Recently, I’ve been sharing some collections related to testing an analogue camera.

This camera was a mainstay for years

And this young woman could actually have, and deserve, a collection of her own !
She is, in any case, the sample photo for my model photography collection

She drops by almost every year for a photo shoot.

Why I never used this photo from our first series is a mystery to me

Helen 2022 ... It’s great to work with a model and feel a kind of friendship developing. A few #analog #portraits on #film with a #Minolta and #Ilford XP2 400 . #analog is timeless. #filmphotography #ishootfilm #grainisgood #minoltasrt101 #rokkor50mm #model #portrait #ilford #blackandwhite

Years ago, I bought a Hi-Matic 7s.
Luckily for me, I was able to buy my collection of cameras before the analogue revival happened.
So I was able to buy loads of cameras for around 20 euros each .
It’s always nice to test something out with film ! I always had something to test with in my bag.
I even did some model photography with cameras I was testing using expired film and so on...
You don’t actually need much to use a camera.
You’ve got your film, your subject, the aperture and your shutter speed.

For anyone actually reading this, my daughter is now 21, so it’s been a while
(and the photo itself was most likely taken with my Minolta SRT 101b / Rokkor 50mm 1,7 )
