Holga project update

I picked up the first two rolls of film from my Holga project this weekend and I'm sorry to say they were awful. I know what your thinking, this girl has a BA in professional photography and expects me to hire her to photograph my wedding. Yes I do and yes I do. I would never use a camera or technique I was unsure of when shooting your wedding. Shooting with my Holga has been all about fun. It has no shutter or aperture control and no flash. All you can do is point and click. I tried to push the poor little things to far by using it at night. The good news, I've learned a few things about shooting with my Holga such as only shoot with it in bright light. I love to learn new things which is part of why this project is so much fun. Hopefully my next roll will be better.

While I did not get any images worth posting from this past weeks Holga rolls, Dustin took this really cool photo of me with our Canon. I hope you like it.

Don't forget, Pacific Islands Media gift certificates are available all year and make an excellent gift for any occasion.
