Sometimes I don’t get around to processing some of my film until weeks or months after shooting it and sometimes I don’t label what’s on my film so I have no idea what’s on it until I hang it up to dry after processing it. That’s what happened with these shots that are from a lunch time photo shoot I had with Imogen just over 3 months ago! It’s the little surprises like this that make using film so fun. I really like the contrast in these shots which I think is from a film/developer combo that I haven’t explored much before (TMAX and Xtol). I’ll do some more testing with this.
[Tech info:] Nikon FM2, 50mm/1.4D loaded with Kodak TMAX 400 (expired), processed in Kodak Xtol 1+1 for 9:15.
Love the contrast, yet the light in these photos is just fantastic. Well done!
Thanks very much 🙂
I really like the top row of photos. Excellent work. The expressions, light, and repeated textures brought out by the black and white film are all fantastic.
