Photos of my sister Rachel shot on my Holga. These were taken a very long time ago, probably 6-7 years ago. I remember I had just gotten my Holga and all the little cheesy filters that go with it. I shot this roll of my sister when she came to visit and it sat undeveloped until a couple of weeks ago. 

I really like these. I like the double exposures and over lapping. My previous post with the photos of my Dad and Xander seem to be getting positive attention even though I’m just inconsolable in regards to the damage. I just don’t see it as a happy accident, nor is it the nature of the film and camera. It was not intentional or an experiment. I was not in control of the process after the initial exposure and that ,to me, makes them….just plain damaged. But these shots, I don’t mind the imperfections, it’s just the nature of the film and camera. 

I remember having the weird little prism filter on and trying to overlap and double expose things. It was intentional with the knowledge that it was also an experiment where the results would be unknown. It was one of my first rolls of holga film and I’m pretty happy with how these came out :)

On November 11 Mike turned 30. I had a surprise party in the works, hoping to make it a memorable birthday, but through a technical gliche in our iPad he found out! We decided to cancel dinner and go on a road trip for 5 days. Our first stop was Disneyland! Then we headed to San Diego, Julian and finally the Salton Sea. This panorama is taken somewhere between Julian and the Salton Sea on CA 78 in the Anzo-Borrego State Park. We love the desert and mountains and this area had plenty of both, it was fabulous.

I’ve been in LA for a year now. It’s crazy how time can pass so quickly. There are many things, both personal and professional, that should have been accomplished by now. But, the best laid plans often go awry….or get messed up because you’re a lazy bum.
This is the first post for my new blog. A blog free of extraneous information with a focus on all things photography. My photography, your photography and some other photography stuff will be included too…I am sure of it. 
First things first, my website is getting an overhaul with some help from my amazing Mike. Now I’m busy writing some post to be queued up so we can get this party started!
