Life is imperfect. Life is messy. In a photograph, I can keep or leave out exactly what I want. Maybe it’s just a futile way to exert some control over life but that’s true of so many things we humans do. . . . #analogboston #bostononfilm #bostonfilmphotography #northendboston #shootfilmunder1000 #abstractarchitecture #minimalarchitecture #kodakektachrome #minoltax500 #shootfilm #35mmphotography #filmwieldingfemale #FILMWAVE #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #femalephotographer #architecturephotography #beautifulsky (at North End, Boston) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1tjRnrnxkX/?igshid=7jnhlfxuj3yi

Some of my favorite shots are found when I just let myself get lost somewhere. . . .

Here’s the second image from my new series combining analog photography and pop art graphic design elements. I want to say that given the current of things I’m not exactly feeling proud to be an American right now. That being said, this image wouldn’t be the same without the flag so I kept it in. Let it be a symbol for what our flag SHOULD stand for: a land of freedom and opportunity FOR. ALL.

On a more lighthearted note, the stress of fighting against social media’s image compression is going to take years off my life 😬 Hopefully this time it’ll finally work. I’ve uploaded and deleted this one about 6 times trying to get the sky to stop banding and artifacting from compression. Ended up adding extra grain to the sky. Fingers crossed 🤞

This is the first of a new series I’m working on combining pop art graphic design and analog photography. I’m super excited about how it’s coming along so far. Let me know what you think! ✨✨✨ . . .

I’ve made this same commute home for years now but it never gets old. The Boston waterfront is absolutely gorgeous. This one was shot on my Minolta X-570 on Kodak Ektar 100 over the winter.
