The Right Light



Its been brought to my attention that I take alot of Portraits. They are not professional, they are not perfect, but they are the photos I adore the most. I feel like portraits of any sort are really special. Its a chance to just be one on one with the camera, and its fun. With the sx-70, portraits are always hit or miss. It really depends on the natural light because the color balance for the film is all backwards. I took this portrait of Miles as a tester for the wedding portraits I shot, and I took the one of Alex while we were in Chinatown on a very cloudy adventure. As you can see, both of their faces are blown out, but I dont mind so much, I think they look handsome and different than normal which leads me to really scrutinize the emotion or lack of in the photo.
