OK So...
I suck at this medium. I really do! I can't wait for a digital camera, though I will always be a film fan and will still work with it, I just have really begun to appreciate the technology of the digital age.
Things I like about large format?
- GORGEOUS shots
- Your friends think you're crazy
- Lots of attention in public
- You're forced to take your time and really think about the shot.
- Nothing beats a good "click"
Things I dislike about large format.
- You're forced to take your time and really think about the shot.
- Just because you got all 6 shots doesn't mean you're done. You still have to develop and print them.
- I can never return the camera in the right condition, I feel like I always return it in some sort of sad shape. This upsets me because if I had a million dollars to give away I would give it to the UVU photo program. I really do care about the equipment it just seems like I don't.
- I can only logically take 6 shots, it's logical because it would be SO MUCH work to take any extra.
- I violently dislike fiber paper.
I was lucky to have a pretty model yesterday! My good friend Lacey volunteered to head out in the snow with me and freeze to death.
These other shots I was still getting used to the medium. I have taken much more pictures but they just didn't turn out properly ;(
Gorgeous shots, Laura! All the hard work certainly paid off. And Lacey makes an incredible model!!
