Maple Syruping 2019

April 26, 2019Life, Photography

Maple Syrup season is my favorite time of the year, and two weeks ago the season ended (for me, anyway). As usual, I took way too many photos. It was a blast.

Photos shot on a mix of my Canon AE-1P, Olympus XA2, Fuji GW690iii, and Fuji X100F, on a variety of film (mainly fuji superia 400 or C200 for the 35mm). This was also my first time shooting Cinestill 800T (and doing it on 120!) and I’m absolutely hooked. As a lover of Kodak Vision3 already, I am not surprised.

Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse on Film

February 14, 2019Photography

A few weeks ago, like many, I captured the Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse, but I did it on film with my 135mm fixed lens. A light leak slipped in which I think was just wonderful. Considering I shot on a tripod without any stabilization or cable release, I’m pretty happy with how they turned out.

Almost Blood Moon

January 21, 2019Life, Photography

Everyone got a photo of the blood moon lunar eclipse already so I’ll skip that.

I took this photo with my iPhone through the viewfinder of my Minolta SRT100 of the moon rising. This viewfinder is dusty and dim and discolored and I love it. This was my first film camera and will always be my favorite.

My first photography show

October 30, 2018Photography

Over the weekend I participated in my first photography show ever. This show came together thanks to my friend Josh who wanted to put together a benefit show for breast cancer research around film photography.

I’ve never done anything like this and have never considered myself an “artist.” Suffice to say this pushed me way out of my comfort zone. In particular, trying to curate all my random 35mm film photos into something cohesive was way harder than I expected.

The show ended up being a great success and I had a wonderful time. I wound up putting together a set of black and white photos that showed a mood and style that made me fall in love with in film in the first place. A little surreal, a little dream-like. I joked with a few people that if they left feeling a little unnerved about my photos or with a newfound sense of longing, then I was successful.

Here are some of the photos I shared (and some I wanted to but didn’t make the cut). Most shot on a Minolta SRT100 and mainly Ilford HP5+. A few were home developed in D-76.
