Here is a series I shot with my lovely and (sold) Deardorff 4x5, shot on Polaroid type 55 film (alas no more) contact printed. I think it was Ilford FB Multigrade
My name is Richard Israel and I am a photographer who lives in Charlotte, NC with my beautiful wife Beth and our three amazing daughters, Ferris 11, Sophia 8 and Priscilla 4. I love life, I love photography.
I had been shooting digitally for nearly 8 years and recently fell back in love with film, so much so that I'm now shooting a large percentage of my weddings and portraits with film.
This blog is not a film versus digital debate as both have a place in my work flow but to hopefully inspire photographers to give film a try.
good hell that first and third shot is freaking amazing. your work is killer man!
ReplyDeletethat first portrait subject looks exactly like the actor Robert Conrad ("Wild Wild West" and other 60's-80's TV shows.)
ReplyDeleteBet you wish you hadn't sold the Deardorff.
I absolutely love this
