I am completely enamored with film photography.

Shooting with my Holga camera (as seen on my other website‘s HOLGA section under the gallery called THREE), has been quite the struggle to say the least. Mine is not modified at all, so the results I get are almost a complete surprise because of the incredibly poor way in which it was built. That’s just how Holga is. It’s part of the fun.

But then I bought the Canon EOS Elan 7E for a ridiculously cheap $55, and now I actually have a light meter! I actually have focus points! I actually have access to great lenses (the same ones I use professionally)!

In short, now I finally have the control I need from my rolls of film, and I can get what I want rather than hope for some happy accidents.

Let me start with one shot from my beloved Holga, then the rest is all taken with the Elan.

Oh my… What beautiful colors you have…

These are from a photo excursion with two special ladies in my life. Lori, thanks for tagging along in the cold, and Brittany, thanks for inviting me. Where are YOUR shots anyway?? Here’s to you both

Sledding fun with the boys!

This is from a recent engagement shoot (coming soon), a past model shoot and then a random shot from wandering around on a recent foggy afternoon.

I know I’ve been awfully quiet around here since a couple days before Christmas, but I should be back to normal now. Keep your eyes peeled for more… stuff
