on the way to vegas

Horizon | Dusk or Dawn

We made a quick trip to Vegas this weekend. I pulled over about twenty miles outside of the city when I saw this amazing setting. When you think Nevada this is not the picture that come to mind, and what struck me as I stood outside the car, traffic screaming by at a [...]

Averi and Pearce

Averi and Pearce are awesome. Fuji 100c is also awesome. Enough said.

Fuji 3000b is the most awesome though, especially when plopped into this camera. Thanks to this guy for pointing me to that camera. If you like sun, mad photo knowledge and being inspired, there may still be a few open [...]

New York City | Polaroid SX70

We drove into the city at 6am ready to explore and adventure! Apparently, city folk don’t get up that early. So we parked in Soho and took a nap in the rain. Tourists!

Infectious Joy

Every moment of every day we are spreading something. Stress. Worry. Negativity. Hope. Joy. Encouragement. Almost four years ago (I can’t believe it) Elsie arrived in our lives with a thunderclap. (Click here to see a video of her first five days.)
From that moment on, Elsie has brought [...]

Los Angeles Under Water

I grabbed my Hasselblad and some 100b fuji instant and headed out as the sun set. I can’t remember the last time it rained this much in Los Angeles, it almost feels like we’re in another city. This was my favorite, it looks like the clouds are dancing over the city.

Porsche | Meet Polaroid

They don’t make them like they used to.
I am totally drawn to older cars. I saw this one parked a few blocks from my house and had to race home to pick up my polaroid camera. Since I’m not an aficionado, I could not tell you much about this car [...]

The Dawson Kids | Polaroids

From our recent trip to Arrowhead, sunny and green one day, white as snow the next. These kids are just gorgeous, and so sweet.

Love fuji’s color instant film but the 3000b is insane.  I was shooting these in such low light at 4.0 and could still get crisp images.  I can’t wait to shoot [...]

santa barbara

We took a quick trip up to Santa Barbara yesterday, of course the polaroid came with me. With the craziness of holidays we felt we hadn’t actually seen the kids as they’d been holed up with their cousins, so in what is now officially a tradition we drove up the coast, rented a six [...]

Lev Rukhin

I met Lev when I was in high school, he is bar none the craziest and most talented person I know, with a heart of pure gold. He was born in the USSR and emigrated to Texas, and both locales live large in his persona. Everyone that knows him has at least one [...]
