Lining Ducks Up

Or should I say, ducks lining up? I haven't shot in film for about a year, and recently, I came to acquire a new (old) camera, a Zeiss Ikon Contaflex, that's gotten me excited about film again. Since shooting with this camera, I've scanned 2 rolls of film, that I'm really excited about. I have over 16 rolls of 120mm film that need to be processed, scanned, and cataloged. So aside from my regular 8-10hr job, I will continue to work on the film I have at hand.

I almost forgot, I have over 20 rolls of 35mm film that has already been scanned but still needs to be cataloged. This is my life now.

Here's a few shots from a roll I scanned recently:

The last image of your's truly was taken by Michelle Corvino, I'm taking a photo of her with her 35mm Minolta SLR.

Update: Jacque and Jeremy Pfaff Wedding

Joe Pug at the Satellite, Los Angeles CA

In blue and red lights, he appeared just wide eyed and somewhat weary. His energy was unmistakable. His voice, roughed out and rounded by life, he performed with a luster that lit up the room. Thanks for dropping by Los Angeles Joe.

Take a listen:

Morning Portraits in the Mountains and Donuts

A long time ago, my friends and I went up the mountain to just hang out. The air was crisp with the fragrance of the pine trees that surrounded us, the sky was partly cloudy and there was a gentle breeze. We spent some time up there and drove down to get some donuts.

I love impromptu portraits, I love the sincerity of who people are as they look at the camera, unprepared for it.

William Bishop Senior Photos

I took some senior graduation pictures for my buddy Will.

These last two photographs were from hanging out in 2008.

Quick Headshots at the Office

My friend and co-worker is auditioning for community theater, he asked me if I could take quick headshots for him at the office

Emily's Graduation Photos

This is Emily. She is, for many reasons, beautiful. I took a series of portraits for her graduation.

On this last shot, I set the camera on timer, and I ran to her.

Byron's Senior Recital Photos

These are a few photos from a photoshoot I did for my good friend Byron Tomes. He was in need of photos for his senior recital and so, he asked me if I would be willing to take photos of him. Long story short, we hung out with Lauren, and took a bunch of photos. I did some post production work with the shots, and Lauren did some final typography.

This was my first photoshoot and I'm really glad I did it with a friend.

The final product was posters and postcards... this project was really all about Byron. He's such an amazing guitarist.

The final composition... see it with the typography at Lauren's Blog
