Getting Abstract With The Olympia SM3
I appreciate good solid machines. Which is part of the reason I love working with film cameras. I also have a great amount of affection for old typewriters too.
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.
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.
Shadow Detail With Film
I didn’t intend for this photograph to be so contrasty. However, sometimes fate has other plans when working with black and white film and that is perfectly ok with me.
Fujifilm Neopan Acros II: Two In The Studio
Two images in the studio made with Fuji Acros II medium format black and white film. I absolutely love Fuji Acros and don’t work with it often enough!
