5 Frames… Of CineStill 800T (35mm Format / EI 800 / Nikon F3 + Nikon Zoom-Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8 AF-D)
There’s a big difference between capturing someone as they are and modeling someone to appear as they are. Does that make sense? One of my friends I was photographing said something that caught my attention during our first time making portraits. She said that last time she was photographed the pictures came out feeling fake. […]

5 Frames… Of Kodak Portra 400 under tungsten light, color corrected in post (35mm Format / EI 400 / Nikon F3 + Nikon 50mm f/1.8 Series E)
A lot has been written about the famous Nikon F3, so I decided to make it a little bit more personal and tell the story of how I shot my first roll of film in a Nikon camera. So, I was there in the middle of the lockdown, a cinematographer choosing to sell my digital […]

5 Frames… Of 1977-expired Agfapan 100 Professional with a Nikon FM2n (35mm format / EI 50 / Nikkor 50mm f/2.0 AI)
Since the beginning of the pandemic, I started shooting film next to digital photographs. I wanted to become a better photographer and as there were no more music events (I am a photographer in the music scene), I felt it was the right time to take on this analogue challenge. After about 10 rolls of […]
For new black and white film, say the secret codeword: “Kosmo Foto Agent Shadow”…but is it really a film noir film?
London-based Kosmo Foto recently announced their Kickstarter for a new film stock: Agent Shadow, a 35mm ISO 400 black and white panchromatic film that can be rated to at least EI 3200. The film is penciled in for a September 2021 release and I was lucky enough to be given a couple of rolls to […]
5 Frames… Of my return to black and white film photography on Kodak T-MAX 100 (35mm Format / EI 100 / Nikon N90 + NIKKOR 80-200mm f/4.0)
I am located in La Ceja, a municipality 40 km from Medellín, Colombia’s second city in South America. For my return to the chemical process of black and white film photography, I dusted off my old Nikon N90 camera, which I used commercially in combination with the Nikon F4 in the last decade of the […]

5 Frames… With a Nikon S2 and original Fujifilm NEOPAN 100 ACROS in Downtown Calgary
I think the main thing I need to state before anything else is I’m not a rangefinder man. I’ve shot them and had, for the most part, mixed feelings about them. Examples of rangefinders I’ve liked include the Argus C3, and the Kiev 4. So when I say I liked the Nikon S2, despite what […]
5̶ 6 Frames… Of Hand-lettered double exposures on Kodak Portra 400 (35mm Format / EI 400 / Nikon FM2n
Before I ditched my smartphone, four or five years back, I used to make hand-lettering composites with it. I would ink out a design in my sketchbook, snap an iPhone pic, invert it, and mash it together with a photo in Photoshop Mix. I could eat a sandwich and pump out a little piece of […]

5 Frames… Of Old Main Street, Fort Worth, Texas (35mm Format / EI 400 / Nikon FA + Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AI)
As a film photographer, I am always drawn to some of the more timeworn parts of town, so to speak, and that propensity for the foregone cannot be more satisfied than in the old part of Main Street in Fort Worth, Texas. The old Main Street has tons of classic heritage but it’s not immune […]
Less than the sum of its parts? The Nikon F3P, a press camera
Back in the day, the “stock” Nikon F3 was so popular amongst Japanese photojournalists that Nikon decided to make a “Press” or “Professional” version to the Japanese market. Apparently, only accredited photojournalists could get their hands on one of these babies, so only limited quantities were produced until… Nikon decided to make extra ones called […]
