KODAK MOMENT of the Day

This was my second self-organized photo shoot, and I feel fortunate that my friend volunteered to be my model. As a photographer, I am continuously learning and evolving, and occasionally, I reflect on past experiences, imagining how I could have approached things differently. Nevertheless, I must admit that this particular photo remains to be one of my favourites.

He used to be afraid of fountains, but this day  he went inside without hesitation.

I felt his growth.

🐱 Best friends. A candid capture of the everyday life

I was heavily inspired by the colors and theme of Malibu Barbie. I had a vision of my four year old daughter in her pink swimsuit, a disco ball and sunnies by the pool. My very own Barbie girl. I grabbed these three items and went to work in Adobe Photoshop to bring my vision to life. A little bit of real life, some fantasy and a whole Summer vibe.

Beautiful sunset 

Back to school for the kiddos! After some great "Fun in the Sun", it's time to get back to locked in :)

Just a 3 hour hop, skip and a jump to one of my favourite sunsets of the year on the West Coast of Canada

A street stranger portrait of Tanya & Eoin, shot in Dublin with a Rolleiflex T and Kodak Portra 160VC expired in 2001, rated at ISO 80.

Shooting portraits of strangers I meet on the street is something I really enjoy, and I get to meet some great people. 

Un moment où tout s’arrête autour d’elle.

il ne reste que la lumière et la musique qui l’enveloppe un instant magique.

The moon illuminates the world. I hope everyone has a bright heart like the moon.

Series of fortunate events 🫶🏼

I was sunbathing at the beach when suddenly these paragliders landed just a few meters away without ever touching a single person, not even with their wing! Quite impressive 😊

Inspired by Finnish design to wear my funkiest (but still unwrinkled) outfit, I visited my onetime city on a glorious sunny day by the Gulf of Finland.

Hats off to you, Helsinki! You've got the IT factor!

After popping a bottle of Champagne, the couple enjoyed a nice walk at their backyard and the golden hour sunlight just made this moment even magical and surreal. 

My grandson loves his new kitty and gives it sticky fingered hugs. 

Life's and adventure, but it's even more special when your best friend tags along.

Summertime in the Sierra 

Our Airedale Terrier, Ruthie Bader, loves everyone in the family but she knows our daughter, Eve, gives the best belly rubs. I took this photo just before Eve headed back to grad school… And now I am trying to fill her role as Ruth’s best friend. 

Follow your dream 🩷

Paperwater and I collaborated for a Miami Music Week event in Miami Beach and as the party was starting, Eddy began to play some dope tunes with a friend by his side. They looked so cool and in to what they were doing that I had to capture the moment on Portra800 35mm film.

My Black-Eyed Susans always start to take over my garden during this time of the year, so we had a little fun with them.

Lost together in time, lost in love. Forever together.

Underwater shot with disposable Kodak waterproof in Pserimos Island, Greece 

Shot on Portra 400 with a Mamiya 645 in march 2023. This was my very first time shooting film and also first time scanning negatives at home. My partner was kind enough to accept modeling for me, so we decided to have a walk through our neighborhood and the golden hour magic did the rest. Portra gave me those gorgeous golden skin tones that everybody loves.

#KodakMoments 

The moment you finish your holiday book and get ready for the drinks with friends 

My oldest daughter of three started Ukulele lessons and is loving it! She has memorized the first song that she learned (Happy Birthday)! I am hoping that she sticks with it over the next few years!

A quick moment on a hot day, the green waters of Boston Harbor slapping lazily against the embankment rocks. The sun shimmers on the calm surface; she is at peace.

My brother and I decided to take a spontaneous sunset hike this summer. On short time, we moved fast to reach the summit.

During this hike, the light began to filter through the woods. I was carrying my Canon Ae-1 and had to capture the moment (No pun intended!). I was fortunate to get this photo while using one of my favorite Kodak films. 

A beautiful summer afternoon in Washington state. Good vibes, great people and bubbles in the air. You can’t ask for more. 

Harun loves it when I take photos of him. He loves modeling in front of the camera. I chose this photo for whiskers Wednesday, because it shows off his amazing whiskers. 

It was in Le Touquet, northern France. Close to the beach, I saw this old carrousel with many families and kids around. I'm always looking for vintage images so I needed to get closer and create !
I saw this little girl having fun, she was so cute. I waited many carrousel rides to get "The Moment".
I'm very happy with the result and the emotion coming from the image !

Her mom got a fan and she wanted to use it before her mom take it to her office. So she asked "Do you want to do photoshoot?". She enjoyed a new fan a little bit and her mom got some pictures. That was a win win situation.
 

We live in the Arctic and we were on a boat in front of a massive glacier. My son always takes my camera to photograph all the beautiful nature around us. It sometimes makes me a bit nervous to see him walking around with my (professional) camera as if it is a toy. 😬😅

That was a great experience and view with 360° views of the city from 219.5 metres above Downtown Dubai.

初夏のある日、猫ちゃんたちが

たくさんいる島へ…

すごく暑い日でしたが

たくさんの猫ちゃんたちに癒やされました。

These people - where do I even start? My bestie girls, my hubby, our guy gang. These people are OUR people and I’m just so grateful that we have a special group of people, especially on our wedding day, to surround us with love and make the most magical memories with us. Our circle is small but oh so mighty. Friends are the family you choose. 🤍🥂💍

Being intentional about EVERYTHING because I deserve it. I deserve this happiness, this peace, and this overflow.
 

Visiting Miami to attend a friends wedding with my partner. 

My fiancée and I were taking pictures in front of a church in a small village, Undredal, at the base of a fjord in Norway. There was something “pristine” about the colors and setting that felt right for us to take some engagement style pictures. 

Double stacking hammocks, but no complaints, shot on Kodak TriX 

After a day filled with misty autumn light and wide yellow fields, I found myself standing up here in midst of the bluest hour of the day. I used to have a hard time letting days go, always craving more. More time, more light, more of this moment. But nowadays, I find a strange comfort in fleeting moments, in days fading away, though, while immersing myself in them, my heart is never quiet . 

Raph is a great colleague who quickly became a great friend ! We went fishing for a weekend, together with another good friend ! Raph also takes pictures and we like to pose for each other without taking ourselves to seriously and this field was the perfect background !

One summer‘s day in Japan. It’s another hot day today, but she is ready to enjoy this summer with passion and the lovely smile.

This is a candid photo wherein father and daughter were having quality time together watching funny videos on mobile.

While walking around the state fair, I happened to catch this wholesome moment between father and daughter. She was completely mesmerized by the spinning ride and soon begged her dad to let her go next.

My daughters first day at primary school.
Walking hand in hand with daddy en route. 

we had just arrived at the top of a mountain in Norwegia where the view was magnificent when it started to rain. there was a blue cabin in which we took shelter. when the sun reappeared, a rainbow formed in the middle of the mountains and made the moment even more magical than it was

My very first double exposure. Apparently there is trick to have both background on the same frame however despite my best efforts I must have done something wrong as you can see the black line between two frames. Nevertheless I am super pleased with the results and I would say is worthy to call it a Kodak Moment.

Walking to the office after a meeting and bam: my present of the day. Her hair is actually pink and then black at the ends.

It's Friday the 13th, and the spookiest part so far is that my mom tried to match with me. In public! 

Taken at The Seaport in NYC - looking towards the Brooklyn Bridge. Captured on 35mm TMAX400 with an OLYMPUS OM2n.

Jumping in the bounce house, savoring pizza, taking a swing at the piñata, and finally, cupcakes galore – that's a wrap of a fantastic, yet exhausting, backyard birthday party!
