I used to not be a huge fan of film for some reason. However, after taking Large Format last semester, which I was a little wary about to begin with, I have fallen in love with film. I love forgetting what I've shot and the anticipation of having to wait to see if the images turned out, rather then knowing instantly. Due to recent technology we are used to doing things fast and having instant results. I feel that shooting film is like going back to our roots and taking the time to really focus on what we're photographing, and truly appreciate the art of photography.
This Christmas I got a Canon-AE Program and was finally able to develop my first few rolls of film. I wasn't sure how accurate the metering system in the camera was, so I went back and forth between guessing, following the meter, and freaking out because I thought I was doing it completely wrong. To my delight, the film came out pretty nice! Most of the exposure was fairly accurate, but some were really underexposed as I assumed they would be when I shot them. I'm posting only a few shots from the rolls.....one because I wasn't thinking and left a roll in the lab and two, I have some pics of my family and grandparents I haven't edited yet and want to post all together. So more glorious film posts will be coming soon!
I don't know where this is.....but there is a possibility it might have been taken while I was driving. What's worse, txting and driving or photographing and driving?
Downtown hanging out with Jessi, Ian and Matt over break!!! I love them so much!!
Oh my gosh, he's smiling, yay!!
Thanks for looking and stay tuned for more upcoming shoots!!
