A LONG AWAITED ROLL


Kodak Portra 400





I, in no way, have mastered the art that is film. But it does many things for me. It forces me to slow down, take my time, give it all in one burst. It also allows me to practice the creation of quality over quantity. And lastly, film gets me to a place of being uncomfortable (because I'm much more comfortable with my dslr, being able to look at all 27 shots of one tree...) which stretches me as a photographer and artist.  The start of this roll was in the end of winter until now, the heart of summer - so, longly awaited haha.

    1. Thank you Emma! Suggestions? Always be taking photos. It's crazy how much comfort and improvement you gain by just being behind the camera every day (like for real, every day haha). And also, don't compare. Comparing your work to others will only drag you down and discourage. The less you compare, the more you can improve the crazy, creative, strong artist you are!
