PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHS SHOT ON FILM
I would like to show you some photos that were taken on black and white film. They are film portrait photographs, portraits of Álvaro, son of my good friends Maribel and Edu.
For me they reflect the charm of a more traditional way of taking photographs, one which draws on my experience of using light meters, choosing shutter speeds and lenses etc . This approach gives me more creative satisfaction and in a sense connects me more to what is the true art of photography.
Now and then I just like to wander the streets and try and capture something using art of a documentary photographer, applying those skills learned from this traditional analogue approach … I hope you enjoy them too.
Thanks Alvaro!
Stuff used: Medium format camera Yashica Mat, film Ilford FP4 Plus 125 and Kodak D-76 developer.
