Color in Clinton

My wife and I had the pleasure of traveling to Presbyterian College in Clinton, South Carolina to capture Amanda and Jesse's engagement session.  They met while attending PC.  We scheduled the session for about an hour before sunset.  The light was beautiful and Amanda and Jesse were a ton of fun.  I can't wait for the wedding in Tallahassee next month.  

Tech Notes:

Riggs Gets A Haircut

About a month ago, I got to photograph Riggs' first haircut.  I thought the old-fashioned barber shop was the perfect place to experiment with film.  I am really pleased with the results.  So pleased in fact that I decided to post every frame on my Facebook page.  Friend me and see them all (look for Booth film).  Here is a selection for you now. 

Tech Notes:  Fuji Neopan 1600 film shot at 1600 with a Nikon FE with 50mm f1.8.  Shot with available light.  Processed and scanned by Richard Photo Lab.  I added a white border, but they are untouched otherwise.

Cherry Blossom Bridal

Here are two scans of the Fuji instant film I shot today during a bridal session at Coleman Hill.  Cherry blossoms in black and white are oddly beautiful.  More to come when the film comes back.

Tech Notes:

Fuji instant FP-3000B film shot with a Polaroid 600SE and 150mm lens.  

Tease From This Weekend

Here are a couple of quick and dirty scans from the Fuji Instant images I created Saturday at Pineola Farms.  The first is way overexposed, but I like it.  Thanks Jenna and Drew.

Tech Notes:  Fuji 100C color instant film shot with a Polaroid 600SE with 150mm lens.  AND, as further evidence of the super cool nature of Fuji instant film, I left these for about 6 hours before pulling them.  

London LomoMatrix

Remeber the Matrix?  It was an amazing movie that used ground-breaking technology to change how time, space and motion were depicted on the big screen.  Dozens of digital still cameras were used to create the signature bullet time effect.  It is a relatively simple concept, but wildly expensive to achieve.  It has been used many times since in other Hollywood movies.


So, want to do it yourself on a budget?  Just get 2 dozen friends with their crappy film cameras.  Look below for the results.  Truly amazing what you can do if you use your imagination.
