yosemite National Park is seriously the most perfect place to shoot with films that are larger than 35mm…more to come!
In early January, we were able to meet up with Kevin and Nicole to capture their love story. Upon receiving Nicole’s story, I knew right away that this shoot was going to be classic. Kevin is in the military. Twice in the past two years, he has been away for an extended period of time, reducing their communication to handwritten letters.
Lately I’ve been trying to master pushed film and I’m learning every attempt that trial and error is the only way to get there. On December 29, 2012 I headed towards Harrisonburg to visit Gold Crown Billiards Bar and Grill. Long time friend, and current New Yorker, Nick Pascarella, was to play a reunion show there with his old band, Annie’s Tragedy. What a perfect opportunity for pushed film!
I’ve been waiting to share this session for some time now. Before the cold set in, we met up with Jordan and Lisa for an engagement shoot in the woods. I had an idea for an engagement shoot involving a fire with s’mores, so we included it in this session of much variety. From sports to (pretending to be) playing music, to hiking, to flannels. . .Jordan and Lisa share many interests. It was very easy to identity with them on this issue! They were so very lovely to work! Aneila and I are excited to be filming their wedding within the next few years! Enjoy!
