when Sofia & Angie met Lincoln

Fall of 2001

Beginning Black & White Photography Class

1st assignment with my manual camera

I'm trying to work my camera with notes on what means what - the needle should be in the middle for perfect exposure - forgot about that during the shoot!

2 beautiful friends willing to be my models and so patient as I prepared my camera. they helped me many times, offering helpful advice such as "umm, yeah, you're covering the lens" oh oops minor thing :)

rain didn't help my situation but it being my last day to shoot left me with
no choice. many of the pics were taken over exposed but i found a few that made it and here they are.

this is my favorite

I love these pictures!! It has been so long since I have seen them. It takes me back to that cold & rainy day down by the Chicago River. I can't speak for Sofia, but I tried so hard not to be the diva model and throw a tantrum because of the weather.

But the pictures turned out great.

Love the photos! I think black & whites have a more poetic look to them.

yes I agree pezgirl, i actually scanned the film and i did try working on the bag because it is distracting but i'm still trying to get familiar with photoshop. thanks :)
