There’s a Baby A-Comin’! {for Annie & Jeremy}

May 13, 2012 8:00 am ⋅ 1 Comment ⋅

Well actually, Baby Eli arrived last week, so I decided it would be a good time to post the maternity session I did with his parents! Not to mention it’s Mother’s Day, and this is Annie’s first year as a Mommy!

I love Annie and Jeremy so much. I’ve known them for nearly ten years (wow!), I sang at their wedding, and I felt so honored that they asked me to do some photos of them a few weeks before their little one was due to arrive.

I looooooved this! Jeremy’s grandfather was a rodeo man, and they got the baby some little bitty cowboy boots to pay homage to him! So sweet.

Congratulations to Annie and Jeremy on the arrival of Eli, and a very Happy First Mother’s Day to Annie!

One pack of Impossible Project PX 70 film = 8 images
8 images divided by two SX-70 cameras = 4 images each

I happily picked up more NIGO edition PX 70 Color Shade from The Impossible Project when they restocked this {limited edition} film. Being limited in availability, I wanted to make sure each exposure counted! I put the pack of film into my newer-to-me, original model Polaroid SX-70 camera. After a coupla shots, I discovered that this camera was over-exposing the photos, which produced a more “dreamy” effect. Not that there’s anything wrong with that…

 

I decided after the first four exposures that I wanted to try the rest of the film cartridge in my SX-70 Sonar model, since I’m more familiar with its exposure tendencies.  So I did a little magic trick and *alakazam* the remaining NIGO film was in the Sonar SX-70!

I enjoy the differing results from the two different cameras. How about you?

I’m so excited, y’all! I had a bridal portrait session with a beautiful young woman named Hope over the weekend. I took a few different cameras along with me to this photo shoot, including my most recent acquisition, the Polaroid Sun 660.  Since posting photos of Hope in her wedding dress would warrant a “spoiler alert” for her groom-to-be, I shan’t share the results of that session until after the wedding (I’m shooting that too! Yay!) All I can show you for the time being is this photo I took Sunday, on the grounds where the wedding will take place in a couple of weeks. I’m super happy with the results of the aforementioned bridal photos of Hope and can’t wait til I can post ’em up here!
