Salem Portrait Photographer | Haunting Film Shot.

I captured this beautiful little girl on film recently. 

Her instructions were "Stand here and do whatever you want. Smile, not smile, whatever you want." and she gave me this stunning expression.

It was a pleasure working with the beautiful Miss Porshe. 

We worked together on styling this session and I love how it turned out.

Oh, are you wondering why it looks so beautiful and sunny while there are blizzards around the country? That is because this is from early fall and I'm just now getting around to blogging it. I'm kind of a slacker when it comes to blogging, in case you haven't noticed. 

This session was a combination of digital and film, including 

multiple film cameras and formats. 

Just a few "artsy" shots, taken with one of my vintage cameras...

Retro Rewind: Yashica Mat-124g | Salem Film Photographer

Welcome to Retro Rewind!

What is Retro Rewind, you ask?

Retro Rewind is a blog series, put on by a select group 

of photographers. Each month we will post about our experiments with 

antique, vintage, and retro cameras and/or old film. The interpretation 

of the project is very liberal and each member of the group will 

likely have very different results. 

Each member will include a link to another member's blog at the end of their post. By clicking on each link, you will eventually make a complete circle!

I, personally, have a relatively large collection of old cameras (25-30). Some are only a couple of decades old, while 

others are closer to a century old. 

I'm starting the project out with a camera that is currently in my camera bag and used on sessions. I'm still learning how to use it and have a ways to go, but I have to say that so far I love this camera! 

Brand: Yashica

Model: Mat-124 G

Film type: 120 (medium format)

Years of Production: (produced from 1970-1986)

Film Used for this blog post: Kodak t-max 400

Here is a photo of the camera, taken with my DSLR.

   I added a some filters to the b&w film image on this one (in photoshop).

This one has some texture added to it. 

Here is what the camera looks like when it is in use. 

It is a twin-lens reflect and the view finder is on top of the camera, so you look down into it. These were all taken with my iPhone.
