An artist presents the last of his Polaroid film from his depleting Polaroid film stash.
I really love all of these Polaroids. It is a pleasure to chip away at your remaining stash of film when they turn out like this and when documenting something of importance…and Wham City rocks. There will be two or three more of these Wham City portraits to come, but still I have to [...]
Here are some more great one-on-one portraits from a few more Wham City kids. Since I’m being so stingy with my film and my days of extravagance are over, I told everyone that I was only taking one exposure for each person and thankfully they all kept their eyes open. There were a [...]
