KODAK MOMENT of the Day

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.

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.

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 ❤️
