Film Portrait + the Fourth
- Posted on:
- 04 July 2008
At Jamie and Sam’s wedding, I shot about five photographs with a roll of medium format film on a Mamiya. I used to shoot a great deal of film, but fell into the digital trap for time, convenience and security reasons. That said, a lot of clients have recently been asking me about using film at their weddings, so I believe I’m going to be offering it as a special add-on. If you are a new or current client and are interested in having me shoot some photographs with film, please inquire for more details.
Here’s a lovely portrait of Sam. Very similar to digital one below, but I think film carries a lovely, real-life texture and works with colour in ways that digital can’t always.
And, a completely unrelated photo, but here is one I shot on the blue line using a long exposure. Some might call this a mistake, but I love these sorts of photographs, especially when they showcase parts of the city.
Last, but not least, I’m on my way out the door to head up to Michigan for a few days. I got a new toy yesterday, so perhaps you’ll see something unexpected after I get back! At any rate, e-mails may be delayed a bit over the weekend. I hope everyone has a lovely Fourth of July weekend spent with friends or family, and be sure to check back soon. I have one more post related to Jamie + Sam’s wedding followed by weeks of all weddings all the time.
