I just got my first roll of film developed in quarantine. I have been staying sane by running all over Golden Gate Park, reading mountains of books, and being one of the few people still wandering around the city. These are some scenes from living life a little slower and staying six feet apart.

This is a role of film I recently got developed from the past few weeks. It's always pretty crazy how time can just fly right on by, that time is all relative. You can put your hand over a fire for a minute and have it feel like an hour. You can sit next to a pretty girl for an hour and have it feel like a minute. That's relativity.
What I hope to do every time I try and take a picture on film, is to slow time down and really take in everything around me. Every day I have my attention pulled in a multitude of different directions, each one yearning for my immediate and undivided attention. Sometimes it's so relaxing and refreshing to slow everything down, take in everything that's around me and just pay attention. To hear the crisp ocean breeze whirling through the city, to notice how the sun is peaking through the top of a canopy, or to see other hidden gems around the city.
2018.07.07 - A Walk Through Castro
I dropped off a roll of film today at Photoworks SF in Castro, then I meandered around the neighborhood and got lost down a few alleyways and one way streets. The Castro has so much beautiful and unique architecture mixed with a bountiful amount of palm trees. If anyone knows me, they know I love me some palm trees.
I also came across On a Hazy Morning this week, while I was looking through different photography websites, both a great way to learn and waste mountains of time. They are a pretty rad couple that live in the Netherlands and are a serious creative team. I really liked how they used different colors, hues and shadows in their photos. So I went out today to try to see if I could get a similar look and feel not only in the photos, but also in the editing as well.
