Portraiture

Sasha, originally uploaded by meeklund.

I asked my roommate and her friend to sit for some portraits and I think they turned out pretty well..

Check out my flickr to see more.

New and Old

It's been almost 5 months since my last post... For some reason I cannot seem to keep this thing up to date. Since it has been quite a while since my last post I thought I would show some of my current works in progress.

Over the summer, I was (by some stroke of luck) able to acquire a free 4x5 camera. Amazingly, it was in decent shape and it arrived just in time for me to use it in a view camera class I am currently taking at Pittsburgh Filmmakers.

I absolutely love shooting in with this camera. I like it so much, not only did I use it for my view camera class but I also shot with it for my color photography class.

Here are a few of images I was able capture with it:

Signs- Photo 2 final project

For my final project in my black and white photo 2 class i decided to choose signs as my concentration.

Sorry, a lot of these prints are just the proof prints and aren't very good because the final ones are still drying... I will replace them when i have time, but sorry until then you'll just have to put of with these.

All photos were shot on Fujifilm Neopan 400 Profession film with a Holga.

As always, feedback and advice is much appreciated!

Thanks,
Mary



These first 3 are not part of the project but i felt like sticking them in there:





I need to chose 10 of these to show in my final project, then narrow it down to the 5 top:
(again, sorry about the bad prints)

(This seemed like a good idea at the time, but I'm not sure I like it and could'nt get a good print so it probably wont be in the final)

(Not sure if I'm going to include this one)

(not using this one)

(Not using this one either)

Holga Photos

These are very first photos I got successful negatives with using a medium format/holga camera. There not the greatest in the world, but I hope that as I get used to using the camera and don't make any silly mistakes in developing the film then the future pictures i post will hopefully look much better...

I would also like to note that i actually had to burn in parts of both these prints but when i scanned them into the computer my scanner kind of washed them out/increased the contrast but the prints actually look better on paper then they do here..
