Shoot One

Today I met up with a photography student called Becki who was my model...She kindly volunteered to be a homeless person for the shoot. She did extremely well and helped by putting some makeup on and messing her hands up in the mud to make her hands seem more used etc. I used Ilford HP5 400ISO Black and White 120 Film throughout the shoot along with Fujifilm Instant film so I could see if the exposure was correct or not !

It was quite interesting using medium format as my only source as camera as I have never used it before in my life !!! Took a few minutes to change the film over and make sure the exposure/shutterspeed corresponded to the light meter but they are minor problems that come with using new equipment.

A few of the photos will be posted soon when i have developed the negatives and scanned them in. My plan for tomorrow (Tuesday 3rd March) is to develop Negatives and work in darkroom for 3 hours to try and get a few photographs printed. Hopefully I will be able to make the photographs contrasty and moody and not forgetting emotional !!
