Instead of sending out Holiday cards with pictures of my own family…I sent my friends and family photos of themselves.
Photos I took of them with one of my medium format film cameras…
And have been hiding all year…
Just so I could send them as holiday cards.
These are a few of my favorites…
It was hard for me to keep them hidden.
So it is a relief to finally let them out in the world,
Now that the holidays are over and the cards have been sent.
But also it is helpful for me to share them all at once,
Because people ask me all the time what are the differences between film and digital.
I always have a hard time trying to describe the differences in an email.
So I decided I needed more blog posts that only show examples of film.
Now when people ask what film is like…
I can send them to this blog post…
And they can see that film creates the kind of photos you want to save all year just to give as presents.
(This is also helpful so my friends and family can see that they really should hang out with me at least one time a year 🙂 )
What a great idea Paige! THanks for sharing 😉
LOVE this….and you!
