My Sister's Bridals Part 2

I took my sister back out to Utah Lake to do a few more large format bridal photos. I'm please with a lot of them. She's beautiful.

Two More Portraits of Ecuador

I had a couple of rolls of 120 that were only half shot. I finally finished one of them and processed it. Here are a couple more portraits for Ecuador. One is of an old beggar woman with crippled legs. The other of a older gentleman.

My Sister's Bridals

My youngest sister Betty Jo, is getting married this month. I took some bridal shots of her. They're a little outside of standard Utah wedding photography. I shot them near Utah Lake with my Shen Hao 4x5 camera and a 210mm lens. I used Kodak Tmax 100 film. I scanned them and added a Polaroid Type 55 border.

LensWork Extended

I recently submitted my American Biker project to LensWork Magazine. They have informed me that my portfolio will be published in the next issue (#77) of LensWork Extented. Which is a subscription DVD that contains additional portfolios and interviews. Brooks Jensen(the editor of LensWork) will be interviewing me next week and that will be included in the DVD.

LensWork is no longer available on newstands, but it can be purchased online at: www.lenswork.com.

Type 55 Polaroid - Utah Lake

One of my favorite films: Type 55 Polaroid, has been discontinued. I was lucky enough to be able to get my hands on one more box of it. $90 for 20 sheets. Kind of expensive. Today I made one exposure of Utah Lake. I used a 10 stop Neutral Density filter to get my shutter speed up to about 1/2 hour. The image isn't amazing, but worth posting on the blog.

Yashica C - Twin Lens Reflex

A few years ago I bought an old Yashica C TLR camera. I only ran one roll of film through it and never printed any of them because of poor quality. Just today I was flipping through some old negatives and found them. I thought I'd scan them in just because. The quality is pretty low, but they have a unique look, which I really like. They are both of Utah Lake.
