Do you ever feel so blessed that you think you might wake up and realize that your life is a dream? That is how I am feeling when I see these images from our family vacation. Really, this was our first “traveling” vacation with the kids and it was a huge success. We’ve taken short trips to the grandparents or over to Carmel, but nothing that ever required a plane ride. I wont’ say where we went, I will let the pictures speak for themselves. One very exciting (at least for me) aspect of our family vacation was that I made the decision to document our trip using film. Film, you say, “Whaat?”. Yes. I said film. For those of you who didn’t get the memo, Film is Not Dead! I carefully packed up my medium format camera and several rolls of Fuji 400H, Kodak Portra 400, and Kodak Portra 800 and come what may in the end captured our time together. I am impatiently waiting for the scans of the developed film to trickle in from Richard Photo Lab. There are squeals of delight when I open the scans and get to relive our family time together. Now I am sharing them with you, One Roll At A Time.
Interested in knowning more about how you can too shoot film, check out the blog of Jonathan Canlas, and his newly released book Film is Not Dead. It doesn’t disappoint!
I am just loving all your film work, the color is gorgeous

I’m a ‘throw the iPhone in a pocket’ kind of girl for vacations… I admire you for toting the medium-format on vacation and really doing amazing things! Love these Jayme and can’t wait to see more as you get rolls delivered

These are wonderful Jayme, your portraits are fantastic, but wow at even capturing a turtle on film.
