Louisville, Kentucky

We took a trip to Louisville a while ago and as it turns out, Louisville is really, really cool.  You can read more about the trip here, but here are some of my film highlights.

Quail Run night photos

After coming home from a movie at midnight I couldn't help but grab my tripod and take a few shots of the odd lighting outside.  The moon was bright and there was a lot of fog.  These were taken at midnight but some of them look like the could have been taken at twilight.  It's been a while since I've taken night photos and it's always a surprise to see how they turn out.

Large Format Portraits

These family pictures were all taken on my large format camera.  I bought this camera a year ago and came close to selling it a few times.  It's very expensive to buy the film and have it developed.  It takes about 10 full minutes to set up one shot.  It's cumbersome and a total pain.  We have a love hate relationship, the large format camera and I.  I've always found it difficult to do portraits with this thing as I like to capture certain moments that's not quite possible with this camera.  However, using it in the studio has been pretty great.  So I think I'll keep it around for a bit.



PS this is what it looks like when I shoot with this monster of a camera:
