France on film

This past summer my mother and I set off to Europe so she could climb the Mont Saint-Michel. A life long dream of hers to see it in person and for me a first time trip to France.

I packed up over 50 rolls of film. 35mm and 120mm formats. 3 film cameras and one digital camera.

Film cameras: Leica M3, Hasselblad Xpan, Fuji gws690ii and Leica M10.

Flying through the airport was easy with my film. I managed to get TSA to hand check all of the film and nothing had to go through any x-ray machines.

In the end I shot just over 39 rolls of film costing close to $900 in film processing.

This trip was a once in a life time experience. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to photograph France on film.

The Captain

The Captain | Nikon Z7 My father Sverre worked as a Tug Boat captain for over 40 years. Here is a short Documentary about his life on the water. Now at the age of 86, my dad talks about a couple of scary experiences and challenges throughout his career. Sverre first came to North America in the 1950s, on a ship into Ellis Island in New York. Eventually, he made his way west to Vancouver Island Canada to become a logger. After 3 years of logging, where he cut down a Red Cedar that was carved into one of the worlds largest totem poles and then given as a gift to the Queen of England, Sverre then applied to become a Tug Boat Mate. A job that was only supposed to last for 3 days ended up lasting for over 40 years. Film shot on: Nikon Z7 Sigma 85mm f1.4 art Sony a6500 Sigma 35mm f1.4 art

Fishing Memories

Fishing Memories Short Film

I had this idea kicking around in my head for a while. How do I tell the story of my very earliest memory in my life? The crazy thing is this memory is of Ice Fishing in Norway with my Father.

So here is my attempt to piece it together. The memory has never left and fishing seems to have stuck with me through out my life.

Lexi & Max Wedding | Sony a6500

I have been trying to practice more at shooting film. Slow cinematic shots in 120p. This Sony Camera a6500 along with the Sigma 30mm f1.4 seem to be the perfect match.

In between photographing still imagery of Lexi and Max's big day, I kept the Sony close by in hopes to get some cinematic shots. Here are the results of that wonderful summer evening.
