can you tell which images were shot with a lens over 100 years old? have you seen Poor Things yet?

the most vibrant summer vineyard wedding day for mattie & jonah.

💚 🍷 🍇

i’m pretty sure the more you embrace the uncertainty of afternoon summer storms in western north carolina the more it decides to give you the perfect openings when you need it most and the richest color payoffs you couldn’t even possibly imagine!

water season. weddings on the water 🩵

maybe i’ll start shootings in jpg again. my editing is so minimal these days. when did that happen? maybe when we all started shooting film again? have to just get it so right in camera.

maybe this is the way.
