The films are being developed and scanned and I’ll get them back in a couple of weeks. Here are a few Hasselblad polaroids from today. Hasselblad 500cm, Zeiss Planar T* 80mm...

I don’t know where to begin in describing this photo. It was one of those moments when a magical scene unfolded with the most amazing light. Snapping this shot I wasn’t too sure if I had nailed the focus or not. Shooting with medium format at f/2 is often a real challenge so when I...

I’m going to really miss photographing around areas like this. These were taken in Daikanyama, Tokyo, Japan. This area is quite well known for it’s great cafe’s and shopping. It’s a higher class area so it was fun to roam the back streets and find some really interesting houses and stores. I’ll be posting more...

Been having fun with my Mamiya C330 Professional f twin lens reflex recently. It has the Mamiya Sekor 80mm f/2.8 lens and so far has been so much fun to use. I’ve shot a couple of rolls so they will be getting developed this weekend and I’ll post some of photos next week. I’m really...

This photograph show why I have been so in love with film recently. The way it captures so much detail from shadows to highlights really blew me away. Having really only shot digital until recently I’m so glad that I have listened to other successful photographers in the industry and decided to use more film....

Shot in Shinjuku park, these are a couple of friends that I was hanging out with for the day. I love the look of these and still can’t get over the depth of field that medium format and fast lenses can create. I have a Mamiya C330 on the way with 80mm f/2.8 lens and...
