I had the (exhausting and exciting) privilege of shooting another event for the Gilletts last week, only this time there were about ten times as many of them! This last group shot only includes the immediate family of mom and pop gillett–their 9 children and all their children. It was so fantastic to be able to take individual portraits of everyone. Have I ever mentioned how much I love that? And how much I love my 85mm lens.
You can see them all (in color) here.
These ladies like to wake us up early on saturdays, but the fresh eggs are totally worth it.
I recently decided to pull out my old 35mm film camera and start using it to photograph everyday life. It was an honorable endeavor, but since my everyday life has consisted pretty much solely of work, I haven’t had a whole lot to photograph (besides what I was already photographing work, which is a different story).
Any time not spent working has been devoted to setting up the new apartment my husband and I moved into; so that’s what I’ve been shooting. It’s been an awesome change for us (from teeny tiny studio to two bedroom duplex), and I’m thrilled to have some more space to decorate, but things have been moving extremely slowly.
Two months in and we’re just now getting around to buying couches.
Anyway, I’ll be posting a few installments of the film from our new neighborhood and home.
