67 out for a test drive. There is just no denying the big 6×7 negatives are breathtaking to look at and scan incredibly easily. I’m sure I’ll be using this camera a while lot more.
Panon Widelux F8 - First Roll
The Panon Widelux has got to be one of the most unique cameras ever invented. It has a unique “swivel” lens that creates panoramic images on a roll of 35mm film. These images are from my very first roll of film with the camera.
Tiny Details Make A Difference
As a photographer I sometimes obsess over tiny details. Of course it may seem silly to consider the placement of the model in your frame as a “tiny detail”.
