on film


While these were not taken by me but the boyfriend, I couldn't help but share them and since I'm in some it counts right? He has so many film cameras I can't tell you exactly which one took all of these, but it's all film taken somewhere all around Virginia.  This makes me think I should probably get my rolls developed too...


Love Always,

autumn color


More Minolta pictures! Yes, I hadn't gotten film developed in a while, so it kinda built up...These were taken in the autumn when the leaves were beginning to change color and fall off the trees; the weather was starting to turn cold.  As a break from our usual Sunday routine of doing homework all day, my boyfriend and I decide to take our cameras and capture some of the fall color around campus.  We discovered some new things along the way too, like this billion year old church steeple from England tucked away in a forgotten garden...


Love Always,

old american provisions


I finally got the film I used at the beach developed! These pictures were also taken with my Minolta camera while I was in Southport, North Carolina in July. Oh how I miss the warm sand, the smell of the ocean, and the feeling of reading a good book while your back gets burned by the sun and not caring. I sure do miss the carefree feeling of summer...


Love Always,

mistakes


These are some of the first pictures I took using my Minolta SRT-200.  I took them while I was in North Carolina over the summer visiting my aunt and hanging out with my boyfriend.  They are definitely not the best pictures I've ever taken.  Many are out of focus. One is over exposed so there's a weird red spot on top. I'm making a not-so-pleasant face in another.  But, I think the beauty of the pictures lay in their imperfection, not in how well they were taken.  We learn from mistakes, but it's always nice to make something beautiful through those mistakes. 


Love Always,
