Just some random photos from a roll of film that got developed along with the wedding film. All my wedding photos were on film, because at the time I thought my fuji was broken. It made the week much simpler, photographically. As it turns out, a softrelease fixed the fuji, so I’m still shooting with it. I had forgotten how good film looked, with no fucking around with filters and contrast masking and shit. Blacks are black, whites are white. The tonality I have to work for in digital is just there already. I suppose my recent return to B&W was presaged by this work; it was definitely influenced by it. I have to thank “Hornbeck”:http://johnhornbeck.com/, too, because seeing his work on instagram and FB his work was a kick in the ass, a reminder that black and white could be great, and color was just a pretension. I realized I needed to stop fucking around. I need to make pictures. <div class=”center”> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/first_and_last_chance/520/0001.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/first_and_last_chance/520/0002.jpg’ /> <img src=’https://images.matt.pictures/first_and_last_chance/520/0003.jpg’ /> </div>
