Loli Smokes… On Film

Well, She doesn’t really smoke that much, but she did for this little shoot. I’m not much of a fan of smoke itself, but I love the way it looks on film. When I decided to go to Prague a few weeks ago, I figured I should shoot something while I was there, so I looked for a model and made it happen. I found Loli who was kind enough to stay a couple extra days to shoot. I’ve been pushing myself to shoot film for my personal work these days because it is a different approach and a different feel. The more I shoot, the more I realize how much more analog it really is, and I love it. Some people may think it’s a fad to shoot film, but I don’t think so. Maybe our world has become so digital we are reverting to the roots. I wanted to do something classic black and white because a city it fits so well in Prague. I used my Contax G2 with Kodak T-Max 400 and a couple rolls of Kodak 400NC.

Just worked with Katie Noble (her interview here) again a couple weeks ago. My boy Ja Tecson shot this fun little behind the scenes of the shoot out in Venice. Below are the tears from the mag.
