Portraits

I've discovered a new love.

I learned the past few weeks that I love taking portaits and just photographing people in general. I'm really happy with the way this project turned out and it felt really good when my parents wanted to frame the ones of my siblings right away.

As much as I complain about working with film and all the time and energy it requires, I wouldn't trade the outcome for anything. This batch of 6 prints took approximately 4 hours in the dark room between processing film, enlarging, and printing. I'm still considering becoming a photography major too...we'll see how things go I guess!
