KODAK MOMENT of the Day

There is no great gift than friendship. Santa has been my friend for many years and sharing the gift with my grandson on his first Christmas is a priceless moment... a gift I will treasure.

Santa has been hard at work and now it's time to go glamping. He's ready for a much needed vacation. 

A moment from a recent trip with our best friends and their little girl, who is a ray of sunshine. I adore her. I took this photo to capture a moment from her nighttime routine which is bath, brush teeth and bed time story. 

Short break on our way back

This portrait is the reason I love capturing portraits.

Eating out last homegrown watermelon and being silly

It was an amazing feeling when you came to know that the clothes suits your pet and she look's adorable 🥰 

Anyone else feel like this month has gone by so quickly?​
​
I've been reflecting a lot on the season I've gone through with my family & the season I'm currently in.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Something that I'm definitely proud of is being able to prioritize my business around my family & everyday busy lifestyle. It's so easy to feel like I want & need more, but never sacrificing my family allowed for success to still happen. ​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Today I sit in gratitude. As much pressure I put on myself, God finds a way to provide.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Are you reflecting at all this month? What's something you've learned that you're taking with you into the future?

During the master a fantastic bond was formed between girls from all over the province of Bari ..... Maria had been missing for a very long time and when we saw her again we welcomed her with a fantastic song 

Had a creative block.. before getting to the shooting site but everything became clear when I saw the sunset and a beautiful garden.. the rest is jpegs

A bunch of us set out for Long Beach in Tofino  BC. It was late august which  is always my favourite time to go because the sunsets are absolutely amazing and there’s always airplanes landing right behind the beach. This time I didn’t forget my film like the previous trip (facepalm) so the hype was real. Well It didn’t take too long for a plane to meander into my frame while I was taking a picture of my buddy with his surfboard annnnnd *Click* 

My dear friend Lemon asked me to take engagement photos for her and her fiancé earlier this autumn. It was my first time doing couple portraits on film, but I'm so happy with how they turned out. These shots really capture their love for each other and their life in the Chinese countryside. 

Sitting in the door of the wardrobe leading to Narnia and having a book open on her lap created a beautiful double meaning for this portrait of my daughter. Taken in my childhood home. 

My little girl had just woke up from her nap and I set her on this little table. Our new puppy absolutely loves her and had to be up by her to make sure she was safe. They’re the best little friends. 

The elated feeling one gets when a client pays for a job well done.

We’ve captured together moment of mother and daughter reading books having fun and cuddling. Story worth to watch ❤️

After finishing a short hike up a hill with a rocky peak, I looked over at my buddy boy, Axel, and snapped a photo. It warmed my heart to look back at my phone and see how Axel smiled back at me.

This photo was taken in San Francisco, CA. 

Enjoying a warm winter day by exploring the river at sunset. 

Milo shot around Birmingham on a cold morning while back. Shot on a Contax G2 with a lovely little 35mm Carl Zeiss prime lens on Kodak Portra 400 then scanned on my Plustek8200i⠀

Something our little family loves is traveling together. Road trips are a way for us to connect while we journey to a fun destination. Even our dog Atlas has a smile in the backseat, ready to go!

Our orange (tailless) manx cat, Edgrrrr, loves getting his morning drink from our sink. 

My grandmother used to have a cottage on the river and it was a place that served as the backdrop for many family activities and events growing up. This picture was made during one of our last summers there. My sister was watching me adjust my camera and when I saw her composure I just lifted and clicked without a second thought. It felt like a scene that would be important again one day. 

This was a family shoot and the weather was so bad.

We found an interesting place where we could shoot without getting wet. 

My son is in 8th grade now and I can’t believe he’ll start high school next year. In a blink of an eye he’ll be in college and I’ll miss seeing him doing his homework at the dining table. Images like this are even more valuable to me as time goes by. 

On January 3, 2022, Washington, DC received 8.5 inches of snow. It only lasted one day. I decided to seize upon the moment, load up some Kodak Portra 400 in my Canon AE-1 Program, and shoot some photos on Capitol Hill. I met up with some friends and shot this sweet photo of them!

This moment came from a 5 week trip travelling around the U.S. and Canada. 

Son and dad tuning up, changing cords and admiring the beautiful new electric guitar just bought this afternoon.

My husband and I are trying to get the boys outside more often. We are all definitely happier when we are active instead of couch potatoes.

We traveled to Spain to spend time with my parents and each other. We hiked up the hills with the six of us near Relleu and it was stunning!

Days spent together. Papa and Frankie, the best of buddies who love their days together exploring. Walking, public transport, eating out, parks, plane spotting, you name it they do it.  I loved this photo I captured of a frosty Winter morning, the sunlight and them hand in hand.

Holidays on the coasts of Chile.

This image is taken from the first roll of my new medium format camera, Pentax 645 on a 155mm lens. I enjoy shooting portraits most, and there’s something special about taking portraits of the girl you love. This one marked a special weekend, with many more to come.

Our everyday routine: connection with Mother Nature energies.

This picture was captured in the beautiful city of Aswan, located in Egypt! This temple was dedicated to the Isis, the Goddess of Healing.

A quick snack break off the road with my childhood best friend ❤️

This photo was taken of my 10 month old son. Smile makes people happy.

It was a reunion captured at a friend’s farewell party. Where you see a friend I had known since high school, the sister of my friend who had moved and her friend. 
It was a night of nostalgia & toasting cheers to new memories & friendships :)

As a street photographer moments like these bring me immense joy. An artist in their element singing their heart out purely for the love of the craft. You could tell this musician loves what he does. That human passion, that’s what gets me.

This is our little Mila the Diva in total relax mode. She loves daddy’s arms. She’s definitely spoiled but also very loving. 

Our family of three enjoying breakfast together. We try to eat as many meals as possible together at the table. 

As a travel & street photographer, I always look for frames that tell stories. And finding this frame while photographing the streets of Old Dhaka, Bangladesh is a favourite of mine for it depicts the unconditional love and bond between an aged couple being the support of each other.

My boyfriend and I like to travel around the world and discover new cities. That day we had been to Hamburg. We discovered many cool places there and ended the day under "Palms of Plastic".

Every now and then I buy a disposable camera and snap away. Took the camera with me to a wedding and caught some beautiful moments! 

A shot of me (@1stimefilm) taken by a friend whilst having dinner and drinks together

It was a great day on the slopes, I love winter and shared moments with my husband❤️

This is a picture of my baby sister at the beach in Guatemala during the holidays. I’m trying to take as many pictures of her and my family so we can share them all later in life.

Quiet night at the coast. 

A delicate exchange of the human and animal relationship. When we look to animals, we should see their gentle qualities, and aspire to be gentle ourselves.

My little swimmers (and Jasper). So proud of Bertie and Millie being so brave in their first few swimming lessons. 

Hunny giving us a smolder while she practices wearing her eye protection which is super important for service animals!
