New Camera Means More Me…Sorry
In the past few months I have become internet friends with a great guy living in South Korea. His name is Travis Lee Street and he also shoots a lot of Polaroid and has an awesome mustache. Not only that, he’s a super nice guy and I guess I complained to him in too many emails that the Spectra I’ve been using has been crapping out on me in various ways. So the next thing I know is that I’m getting a “new” Polaroid Spectra in the mail courtesy of Mr. Street. What a guy!
I didn’t have the best model in the world to work with…or any in fact, so I used myself. In the shot above, I also used a separate light to fill in some of the back. I obviously need to work on the dynamic qualities of my self-portraits!
The one below with Jarvis looks a little yellow for some reason…maybe the film was sitting out in the heat too long. I’m also trying to give the camera a sultry look…the one that Josh Sisk gives cameras when he eye fucks them…but I can’t do it right. Oh, I should mention that Josh also gave me an old Spectra last year..and that one shit the bed already, but it was great while it lasted.
Jarvis looks so cute in this photo…a rare shot of us together. We noticed tonight that one of his little bottom teeth is about to fall out :( it’s the one right in the center, a little higher than all the rest.
