35mm Film Experiment

It's an incredible feeling when you get your film back from the lab and see that you've created magic. I shot this roll of 35mm Fuji pro 400H film and then damaged it by doing a technique commonly known as "souping". I mixed a solution together and then soaked my film canister in the liquid. After waiting a couple weeks for it to dry, I took the roll to the lab to be developed and scanned. This was my second film soup experiment and I am quite pleased with this series. Scroll through to see a few of my favorites from the roll.  

Retro Arcade / Fair Photoshoot on 35mm film

This retro Arcade/Fair photography series I shot on 35mm Kodak Portra 800 film with model Dru Presta on the Santa Monica Pier.  She was a delight to photograph and looks killer in every shot. I'm very happy with how these images developed. This was my first time using this film stock, Kodak Portra 800. I am so in love with it! The film was the perfect speed and aesthetic, colors are vibrant and vivid, and the grain is silky smooth making for such pretty golden skin tones. You can find Dru on Instagram @g0lden.bebe or myself @femme_natal. Take a look below at some of my favorite shots from this series.
