TRAVEL PHOTOGRAPHY: TORONTO

by admin | Oct 27, 2015 | blog

I left Toronto with one roll of black and white film, one roll of color, and a new friend.

I will be back, sooner than later.

In the summer.

A HIP WEDDING AT THE DUMBO LOFT: MIKE AND DAVE

by admin | Oct 22, 2015 | blog

a really fun, amazing, hip wedding at the dumbo loft

There was no cuter grooms than Mike and Dave.

I had shot their friend Noella’s wedding back in June, and the boys hired me on the spot for their wedding in October. I was glad to spend yet another sweet wedding with this group of friends, so it was a day to look forward to.

I am very familiar with the Dumbo Loft, having shot there multiple times. And what I like the most about it is that it ALWAYS have a completely different feel. Depending on the flowers and seating arrangement you chose, it will always be like stepping into a whole other venue.

The guys had set up their chuppah on one side, and their vegan southern buffet (YES, vegan biscuit and gravy is delicious!) on the other. The middle was reserved for the dancing, and boy, did they dance. Their first dance reminded me of my cardio classes. They were spinning, turning, jumping in each other’s arms during the whole song. It was amazing, and quite hard to follow!

I leave you with the images, because, like I said, there was no cuter grooms than Mike and Dave.

Venue: the Dumbo Loft

Catering: Chickpea and Olive (all vegan!)

A FILM CAMERA ON THE ROAD

by admin | Oct 21, 2015 | blog

So I was hanging out at the Fort Greene Flea Market one morning and stumbled upon a booth filled with awesome film cameras. And the one that caught my attention was the Canon EE-17, a half frame 35mm film camera that takes two photos in one frame.

Being a big fan of coupling photos together, that camera really intrigued me so I bought it, even if I have NEVER liked any of the point and shoot cameras I had used in the past.

I took it with me upstate that same week-end to take a bunch of photos of my pretty friends and the swim holes we were spending our days around. I finished the 72 exposures in a few days, mostly because I was shooting without caution. I did not expect much from it and I wanted to see the results asap, probably before stacking it away with my other point and shoots I never use.

I was not expecting to feel such excitement when I got the negatives back, because I LOVED THEM ALL. The pictures were couples weirdly and perfectly, and told a different story that way. Like a comic strip, but without the funny (for most of them).

I have shot several rolls since that week end, which means I already have hundreds of images stored on my computer. Here are some of my favorite ones.
