Muddy Fork Photoshoot

    Morgan and I camped at Muddy Fork off Lolo Pass and took some fun photos. These are the digital shots from the XH2s. Film shots will be up once they’re developed and scanned.
 


New Tripod Tests

Early July, 2025

    I was graciously gifted a fluid-head tripod from my parents and brother. It is opening new doors for me when it comes to framing and camera motion. Below are a few tests as I begin to work with it. 
 


Birthday Dinner on the Sandy River

July 5th, 2025

    Morgan and I brought our camping stove to the Sandy and grilled up a delicious steak, with pearled couscous, a salad, and wine. We got a few shots on the RB67, and her Maxxum 7000.

Tashana & My Birthday Party

June 28th, 2025

    I switched between a few cameras. First was the 600si with a 50mm f1.4 lens and Street Candy 400:
 

    Followed by the Nikon F2, also with a 50mm f1.4 lens, and E100:


Then some shots from the XH2s. 18-55mm, f2.8-f4.5 lens with a black mist filter. Pretty sure I was using Classic Chrome with auto white balance, skewed to low blues and high reds:


Then some Portra 400 also in the 600si, with the 50mm f1.4 lens. 


    Special thanks to Willi for taking the shots with me in them!
    Lastly, the 650si with the 28-75mm f2.8 lens and a green filter, shooting Rollei Superpan 200, pushed to 400iso.

First 35mm Ektachrome Roll

Late June, 2025

    This was my first Ektachrome roll in 35mm. I shot a roll of 120 at the Blue Bason in Oregon. It definitely has that blue tint, but it looks great in bright sun. Shot with a Nikon F2, with a 50mm f1.4 lens.  
 

Some shots of Morgan, the river we were at, and a palm tree:



First Canon AE-1 Roll

Late June, 2025

    Shot on some TriX 400, pushed to 800iso. Most shots are from a hang at Bar Loon with Nick, Emily, Aiden, Jordan, Todd & Margot.
 

With some extra cat photos and Morgan photos:


The camera works perfectly! 28mm f2.5 Vivitar lens.
