|Leaning Cathedral| built in 1880 by French Architect Jules Bourard. Every brick of this relic was imported from Marseille, France. Despite the leaning history, the Notre Dame Cathedral is considered one of the finest works of the 19th century. • • • * Shot on Pentax KM with Agfa APX 400 BW 35mm* https://www.instagram.com/p/Bproh7rHlKf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r20vbmbiqvvn

|childlike| Lived vicariously through my new buddy Finn this past weekend. Despite his lack of English, he pointed to a solar powered helicopter that was displayed near @freewill.leather table, also seen in his hand. We were there to support an often underfunded .org in Vietnam as well as globally. 50% of our profits went towards HOW (Helping Orphans Worldwide) which is committed to providing hope, health, and education to underprivileged children and families in need. As with Finn and all children, they are reminders that you are never too old to live childlike. (at Vietnam) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpg-HDwH2Zm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1sjcq26zv5bgz

|The Still Life| It’s been almost 15 years since I developed my first film roll in my favorite class, film photography with Ms. Gross. (@snailgrrl) Every week a new theme would be assigned to us and from memory I believe one of the themes was ‘Lines’. My best friend, @ian_m_will and I loved cars. Naturally we gravitated towards muscle cars and classics. Ian had presented a stunning shot of a 76 Eldorado hood ornament. (Google may help paint the picture) I presented a photo of a tail light; a sharp and very contrasted black and white. It was our best friend @paulie_bacon_fingers 97’ Black on Black SS Camaro, the last year of the LT1 engine. If there was an award for best car in High School, Paul would have easily won. Full circle, this film photo of my girlfriend Jany, reminds me of what I learned back then and with film photography, it’s a skill that requires patience and persistence to get the shot that will last years later. • • • • • #35mmbook #35mm #filmisnotdead #fromthearchive #fujifilm #filmphotographic #istillshootfilm #back2thebase #analoguecollective #analoguevibe #ishootfilm #ilovefilm #filmneverdies #keepfilmalive #filmcommunity #buyfilmnotmegapixels #staybrokeshootfilm #believeinfilm #filmphoto #cinestill #portraitsociety #peoplescreatives #portraitstream #endlessfaces #portrait #aovportraits #portraits_universe #featurepalette #bleachmyfilm #life_portraits (at Vietnam) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bov_ILqggCu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wpnckazq1ahy

|It’s not what you give, it’s how you give| in Vietnamese that translates to “của cho không bằng cách cho”.

No...I’m not back in the states. I’m just going through some old photos I overlooked. Back when I was just starting out, I would often shoot with vivid profile settings and thought the over saturated pictures were all the rave. Little did I know then, white balance is crucial in all digital photography. Flattening your image so to speak will allow more room to modify in post (if your heart desires). I’ve been going off of memory with the Chicago series on what the “actual” colors were that day or night. I’m starting to realize maybe my back up needs to be film, especially in Vietnam or anywhere else for that matter. Film is true and provides way more dynamic range where as digital fails to provide that real in the moment feel. I started on film and I believe all budding photographers should as well. My buddy @thanh.tin recently let me borrow his Olympus OM-10 and it’s got me back in my creative mode. If you’re looking for quality film cameras, Vietnam is where you’ll find these relics. Also, check out @iamcraigsteven film photography. 🤙🏼 • • • • • #sonyalpha #memories #photooftheday #instagood #artofchi #citykillerz #ourvisualvibes #chicagoepic #usaprimeshot #eyeinthechi #insta_chicago #killaframez #citygrammers #likechicago #chicagogram #citygrammers #urbanromantix #moodygrams #loaded_lenses #mychicagopix #chicagogrammers #chicago #onlinechicago #theimaged (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BogyGDrgeXr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=f9a6331p0i8j

|The Robey: Sep 2017| One of my favorite views of the skyline. A bit of a mystery to get to, this rooftop escape is my go to recommendation for anyone looking for a classic cocktail list and some perspective. • • • • • #sonyalpha #memories #photooftheday #instagood #artofchi #citykillerz #ourvisualvibes #chicagoepic #usaprimeshot #eyeinthechi #insta_chicago #killaframez #citygrammers #likechicago #chicagogram #citygrammers #urbanromantix #tbt #loaded_lenses #mychicagopix #chicagogrammers #chicago #onlinechicago #theimaged (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BogkfIwA0rm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ayjhurtgzmqm

|Wacker| Yes...I’ve been missing a few things about this great city. Long runs along the lake path, happy hours with a few good friends, unmatched sunrises and sunsets, LP farmers market, divvy bikes, Money Gun Bar, Old Town Ale House w/my buddy Griff followed up with chili and a full slab of ribs at Twin Anchors. Saturday and Sunday mornings @soulcycle w/ @konnichiwaya (best workout). Most importantly, I’m missing my family, mom, dad, @jo1119 @sarahematteson @lkjackson2 @sethro00 @opmatteson @iknowlarry @lmbusboom @codakswift @tiffanyqueen09 @tjqueen97 @briannalqueen @kobeonem and my friends.
