More Film with Hannah Garrett

Let’s talk Film. Overall I have become a lot more comfortable shooting on film, trying out different brands and qualities. This was also my second model shoot using film and this Time Hannah and I decided to give it a go outdoors. Overall I am very pleased with my progress. I think my biggest obstacle at the moment would be slowing down and truly planning out each shot to make sure I am getting the correct lighting angle, Setting up my tripod if I have to bring the shutter down. I am still so used to the digital age of shooting 4 shots, one of them will work I can composite 2 of them together if need be, etc. whereas now it really is to make the shot work or waste an entire shot.


One thing to note is this was the last roll I had photographed on my GAF 35mm and have since bought myself a Nikon f2 a dream camera of mine. I have put around 9 rolls through it however I still have yet to develop and process them as I am writing this so fingers crossed.

For now, I am content with my skill level and progress and will continue to practice over the following months. My goal is to truly be confident with my abilities by 2024 and start trying my hand at doing full series on film.
