honest and real

this session was shot 100% on film at a Best Western motel in Calgary, Alberta. i wanted to try something different. i wanted to try a different location. a location not typically associated with sessions like this. i wanted to step away from the overdone ultra modern hotel or studio with a black leather chair and a shay lounge. i wanted it to be about beauty. about light. not artificial light or hot lights. but natural light. no perfectly manicured hair and barbie doll makeup. i wanted it to be honest and real.

so here it is. a frame from Anna’s session captured on a hasselblad 500C/M and {i believe} Portra 800 film. to see the rest of her session please visit my new portrait site:

sasha - beautiful!

so here it is

it’s scary. or maybe it’s the fear of failure that’s scary. or perhaps it’s the fear of failure and a hurt ego that is scary. if i am being honest with myself i’d say that’s it. i have no idea if this will take off as perspectiveye has. no one knows. i hope it does. i dream that is does. but i don’t know. all i know is i have wanted to do something like this for a while now and my fears and excuses have always seem to make my decision for me. so many reasons why i cant do it. why i shouldn’t do it. really all just excuses.

so here it is. it’s not a huge body of work. to be honest i wouldn’t even call it a body of work yet. but it’s my work. it’s what i have right now and i have to start somewhere. portrait. fashion. commercial. i want to try new things. i am still shooting weddings as i love the emotion. the celebration. the connection but i want to explore more. so if you are interested in working together please let me know and let’s explore together.
