Realized today I was behind in blog posting, so in catching up I'm going to post one of the more interesting film experiments I have done lately. This photo set was taken on an overcast day in Duluth, MN, through the trails that wind past St. Scholastica and practically terminate at my partners parents back … Continue reading Cross Processing – An Experiment

Portrait Session – Rachael, pt. 2

The session was divided in to 3 segments - first, a daytime outdoor … Continue reading Portrait Session – Rachael, pt. 2

It's been one of those perpetually weird winters where there's lots of snow but in-between heavy snowfalls there's unpredictable other weathers blowing through. One morning had dense, wet fog that coated all of the trees with thick white frost. Driving from … Continue reading Duluth in Winter / Early Spring
