California State Fair

leave a comment

I had a lovely reunion with the “photo kids” (college friends from my major). We went on a little photo field trip to the California State Fair in Sacramento. I shot with a Holga for the most part, but took a few with my digital camera as well. A few of my favorites below + me at the Solano County booth! :) You can see the whole set here.

Tomales Point, Point Reyes: x-processed

leave a comment

x-processing / cross-processing; 1) a procedure in which slide film is deliberately processed using c-41 chemicals, resulting in a negative image; 2) something I’ve always wanted to try.

I shot a roll of Kodak Ektachrome back in 2009 with my Olympus RC-35 rangefinder, and then totally forgot about it. I found the finished roll in my camera this week and brought it over to the lab for processing. $15 but not too bad considering I got some amazing photographs from my foggy hike in Point Reyes back in September 2009. These were all shot on the Tomales Point Hiking Trail. The rest of the photographs can be found in my Flickr, but a few of my favorites…

jeff – senior portrait session

leave a comment

I spent Saturday afternoon on campus and roaming around Old Sacramento with my good friend Jeff. This shot along the train tracks is my favorite from the set. I really love how his blue shirt pops against the bright yellow of the old train; and even more so, I am loving the reflections and colors in the windows. A few more favorites: here and here.

Congratulations, Jeff!

Jill Thomas has posted a sneak peek of our wedding photographs! The ones featured in her blog were amazingly shot with film and turned out so beautiful. Nick and I are so happy that we chose Jill to capture our special day. We can’t wait to see everything else! I have a couple of Polaroids she shot that day which I’ve also been meaning to scan.
