I had some serious technical difficulties, my digital camera was very tired from a wedding days before. I brought several film cameras to play with, but when my digital didn’t want to cooperate, I was forced to use my back ups. I recently purchased a Mamiya RB67 for a great deal on craigslist, so untested and with film who knows how old, this became my key camera. Here are my favorite shots.

I think this one is the most like them.

It was nice to do a shoot all in film, I have not done this since college. It forced me to think a lot more using an entirely mechanical camera. You think about every shot before you take it, with a 6×7 format you only get 10 shots per roll of film. I sure love film. I plan on using this camera more in the future with more success.
